Also Hezbo ideology and objectives are no one business, as much as aoumieh's objectives too...
I dont agree with them therefor i can ally myself with them
but you are right, its not my business
what is my business is the political decisions behind the militia men
because the consequences affect me when hezbo declares wars or block the nation.
my question is: if the agression stoped on the south, would it still be a right to hold weapons and plan attacks on isreal just coz its the enemy? |
listen i dont think they are specifically entitled to weapons just to fight Israel. a common misconception in our culture is that Hezbollah was born out of a need to resist Israel. May be true, but remember that the southerners were ecstatic when Israel came and cleaned the shed from the Palestinians, who were running their own de facto state in the south during the 80s (without even being nationals). Hezbollah is a needed counter balance not to just the heavily armed Palestinians in the refugee camps, but also to make sure the government doesnt bend to American/Israeli pressure to nationalize the Palestinians and settle them (most likely) near the Shebaa Farms. As much as Hezbollah like to claim that they sympathize with the Palestinians, they would love nothing more than to return the Palestinian refugees back to their real home and basically get them off of Lebanon's back.
