This is very hard to figure out, but easy to understand once you know:

dig @a.gtld-servers.net webadmin2.interbel.net any +norec

webadmin2.interbel.net. still has a stale A record (aka "registered 
host") at the registrar for interbel.net.

The .com servers are answering with that stale record.

Delete the record at the registrar, problem solved.
