Lepus Rex BS: Is Hezbollah Winning? (527* d) RE: BS: Is Hezbollah Winning? 15 Aug 06


Wow, you Israel supporters sure are sore losers, heh. As predicted, a clear victory for Hezbollah. Told ya so! All Hezbollah really needed to do to "win" was survive, showing Israel's impotence, which they did. And what's more, their popularity is now at an all-time high, not only in Lebanon, but all over the Middle East. They (and their sucessful tactics) are an inspiration to hundreds of millions. They remain the most powerful Lebanese military, and their social organisations will play a major role in re-building the country. And, most importantly, they've (once again) shattered Israel's overhyped aura of invincibility, and (once again) the Israelis are leaving Lebanon with their tails between their legs. And how lovely, that it happened just a short Katyusha-flight from Ain-Jalut, where Hülegü's Mongols were similarly brought down to Earth in the eyes of the Muslims. Yeah, Hezbollah really got their asses kicked. ;)

By the way, last week, on the NPR show "Fresh Air," there was a fucking awesome interview with Augustus Richard Norton, an expert on the region. If anyone is interested in the Israel/Lebanon conflict, and has forty-five minutes or so to listen to it, here it is. Very, very fucking highly recommended.

Old Guy: I hate to say it, but maybe just go back to the copy-and-pasting news articles. Like that story about the Druze dude denouncing Hezbollah. (As if you even know what a Druze is. Admit it: When you read that the Druze leader lived in a castle, you pictured him riding a unicorn, didn't you?) Or, better yet, take my earlier advice and fuck off back to those racist blogs you love so well. Fossil-brained Twentieth Century relics such as yourself have nothing to add to this conversation.

Peace: Uh, yeah... Rwanda?
