Does anyone know what's the endgame of hezb here??

I'm against both hezb and israel and support Palestine, but what the fuck is hezb's endgame here?

After October 7, hezb on October 8 was the one who started poking israel not the other way around, against the Lebanon's wishes. It escalated and dragged Lebanon into a one sided war, they bought pagers from the terrorist enemy which lead to a huge terrorist attack against them, turns out they have moles that helped bomb every important member. They were barely able to stop the land invasion. When things went south for them they ran to the government for help to stop the war that they started and then refuse to abide with the agreement.

The end result:
- they became much weaker
- established their weapons are as good as a slingshot.
- established they are dumber than a rock they bought Booby trapped pagers.
- they are infested with israeli moles.
- New President and prime minister.
- Hezb put the government in a corner to be America's and Israel's bitch to get out of the mess they started.
- Hezb threatening a civil war cause they chickened out of disarming and they claim these weapons are for our protection.
- Israel occupies 5 points of lebanon now.
- the south's lands and landmarks almost annihilated.
- Hezb twist facts to justify their failure as a success and justify their existence.

Everything they did doesn't benefit them at ALL. It slightly benefited lebanon, but by far the biggest benefiter here is israel, they now have soldiers on OUR LAND and hezb gave them a reason to BOMB parts of lebanon. Any sane person looking at these fact would find that hezb needs to go, it's a threat to Lebanon’s sovereignty and unironically can be called "Sahayne" and "bala sharaf" the words they like to throw around whenever someone disagrees with them.

Also the only way to liberate palestine through war is by having every Arab country against them with good arsenal and planning, not some measily iran backed terrorist militia, that mistakenly buys pagers from the enemy. Until that happens the only way for lebanon to help ...

Abandoned Lebanon by James Kerwin

Introduction

Back in 2016, I came across an article which marked the ten-year anniversary of the end of the 2006 Lebanon war by asking eighteen of their photographers to reflect on the images they had taken. The result was brilliant and touching, and subsequently inspired me to research and visit Lebanon myself. In 2019, I was at last able to set foot in the country of which I had been dreaming and which I had been frantically investigating for three years. I realised then how fast Lebanon was changing, and would change again – a feeling that was later confirmed by my second trip in 2021. This is why I feel so blessed to have had the opportunity to capture even a few of the wonders Lebanon hosts, hoping they will remain standing and even be restored in the future.

Nestled against the Mediterranean Sea and flanked by Syria to the north and east, with Israel to the south, the land now known as Lebanon was part of the Ottoman Empire for four centuries, before coming under French rule after World War I. Lebanon gained independence from France in 1943, but the Allies occupied the region until the very end of World War II. Lebanon’s history since its independence has been marked by alternating periods of turmoil, and political stability and prosperity, the latter being built on Beirut’s position as a regional centre for finance, business, and trade.

Not long after World War II, in 1947 another war broke out, this time with Israel. The Palestine War (or the War of Independence) has left many scars which can still be seen across the country today. An estimated 100,000 Palestinians fled to Lebanon during the war with Israel, and were not permitted to return after the ceasefire in 1949. As of 2019 there are still an estimated 175,000 to 450,000 Palestinian refugees living in Lebanon, with at least half still in decades-old refugee camps which nowadays resemble permanent settlements and neighbourhoods.

During the 1960s, Lebanon was relatively calm. During this time Beirut even earned the nickname “the Paris of the...

Just the kind of representation Lebanon needs! A liar and a con artist.

If you guys didnt know, this is Hussein Farhat, he is Lebanese and lives in Canada.

He has blown up in the fitness community all around the globe in the past few years for his insane transformation.

He claimed he was a lifetime natural (never took steriods/performance enhancing drugs) and achieved the transformation shown in the picture in less than 2 years.

He used all that attention and extreme genetic ability to lie (his dad must be a politician) to scam people and lie to young gym goers that he knows the way to have an insane physic naturally. Just buy his program!

