Lebanon Parliament meets after blast, government resignation
[EN.ALGHADEER.TV] Leb
...an Iranian colony situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozeen flavors of Christians. It is the home of Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
’s Parliament met Thursday in the first session since the tragic explosion last week that changed the face of the capital and forced the government to resign.

Parliament is convening outside its regular location to observe social distancing amid a coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague)
