Stef,

This is not another view or opinion on things, this is ill intentioned lunacy to serve an agenda you are fighting Stef.

(You know my 2 cents: the least you can do is dump the link to that stupid blog.)

You may need to go to the clinic , because there is something seriously wrong with your head.

You are starting to confuse between water and fire / Light and Dark / Freedom and Tyranny / Honesty and Deception / Good and Evil .

How low you are every time you try to make this a sectarian issue. Nasrallah talks about Chavez’ that he is a man to be respected / but you noooooooo , you have to make it sectarian to please your inner hatred and justify complete surrender to your new masters ( USA and Israel )

I don’t want your shame so don’t force it on me.

Rest Assured that people like you are minorities……

Fadi,

And the majority would be people who support Nassrallah, Chavez & Ahmadinejad?

I really do need a head check, I thought you guys didn’t exist :)

No, I meant by people like you are minorities as people with no dignity .

It is clear that the Lebanese Army is weak. Look at Pakistan. A standoff at a mosque (and adjacent compound) was subdued in a matter of days.

Under Syrian Occupation, the Lebanese Army was turned into a crowd-controlling police force. It is not the job of the army to keep the peace. However, that is all that is has become.

Upgrading the LAF is a high priority.

“Upgrading the LAF is a high priority.”
+1, no questions asked. *I* would like to believe that the army is avoiding more casualities and the flak it would ensure from the other parties that never cared about needless deaths…

Despite the 2 clowns (*hint* Sleiman and Murr) that think that the world rotates around theirs butts and think that everyone would just fine with it if your respective zu’ama says so.

Maybe next week Murr declares a divine victory and one year later fatah al-clowns would celebrate over the remains of liban… (take your time to puke now)

The Sabah blog is a complete joke, Josey is right, get rid of the link.

Regarding the Lebanese Army, its obvious why its taken so long.

1. Old equipment, here in Beirut I see old M113s, some of them with poorly painted over LF symbols from the early 80s. In Mt. Lebanon I saw a rusty old T-55 manned by Lebanese Army soldiers. While I’ve noticed in Beirut most of the small arms are new (I’ve been seeing some AK103s) the Lebanese army still has a mix of small arms in different calibers (one soldier on the corner is holding an M16A1 from the 80s, another has a Finnish Valmet 62, yet another has an old Kalashnikov).

2. Training as stated above was a complete joke under Syrian rule, but its not as if the Lebanese themselves haven’t deliberately kept the army in a state of weakness—In a region that was home to a new military coup everyday, in addition to a place ravaged by sectarianism, what else would you expect?

3. Its my theory that the operation has taken longer because some of the generals have wanted to starve Fatah al Islam out (seige), they were reluctant to lose more men (it just hit the 100 mark earlier this week) so they shelled the place for a week and a bit more.

When rebuilding those places include a zoo or two and some mental institutions for conspiracy theorists, propagandists, and their lunacy.

This dip, Sabbah, has watched one too many episodes of the X-files…:-)

Let me get this strait, Fadi:

How low you are every time you try to make this a sectarian issue. Nasrallah talks about Chavez’ that he is a man to be respected / but you noooooooo

So it’s OK for Hezbollah and Iran to fawn all over the communist dictator of a Catholic country in Latin America, just because they have common cause in their hatred of the USA. That’s not “sectarian”. Right?

But…

you have to make it sectarian to please your inner hatred and justify complete surrender to your new masters ( USA and Israel )

Anybody who aligns with the West (that’s what you mean when you say US and Israel, right?) because they feel they have common cause with the West, is pandering their cause and is guilty of stirring up sectarian issues.

Is that your final answer?

I doubt Sabbah is that way because of the X-files. He merely expresses a venerable Palestinian affection for bizarre lunacy mixed with an overdose of self-victimization: Israel drops radioactive toys on Palestinian children (Arafat), poisons the water Palestinians drink with depleted uranium (Suha the wife), most recently tries to poison Palestinians with sweet and low (http://web.israelinsider.com/views/5812.htm)

In light of that, the story of Israeli war planes flying unseen to bomb a camp in Northern Lebanon is a 100% truth.

To Compare Nahr Al Bared to Bint Jbeil is completely wrong. First of all, those living in Bint Jbeil are lebanese citizens, while The occupants in Nahr Al Bared aren’t. By rebuilding them, you simply are taking away their right of return to their home in Palestine, and denegrating the palestinians even more.

If you don’t care about your country, a least think of the safety of your families.

Anybody who is trying to make this a sectarian problem is a traitor to his country and also a traitor to his family and friends.

And as for Craig,
What amazes me the most is that you support the views of those Terrorists who run the USA and Some Western Countries which the majority of their own people are against there deception and Fascist policies in the middle east, and also against those wars that they are waging on false pretenses just for stealing the oil of the region from its people. And God only knows how many innocent lives have perished like bugs in the name of the fighting against Terrorism that they created in the first place. And we had a small preview of this immoral injustice and lack of respect to innocent human life in the latest war. They destroyed the infrastructure of a whole country and killed 1200 Lebanese Civilians that this idiot Mustapha consider as Iranians for only two soldiers(this is very dangerous rhetoric). And you come to me and tell me that the west represent your values you satanic animal. This by itself tells me a lot about you as an individual.

But Rest assured that Lebanon has a God that is and will always protect it.

If you think that the West is democratic then you are delusional. I guess you would also agree that Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East.

You guys need to take a shower because you are starting to smell really bad.

What amazes me the most is that you support the views of those Terrorists who run the USA and Some Western Countries…

Everything after that was just “blah blah blah” to me, buddy. What are you doing here instead of stinking up KABOBfest?

“If you think that the West is democratic then you are delusional.”

Which particular countries are you talking about? I live in the UK, and that is certainly democratic. There is always room for improvement, but changes of government do take place regularly after properly conducted elections. We have a system of representative democracy that evolved over a long period (centuries) and is still evolving.

I think Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and at least a couple of dozen other countries are the same.

So I am not sure where the delusions come in.

” I guess you would also agree that Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East.”

No. I think the Lebanon is substantially democratic, and so is Iraq. Iran is almost democratic, except for the limits on the choice of candidates. Saudi Arabia is not democratic.