Two days ago he was outted as a fake and turns out bro was blasting steroids and drugs for 16 months. And now he's making more excuses and lying more than ever to benefit.

I love how even outside of Lebanon, he is showing that our people's best skills are to lie and be con artists. Just what we needed!

What a joke.

With Love, From Iran [Warning: Long Post]

Dear people of Lebanon, as an Iranian, it is mind boggling how different some of our views are surrounding geopolitics involving your illegitimate neighbor. And I didn't know you guys hated our fucking guts so much. I also didn't know that we were oppressing people, other than our own, but some of you refer to us as your oppressors which is a very weird thing to see. What I do know for a fact, is that this sub and NewIran are heavily compromised and infiltrated with Zionist losers spreading propaganda and cosplaying as Lebanese, Iranian, etc., creating an echo chamber and a unilaterally Pro-Israel voice, and I’m absolutely sure that NewIran was created by the Zionists as a psyop stage to try to dismantle Iran from within. But man, some of you do genuinely hate us. Really, why is that? Is this an Anti-Shia thing? Because as an Ex-Muslim and a Non-Abrahamic ideology beholder, I just don’t understand the reason behind the hatred.

To me, some Shia people in your country called “Buddies of Allah” share the same sense of danger from this land stealing child murdering sex trafficking rogue fanatic terrorist state and want to defend themselves and don’t want their life and shit stolen from them like the Palestinians and don’t want to be Zionist bitch boys like Jordan is or torn apart like Syria is and don’t want to be slaves under a foreign yoke like the Saudis and the Gulf states are, and we’re always glad to help anyone of any faith or race who thinks the same. Now some of you say they’re not the “real” army, and idk how that is our business, but we see them as people standing up to tyranny who are in need of help, and I’m sure if your “real” armed forces shared the same needs and sentiments, we’d help them too.

These racist Israeli cunts are suit and tie wearing religious fanatics who are way worse than turban head Islamic extremists who enforce their religion by their sword. They’re like crab people, hiding under a "modern" western human skin suit. These Zionist fuckers, the Jewish extremists, are on a...

Nawaf Salam gained my respect today.

You know, since he became prime minister, a lot of people used to make fun of him, saying he was weak. Some even called him a leftist or said he was "pro-PLO," whatever that means. They claimed he was bought by Hezbollah or that he was too weak to face anyone and wasn't ready for Lebanon's political scene. But clearly, and I can confidently say this, he is one of the best prime ministers to ever take control of Lebanon in the post-Ta'if era. He is only rivaled by Hariri, and he even superseded Hariri in the files of state sovereignty. It is clear that Nawaf was up to the job, and everyone who doubted him, made fun of him, or even accused him of being a leftist, pro-PLO, or a Hezbollah sympathizer was proved wrong.

Props to the President too.

Story time (28th of September)

I'm a shiite girl, living in a Shia area, and was displaced during the war...

I don't support HA( I actually despise them and not only because they are a brainwashed cult but like for personal reasons too...).

Anyways, we had to live temporary somewhere with another displaced people and there stayed with us some HA memebers so that they can "look after" us... They gave us some money tho ngl.

The day they found out Nasrallah died some of those HA "leaders" was speaking to my dad( well maybe my dad spoke to him first but yeah), he was in fuckin disbelief, for once I felt like these people actually have a brain ( didn't last long, apparently...). He said:" smth must be wrong in our religion, this is insane, maybe our books are wrong, or no maybe we misunderstood smth, a miracle must happen or else, it's all a big lie... The men (aka HA fighters) are crying and they are running away, are we this weak?!!! I actually can't believe this....)

"!معقول الحزب هلقد ضعيف؟" I will never forget this sentence, I was like finally finally they woke up lmao. But tbfh they're brainwashing themselves again lol.

Sorry I'm trying to keep my identity private so I didn't mention the names of the places.
