Lebanon’s financial crisis
 

Those poor bleeding civilians, it looks as if another civil war is on the horizon if they don't sort this crisis out, I think Hezbollah is one of those heavily-armed religious groups that's mentioned even though they haven't been named. They could try and remove Hezbollah's political influence but that would just kickstart a civil war, a catch 22 scenario me thinks as they're damned if they do and damned if they don't.
The Arab League isn't doing anything as usual, what a bleeding toothless organisation it is. :o
The harrowing consequences of Lebanon’s financial crisis are too big for the world to ignore

Its the same impotent and deeply corrupted political structures that already allowed and led to the desastrous explosion in the port.
The same power structures still in place. A whole state busy with not pointing finger too obviously at Hezbollah responsibles.

Say, why should we care to pump debt-based "money" into this rotten hellhole of religious terorrism, corruption and merciless internal power politics? We finance Hezbollah by that. We finance corruption by that.

I think we would be better off to go from household to household, arm every household up with firearms and ammunition, and let them having the means to deal with their governing elites by themselves. A whole population armed, angered and going after the ruling cliques' throats, cannot be stopped. And if the people would not raise while being enabled this way, why again would they be worth out money then?
All we always seem to acchieve is that the bad and the criminal and the extremist and the terroris prevails.

So, as it is, I see every investement into Lebanon as a waste. The Europeans already do the same folly with the Palestinian Arabs, directly pumping huge amounts of money into terrorism and weapons and arms sales by Iran and Hamas-funded militias, and calling that financing of terrorism and the next anti-Israle war "development aid". Hilarious. Irresponsible. Stupid.



We should instead build a wall around it, to keep Hezbollah in and to keep Iran and China out.

That would work for me :yep:

I wonder if that will pressure Hezbollah to go into a another round of fighting against us. Not something impossible.

Aye, that might happen Abu, we don't know how far Iran has infested itself into Hezbollah's hierarchy as yet though, I'm assuming that Hezbollah would not willingly go into a conflict with Israel without outside help from another state like Iran to bankroll them. :doh:

Ah my friend the reason Hezbollah exists is because of Iran, they gave the order back in the 80's. They supply them with missiles, technology to produce it locally too. Guns, money etc. But Hezbollah does have some kind of independence. Hezbollah is fed by the love of the people, this is why it runs a bank, food shops(that are cheaper than others ofc) etc. They try to be as independent as possible and give better life or at least make the show that they make life better to get support from people.

They care so much because they saw how we "lost" the war in Lebanon(1982-2000) because of no support from local population, this is the reason they came to be so big. Once you are seen more badly than good by the natives you are done.
