Thoughts ?
Since there's lots of Hezb supporters here Imma ask y'all some questions
-
Do you consider Hezbollah an Iranian proxy?
-
Do you think Hezbollah is behind the pomegranate and xanax incident when it was smuggled to Saudi and got Lebanese exports banned?
-
Was Hezbollah behind the death of Loqman Slim?
-
Was Subhi Tfayli a bad leader?
-
Was the war on Harakit Amal a good idea? Would it have been a good idea if Hezbollah had won (is it only a bad idea because Hezbollah did not win)
-
Do you agree that Hezbollah tried to establish wilayt al fakih in the beginning of its existence? Do you think that's a good thing for Lebanon?
-
Would you consider 2006 a victory, stalemate, or defeat?
-
Do you consider the other resistance groups in Lebanon essential to your success?
-
Was May 7 a bit too much?
As an atheist, center-left (I'm slightly to the left of Biden) and liberal arab, I know Israel isn't the devil on earth
I hate the "You are Israeli ? SHUT THE FUCK, YOU GENOCIDAL MONSTER CHILD EATING DEVIL PSYCHOPATH" arab bullshit.
I know the Jewish people only wanted a tiny state after centuries of horror and one of the worst crime in history.
I know Israel has been attacked relentlessly since it's creation, starting with an ethnic cleansing campaign war conducted by arab armies (that they lost), and has endured more terror attacks than any country in human history. I also know the Palestinian leadership turned out many good peace deals that would have greatly greatly improved the situation.
I understand considering the circumstances, the history of the jewish people, the incredible trauma of the Holocaust, the total refusal of Western Democracies to save Jews during WW2, and the arab armies total war (they didn't shoot bananas), Ben Gurion who just saw half his people die in indifference and was in the middle of a bloody war judged necessary to push people out of their homes.
Which is one of the reason that I have deep sympathy for this country. I hate the garbage leftist/islamist propaganda bullshit where Israeli is "the evil on earth" but I do confess hugely dislike the occupation of the West Bank (I do understand the withdrawl from Gaza with 0 blockade only brought rockets, which led to a blockade and tons of wars) and as an arab, I may not be muslim but I'm arab and I'm also deeply bothered by the Palestinian sentiment of profund national humiliation (which is partly genuine antisemitism+islamism and partly understandable). The tensions in Jerusalem also deeply bother me (Yes, I do understand the Al Aqsa Mosque was built right on top of the Western Wall, which is a really stupid idea when you think about it. I do understand the guys in the Al Aqsa Mosque were stone throwers who ran in it to hide, I know the Sheikh Jarra drama is a complicated court case about some palestinian dude refusing to pay rent to some dude who bought a house paying for it)
I have a big hatred for Hezbollah but I do understand why many Shias support it. The Shiah of Lebanon are in some sense like the Jews. They have been treated like utter garbage for centuries, not genocided or mass tortured, a lot more numerous than the jews, and Shiah have a huuuge strong sophisticated country (Iran) but they have been treated really really badly in places where they were

Hello, I am Lebanese and am looking for some insight into how iranians generally feel about HA and Iranโs financing of the group.
What would you say is the opinion about them within the general iranian population?
What is the probability that Iran would ever halt its funding? If that probability is high, what would lead to such a decision?
This post is a personal opinion. Regardless how obvious and clear it is that Hezbollah executed all the crimes and attacks, you will never see them claiming responsibility for them. On the contrary, you will see them condemning some of these acts no matter how absurd their justifications are. They will say that everything against them is a propaganda coming from western media. Hezbollah members and some of their supporters know that Hezbollah did all these crimes but they will never acknowledge it. They will always play the victims and say they are being attacked. They believe that dying in the battlefield is a blessing and something to be proud of so why would they mind Hezbollah doing such crimes ? For them the end justifies the means. Hezbollah wants civil unrest in Lebanon as it is his last resort to oppress the Lebanese people. He already threatened the people and the media in multiple occasions. In what other way will he take over ? Why do you think Hezbollah is against Neutrality ? How is Neutrality bad for our country ?
The paradox of tolerance states that if a society is tolerant without limit, its ability to be tolerant is eventually seized or destroyed by the intolerant.

It is of great wrongdoing that most english speaking 'left' sites, forums, e.t.c fail to report what happens in Palestine in detail. Google has already made it hard for people to to learn anything on the war due to its algorithm, which dont show up the recent events, just 'opinion' articles made by Zionist friendly columnists.
But we will keep reporting in hopes more people know in greater detail what happens in the region. The updates are very important to be left amiss.
The recent war in Gaza have pushed Hamas to start solidifying its position in the anti-imperialist camp. Till some years ago, Hamas was dancing left and right between the imperialist camp and the anti-imperialist camp, periodically adopting pro-imperialist positions like the opposition to the Baath in Syria and the support to the Zionist backed Contras (FSA). But the recent war shows that there is no room anymore for Hamas to maneuver; the Zionists made it clear that there wont be any 'Palestine' to be left salvaged by the soldiers of Allah, Hamas. Thus, Hamas first needs to have a Palestine to spread the message of Allah. For that, they need allies, and therefore they can't afford to antagonize their own arab governments that oppose imperialism and Zionism.
On June 28, it was announced that the leaders of Hamas and Hezbollah meet each other and discussed the recent developments on the front. Al-mayadeen, Hezbollah's media outlet, wrote the following:
>Nasrallah and Haniyeh affirmed the depth of the relationship between Hezbollah and Hamas, and its primary position in the axis of resistance
What is important is to note 'the axis of resistance'. This writing implies that Hamas's position within the anti-imperialist camp, represented in the region by the governments of Syria and Iran, is not only solidified, but it is taking a primary, vanguard position. No wonders, the biggest force of the imperialist camp in the region, Israel fights day to day against Hamas. Hamas needs to ally with with anti-imperialist camp, be it socialists, communists, or Shia if it wants to survive. There is no more room for maneuvers.
One day later, Israeli settlers agreed to vacate some posts they illegally holding in Beita. One would say, that this is a positive development. Of course, this would be nothing more than a falsification; we quote here from an article in the middleeasteye:
>Israel is planning to evacuate dozens of Jewish settlers on Friday from the illegal set
