neither weapons of either group achieved anything.. I will throw a little curve ball here... can you prove that if hizballah did not exist that Israel would have stayed in the south.. you're answer might be yes, but you can';t prove it.. its the chicken and the egg theory.. so them liberating the south which is what i believe you are trying to reference.. might not have been needed if they just never kept their weapons..
not sure if palestinian weapons were ever used against me.. i was very young and lived in the metn so more than likely it was my fellow chrisitans shooting at our buildings... and the syrians of course can't forget them ;) ... and in regards to hizballah they have not personally used there weapons against me ... but because of their weapons, armed aggression caused me to re-live the evacuation i endured when I was young and running away from lebanon from Jounieh.. I never wanted to relive that .. unfortunately I did and It will stay with me forever.. |
You judge people by their precedent and their history. Wherever Israel occupied land in which it did not meet a formidable, organized resistance, it not only remained there but built settlements and brought Jews to implant them on the land. Cases in point are the Golan and the West Bank. There is no doubt that Israel would have remained in southern Lebanon and built Jewish settlements there were it not for the Resistance. Therefore, it is only logical to credit the Resistance with liberating Lebanese land.
