Lebanese Civil War Puns

Obviously, my fear from abroad is that with the collapse of the state and the looming Iranian nuclear program, Hezbollah will use any excuse to turn its guns on Israel in order to invite a war with Israel and consolidate power before their power is truly threatened from within. Lebanon is already basically a broken trash heap where everyone who can flee is trying to do just that. The devastation brought about by a conflict with Israel can be viewed as simply a cynical means to a vision of Shia domination of the state by Nasrallah and Khamenei.

Would love to hear what you guys think.

Imam Musa al-Sadr Biography

"He claimed to support the Palestine resistance movement, but his relations with the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) were tense and uneasy at best. During the 1973 clashes between the PLO and the Lebanese army, Imam Musa reproached the Sunni Muslims for their chorus of support for the guerrillas. On the one hand he chastised the government for failing to defend the south from Israeli aggression, but on the other he criticized the PLO for shelling Israel from the south and hence provoking Israeli retaliation. He consistently expressed sympathy for Palestinian aspirations, but he was unwilling to countenance actions that exposed Lebanese citizens, and especially Shi'ite citizens of the south, to additional suffering."

"Imam Musa prophetically warned the PLO that it was not in its interests to establish a state within a state in Lebanon. "

The trouble began earlier when Palestinian guerrillas, driving jeeps through the district of Ayn-al-Rummanah, reportedly opened fire on the congregation outside a Maronite Christian church. This led to the Bus Massacre in Ain el Remmeneh

Lebanon formed a unity government in which Hezbollah and its allies hold effective veto power

"But it also marks the start of a challenging new era in which leaders must contain rising sectarian tensions, prepare for a parliamentary election next year and start talks on the fate of Iranian- and Syrian-backed Hezbollah’s military wing."
