IDF shoots down drone near Lebanese border
[Jpost] The IDF on Friday spotted a drone crossing into Israeli airspace from 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...and shot it down, the IDF Spokesperson reported. The drone was under observation during the entire incident. "The IDF will continue to prevent any violation of Israel's illusory sovereignty," the IDF stated. Posted by: trailing wife 2021-01-24 |
