Lebanon used to be a very nice
place I am told. Pretty. Prosperous. Tolerant. The government of
Lebanon has essentially folded up over the last several years and
operational control of the country is now in the hands of fundamentalist
goatfucker Islamic fanatics. It is about to cost the people of Lebanon
dearly.
Assuming the
mainstream media is to be believed Israel is about to move into Lebanon
with a significant ground action. They are tired of their country being
attacked by what is allegedly non-state actors who seem to be able to
act with impunity.
Nature
abhors a vacuum. If you don't run your country somebody else will do
it for you, and it is likely to be somebody you don't like and who has
no interest in protecting the people and property of the locals. If
those people piss off a nation-state that is both willing and capable of
expressing it's unhappiness you and your property are at some risk.
That's life in the real world.
