In an apparent return of favor, the Lebanese Army deployed 2 Helicopters to help firefighters in Cyprus face one of the largest wildfires the island has ever had. It’s a relief to know our Army has hellis to spare.

It’s a good thing normal people don’t watch Hezbollah’s Almanar, or I would have been concerned by the effect of this blatant misinformation..

The question is: Why would demonstrators who “simply want to go home” cut off a main road with burning tires?

Palestinian youths at the Beddawi camp were pushed to attack a Lebanese Army outpost. 3 have died and 40 are wounded as a result..You can’t argue with a bunch of women and kids who “want to go home”. But when home in this case is a Palestinian camp that is still being shelled for containing terrorists, and when those “youths” start insulting the soldiers and throwing stones and attacking them, you could conclude that it is much more than impatience to go home that is driving the mobs.The soldiers reacted firmly, after repeated and clear warnings, to prevent this from turning into a large-scale “intifada”. That was the right move from the Army which should never compromise when it comes to its authority.The Naher Al Bared residents should understand that the Fateh Al Islam terrorists are a danger to them as much as they are to Lebanon, and they should wait until the job is finished. The current conditions of the Palestinians who had fled the Naher Al Bared camp are not exemplary and should be improved. But they should also be made to understand that the Army is no pushover, and they can’t just run over it to willingly or unwillingly protect a bunch of terrorists.

If the Deddé cave-dwelling terrorists were vegetarians, they could still be alive today
