Dude have you ever been to Lebanon? Have you ever seen the Syrian "forces" in Lebanon? They didn't have sht. Nothing that would stand against 1 day of conflict with the IDF.Originally posted by: Jhhnn
Please. Gotta love the way that the rabid right instantly blames it on teh ebil Syrians. The only reason the civil war stopped the first time was that the Syrians sent troops, put the lid on. The Bush Admin and the Israelis couldn't stand that, insisted that the Syrians leave, so that the Israelis could bomb the piss out of lebanon over a minor border incident...
Hell hadn't they not agreed to get out of Lebanon after they killed our pride PM harriri, we would have kicked them out with mere hunting rifles and shotguns let alone Lebanese militias. They didn't even have 1 single effective anti-craft measure. The only reason Syrian forces were in Lebanon after the civil war, was to symbolize Syrian control, that and to backup the terrorist intelligence units they had in their that did nothing but kidnap any free Lebanese objecting to Syrian cruelty and criticizing their policies.
Syrian forces were and still ARE the disgrace off all that is Arabic and Muslim.They were nothing but a bunch of thugs and thieves that the Lebanese ISF ( Internal Security Forces) were commanded by their higher ups to not arrest nor attack NO MATTER WHAT.
I have seen nice and roomy houses in Lebanon with values north of $200,000 being taken over by Syrian troops with no one raising a finger nor uttering a word in fear that they would get kidnapped and never see the sun again. They were ruthless savages that did Lebanon the worst of disfavors.
I have little doubt that current flareup is quite in line with what the Israelis and the Bush Admin want, and have been working towards all along. "Creative Destruction" is what they call it...
This is exactly what Bush and his Israeli gang want:
1- Hizbollah getting hated more and more each day by Lebanese Christians and Muslims
2- Lebanon is destroyed again after all the post-civil war rebuilding, middle-east tourism and trade (which Lebanon had a huge chunk of) deflects from Lebanon and straight into Israel making them $$$ on top of $$$
3- Lebanon is weakened and falls apart on the long run which means more and more of #2
4- Hizbollah busies itself with the internal struggle, isolating it from anything that has to do with Israel for decades maybe.
5- Syria's bargaining chip is Lebanon, Hizbollah would have to kill and or subjugate almost every Sunni and Maronite Christian in it's way to get the full control. Then on top of it, they will have to fight with the combined LAF / UN force in the southern Lebanon area, giving the west and the Arab world the perfect excuse to insert their forces and fight Hizbollah and their allies.
I could keep going forever, the bottom line is, whenever Lebanon is weakened everyone else benefits.
This is the downside of being tolerant to Shiites in your country, they take over at some point.
Every Shiite I have talked to thinks they have this divine Islamic right to be the leaders and masters of Lebanon. Never have the Shiites moved my country forward, Sunnis, Christians and Druze bring business, bring civilization, bring investments, prepare educated generations that believe in freedom and equal rights. While on the other hand, the Shiites bring destruction, nagging and more destruction, then Shiite Islamic Fascist states.
I am ashamed, but I have to admit, the only entity on this planet that has communicated with the Shiites in Lebanon in the language they understand is the IDF. Criminals need Criminals to communicate with.
I had been patient before, but I have just had it. No one goes near the Shiites in Lebanon, no one inflicts injustice against them, they are equally represented in parliament, they have equal rights, yet they still complain and complain, the Shiite community in Lebanon in general doesn't deserve an equal citizen treatment any longer. They have become traitors and need be all hanged where they are found. We have hanged traitors before we can do it again.
I say let the drums of war sound, the Lebanese have been tolerating Shiite discontent and violence for decades, the Shiites have managed somehow to drain our sea of patience, the more Sunnis and Christians hold back their anger for the sake of the country, the more Shiites think no one dares take action against them.
Let their be no more silence, either there is a free and progressive Lebanon, or their should be no Lebanon at all.
