Clashes in General Strike in Lebanon

Posted by Matt in May 7th, 2008

BEIRUT, Lebanon — Supporters of the Iranian-backed group Hezbollah, trying to enforce a general strike called by labor unions, clashed with government supporters and blocked roads in Beirut on Wednesday, escalating tensions as the country remained mired in its worst political crisis since the 1975-1990 civil war.

The government said on Tuesday that it would act against a private telephone network operated by Hezbollah in south Lebanon and the southern suburbs of Beirut and accused the militant group of placing several spy cameras on a road outside the airport to monitor pro-government officials. The cabinet also dismissed the airport’s director of security, a figure close to Hezbollah.

What is REALLY going on in Lebanon? Hezbollah's cakewalk
After countless days of deadly politically motivated killings have shaken Lebanon, pitting supporters of the US-backed government against the Hezbollah-led opposition. The recent violence is the worst since the end of the 15-year civil war in 1990. But what's REALLY happening in Lebanon? SUMMARY: Why has Hezbollah taken to the streets of Lebanon? The governments decision to dismantle Hezbollah's telecommunication and surveillance networks at Beirut airports. Hassan Nasrallah was not going to sit around and watch his security network be torn to pieces. Is this a coup? No. Sheikh Nasrallah recently said "Had we [Hezbollah] wanted a coup, they(government leaders)would have woken up to find themselves in jail or thrown in the sea." Who is responsible? Sa'ad Hariri, the US and Saudi...

Norman Finkelstein - Hezbollah, the Honour of Lebanon
Norman Finkelstein, a Jewish American political scientist and author, specializing in Jewish-related issues and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in particular talks about the Lebanese militia Hezbollah and openly supports and praises their resistance: "They (Hezbollah) show courage, they show discipline, I respect that" On Israeli defeat and consequential withdrawal from Lebanon in 2000, Finkelstein says:"But the reality was -- and everyone understood it -- that the Israeli attitude was: We are going to knock out Hizbullah. They began planning for a new war right after they were forced to leave in 2000. They found their excuse, their pretext, in July 2006, but there is no question among rational people that Israel was never going to let the Hizbullah victory go by." "There is no way that...

filistin lebanon libanon hizbullah hezbollah hisbollah George Galloway (born 16 August 1954) is a British politician noted for his socialist views, confrontational style, and rhetorical skill. He is currently the Respect Member of Parliament (MP) for Bethnal Green and Bow, and was previously elected as a Labour Party MP for Glasgow Hillhead and Glasgow Kelvin. Galloway is perhaps best known for his vigorous campaign to overturn economic sanctions against Iraq, and for his visits to Saddam Hussein in 1994 and 2002. He was expelled from the Labour Party in October 2003 when a party body decided that he had brought the party into disrepute over the 2003 invasion of Iraq, when he called the Labour government "Tony Blair's lie machine",[1] and stated that British soldiers should "refuse to...

Hezbollah TV - Lebanon
April 2005 Dramas depicting Jews sacrificing Christian children and quizzes like 'Name your Favourite Terrorist' have made Hezbollah TV as popular as Al Jazeera. "It's the most extreme form of anti- Western propaganda," states Dr Rubeinstein from the Jewish affairs council. It's been banned in Europe but in the Arab world, it's uncompromising stance against Israel has won it millions of viewers. "It's message is rousing for the Palestinian. It talks to the heart," explains one viewer.
