Re: Violence escalates between Sunni and Shia in Beirut
why is hezbullah being solely to blame? the fact is that lebanon is being used as a proxy war by different regional powers, including the u.s. the saudi-u.s. alliance backs sa'ad harriri's party and is arming them. Its not a case of armed hezbullah vs an entire innocent unarmed population backed by syria and iran. the other factions in lebanon are armed too. after all who is hezbullah shooting at? who is shooting at hezbullah? people talk so much about 'hezbulah' propoganda, what about this propoganda that is being put out? let's stick to the facts for what they are on the ground on what is going on. everything that im saying, is based on what is being reported on al jazeera for the most part. I have been watching bbc news as well, but for the most part its been al jazeera. and what they are saying is radically different than what people are getting from western media reports which is out to paint hezbullah as the red demon in this whole thing.
now i dont know if this was heba's relatives or not. but bbc world news showed a report tonite about a family that was tragically killed by a shia group allied to hezbullah and thier funeral was held today under gun fire. ill try and post that link up once they stick it up on youtube.
