Unconfirmed. Israeli intelligence source says Hasan Nasrallah has fled to Syria. #Lebanon

#Hezbollah
Now THAT could be a good thing...not all messes are bad, but Lebanon used to be a wonderful place before the civil and religious wars of the 1980s; what no one is going to want to see is a return to that sort of civil war and sectarian violence.

I was telling my wife about some glitzy spy/theft movie from the 70's, Cary Grant sort of thing. At the conclusion the man and woman have the jewels/money/whatever. He suggests they run away to Beruit, and she's all agog and agrees emphatically "Beruit!" in a tone of almost disbelief at her luck. About five years later (as I recall) bombs started going off. Movie ring a bell with anyone?

WOWWWWWWW

But they are too chickenshit to say that about antifafa.
It is only a glorious revolution if the US State Department and friends want it to happen, otherwise, it is sectarian militia fighters with direct links to Jihadi or Iranian terrorists.

This too shall pass.
If the protesters are carrying those Communist clenched fist banners, is it possible that we have another example of no good disaster going to waste? Another emergency taken over by Communist/globalists for their own purposes?

IIRC Beirut used to be known as the Paris of the Middle East or was that Tehran?

This is the problem with a civil war. In post 845 you see the communists banners go up. Huge banners. Not home made. They were ready. They were waiting for the right moment. It can happen here. And in the marxist cities of Portland and Seattle the government itself, on up to the level of governor, is complicit. Add in a disaster here . . . .

They killed one of the about 5 guys in the WORLD who could front-fix Lebanon and the rest have vanished (so far as I know).

Rafik Hariri, RIP.

His BROTHER MIGHT be up to it but that's a gamble.

Not much going on at the moment; guess the people couldn't do another riot today so far.
