There are power cuts all over Lebanon now

Lebanon crisis goes from bad to worse

e
/

Last year in August 2020, a large amount of ammonium nitrate stored in the capital city of Lebanon exploded, causing at least 218 deaths, 7,000 injuries. Before this Lebanon was once know to the US public as the place of the 1983 Beirut barracks bombings, before that it was ocne known as the Paris of the Middle East.
The 2020 explosion went off like a small Nuke

Today there seems to be fighting in the streets now AK-47s fired at people, terrorist type guys shooting at police? With RPGs

Now the banks are shut, people can not get their cash, a steel iron barricade or steel windows and doors shutting off the bank buildings like a fortress closed down while people from the oustide pound and bang trying to ask for their cash back.

Will Israel pay for its destruction of other towns or maybe not, Abby Martin talking assasinations and chatting with drunkard stoner Joe Rogan about 'Reparations'. She hosted Breaking the Set on the Russian state-funded network RT America from 2012 to 2015, and then launched The Empire Files in that same year as an investigative documentary and interview series on Telesur. In 2004, she campaigned for John Kerry's presidential campaign, but became disillusioned with the left–right paradigm, a concept proposing that societies have a tendency to divide themselves into ideological opposites.

Reading PAST JAYNZE's headlines and going thru the link

Quote:

In a post to his Telegram channel Monday, Kadyrov pleaded "to the international community" calling for a peaceful solution to the conflict, and said that the Chechen Republic is prepared to provide its own units as "peacekeeping forces" in the event they are needed. - Newsweek


You wouldn't know it bc western press/ social media doesn't report it, but Russia and China have both called for negotiations towards peace, and Kadyrov's post is in line with that.

The two major religions in Lebanon are Christianity and Islam. I found these:

Quote:

In 1976 Syria intervened on behalf of the Christians, and in 1982 Israeli forces invaded in an effort to drive Palestinian forces out of southern Lebanon.
So, I guess Syria really does believe in religious freedom.

The government system is complicated. Lebanon was originally founded by Christians and Druze, and the government was dominated by Christians.
Because of the influx of Palestinian refugees whihc bolstered the Muslim presence. the government is structured as follows:

Half of Parliament seats are allocated to Christians, half to Muslims. The president is a Maronite Christian; the speaker of the Parliament is a Shi'a Muslim; and the prime minister is a Sunni Muslim. However, the most effective military force in Lebanon is Hezbollah, which is Shia (in general, Shia Muslims are more tolerant than Sunni. By contrast, Hamas, based in Gaza, is Sunni.)

Lebanon's problems, as far as I can tell, are corruption, incompetence, and surges of refugees from Syria that Lebanon has a hard time absorbing.

Quote:

FACT SHEET
www.unhcr.org 1

January 2022 Lebanon remains the country hosting the largest number of refugees per capita, with the Government estimation of 1.5 M Syrian refugees + some 13,715 refugees of other nationalities. The socio-economic downturn coupled with the COVID-19 pandemic and Beirut blast have all contributed to nine out of ten Syrian refugees living in extreme poverty.

It's not a "civil war". Israel is attacking Lebanon. Again.

Last time Israel attacked, it tried a ground invasion. Hezbollah, a militia which is Lebanon's de facto army, beat the pants offa Israel which had to retreat with heavy losses.

This time, Israel is using missile strikes.

Israel's reason for invading now is that they claim Hezbollah launched a rocket into the Golan Heights (Israel occupied Syria) which killed kids on a soccer field.

Hezbollah denies responsibility.

As sometimes happens when air defenses are active, AD missiles sometimes miss their target and land and explode elsewhere. Kiev is INFAMOUS for claiming that their errant AD missiles are Russian strikes on civilian areas,

And I would bet this is the same thing. But I wouldn't put it past Israel to deliberately kill some Syrian kids on a soccer field and claim Hezbollah did it (false flag).

After all, when you've already killed 30,000+ civilians including 15,000 children, what's another half-dozen or so?


Fuck Israel.

So, since this is an attack by Israel on Lebanon, why don't you change your title?

Israel Launches Ground Invasion Of Lebanon: Operation Northern Arrows

Update(1908ET): Israel has named the new cross-border offensive "Operation Northern Arrows". Below is an early description by the IDF as posted to Telegram and other government channels [emphasis ZH]:

IDF troops have begun limited, localized and targeted raids against Hezbollah terror targets in the border area of southern Lebanon

In accordance with the decision of the political echelon, a few hours ago, the IDF began limited, localized, and targeted ground raids based on precise intelligence against Hezbollah terrorist targets and infrastructure in southern Lebanon. These targets are located in villages close to the border and pose an immediate threat to Israeli communities in northern Israel.

The IDF is operating according to a methodical plan set out by the General Staff and the Northern Command which IDF soldiers have trained and prepared for in recent months.

The Israeli Air Force and IDF Artillery are supporting the ground forces with precise strikes on military targets in the area.



*****

Col Jacques Baud, Swiss former NATO analyst and security consultant, describes Hezbollah as a DEFENSIVE MILITIA.

Hezbollah's tunnel infrastructure, weaponry, and training are not geared for invasion, and they make no terriorial claims against Israel. But, conversely, Israel makes territorial claims against all nations surrounding it, including Egypt, Jordan, Gaza, Syria, and Lebanon. The Israelis have always adopted "overwhelming violence" as their mantra for peace!

Poor Lebanon. I think the weakness that prevents it from ever gelling as a nation is that it has no border defense. It's constantly being used as a dumping ground for refugees and meddlers, from Palestinians to extremist Sunni Muslims fleeing Syria.
