Civil War in Lebanon Hezbollah Shuts Down Pro Government TV
There is officially a war on in Lebanon. At least eleven people have been killed in fighting today as Hezbullah and its allies in Amal have gained control of some neighborhoods in Beirut. Among other things, Hezbullah and its allies have succeeded in shutting down the pro-government Future TV network. Let's go to the videotape to see that, and then I will have more.
Beirut Spring has some pictures taken at the ransacked Future TV offices, which offer proof that it's Syria and Iran that are behind what's going on in Beirut today. The areas that the Shiites control are in the Muslim sectors of Beirut. Here are more details.
Shi'ite opposition gunmen seized control of large areas of Beirut's Muslim sector from Sunni foes loyal to the US-backed government on Friday, in street battles that...

Civil War in Lebanon لبنان News Anchor slams Hezbollah
The only woman who comes to mind while watching this video of Lebanese TV presenter Sahar Al-Khatib is Wafa Sultan. I have never seen any other woman in the Arab world with the poise and the you-know-what to put the terrorists in their place. In this clip, which was shown (apparently live) on Lebanon's LBC TV on May 9 (this past Friday) Al-Khatib blasts Lebanon's opposition leaders (Hezbullah and Amal) following the shutting down of the pro-government Future TV by the supposedly neutral Lebanese army and Hezbullah.
If this woman is willing to talk to Israelis (unlike the crying fool who is Lebanon's Prime Minister), I'll bet we could find her work with a much more open media here in Israel. I'd go to bat for her.

Civil War in Lebanon لبنان Army in Cahoots with Hezbollah
The IDF has declared a high alert on Israel's border with Lebanon. Let's go to the videotape and then I'll have the second part of this story.
One of the reasons the IDF is so worried about what's going on in Lebanon is that it is clear that not only is the Lebanese army not going to do anything to stop Hezbullah - they are actually helping Hezbullah out.
Witness accounts of Hezbollah's actions in Lebanon in the course of the incidents demonstrate not only that the Lebanon Army is refraining from trying to bar Hezbollah from operating throughout the country, but is in fact carrying out orders from the organization and granting it media cover.
Lebanese media reports clearly indicate that Hezbollah is practicing censorship over broadcasts of the various networks. Nonetheless, it can be...

Civil War in Lebanon لبنان Hezbollah Fighting in Aaley
Near Beirut, control of several Lebanese villages loyal to pro-government Druze leader Walid Jumblatt has been handed to the army after an attack by Hizbollah. At least 36 people were killed in the fighting in Aaley and the surrounding region, east of Beirut, yesterday. The battle eased after Jumblatt asked a rival Druze leader allied to the Shi'ite Islamist movement to mediate an end to the fighting.
Arab League foreign ministers have held an emergency meeting in Cairo and agreed to send a mediation delegation to Beirut.
Secretary General Amr Moussa said that a meeting of the League had called on the Lebanese speaker, the Lebanese prime minister and leaders of the opposition to attend a meeting with an Arab League committee.
An 18-month political stand-off between the Hizbollah-led...

Civil War Coming in Lebanon لبنان
Hezbullah leader Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah today accused the Lebanese government of declaring war on Hezbullah as his group blocked roads leading to Beirut's airport for a second straight day.
Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah said Monday that the Lebanese government's decision to declare the Iranian-backed group's telecommunications network illegal was tantamount to a declaration of war.
"This decision is first of all a declaration of war and the launching of war by the government... against the resistance and its weapons for the benefit of America and Israel," Nasrallah told a news conference, vowing to "cut off the hand" that tries to dismantle it.
He was commenting on a government decision to dismantle and take legal action over the group's network.
But Nasrallah's...

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?

Who is responsible?

Deal or No Deal - Lebanon
June 2008
An appearance of peace has returned to Lebanon; but as Hezbollah grows in power, political tensions are becoming palpable. Has the country finally entered a long-term settlement, or are we witnessing the preliminaries to a new conflict?
Thanks to massive financial and military backing from Iran and Syria, Hezbollah has emerged as a powerhouse over the past years. Keen to display its power, it has repeatedly had the upper hand in skirmishes with government forces. A traditional enemy of Israel, Hezbollah has recently shifted its attention to Lebanon. Sunnis and supporters of the government have now become terrified to speak out against it: 'I doubt the Lebanese president can do anything about them because they see themselves as stronger than the state. They are a state within a...
