I got back home, said hi to my mum and from the look on her face I already knew.
I asked her “who died?” She couldn’t respond and instead with her fingers signalled 6.
Her cousin one of them, her friends from the village and one of my childhood friends.
Israel killed them
Hey Americans, I might be a know-nothing Brit, but I can't help thinking that arresting your president for raping kids might be a better idea than letting him collapse the global economy and possibly end the world. Just a suggestion.
Lebanese have lived on their ancestral lands for literally thousands of years. Throughout history, they've persevered through hundreds of wars, invasions and occupations, and have continued to live on their land, despite the enormous hardships incurred. Borders may have changed dozens of times over the course of history, but the people have remained, steadfast on their land.
This is not meant to romanticize misery and suffering but to remind folks, especially non-Lebanese observers (but also some Lebanese unfortunately), that just because Israel has declared its intentions of ethnically cleansing and (permanently) occupying (or even annexing) South Lebanon doesn't mean they'll be victorious.
Yes, Lebanon is facing a genocidal war machine, but people assuming Israeli success are significantly underestimating the deep-rooted connection (Southern) Lebanese have with their land, their villages, and their way of life.
Israel will have a far tougher fight on their hands than many assume, and will face fierce resistance against their project as long as one Israeli boot remains on Lebanese soil. They don't get to erase thousands of years of uninterrupted life on these lands just like that.
Trump achieved what no US president did since WW1
- All US bases in the Gulf and around damaged - evacuated or even out of order
- European NATO withdrawal out of Iraq (perhaps even Syria)
- Strategic radars taken out
- Pissed off ALL Gulf States
- United Iran even more
- Disrupted world economy
- Thratened its own "allies"
- burned 30 billions
in not even 4 weeks.
Brilliant.
Please keep your eyes on Lebanon. The entity is getting such an unmerciful beating by the resistance, they're likely to scale up yet further their atrocities against civilians.
This is humiliating. We lift sanctions to expand the global oil supply, then they immediately turned around and say “actually no you get nothing.” 🤦♂️
