| [ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Leb is building wall near the country’s largest Paleostinian refugee camp to prevent holy warriors from infiltrating, a military source said Monday. The overcrowded and impoverished Ain al-Hilweh camp near the southern coastal city of Sidon has gained notoriety in recent years as a refuge for Moslem holy warriors and runaways. It also saw deadly fighting last year between the Jund al-Sham Islamist group and members of Paleostinian president the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas ... a graduate of the prestigious unaccredited Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow with a doctorate in Holocaust Denial... ’s Fatah movement. And in September the army said security forces had tossed in the calaboose Drop the heater, Studs, or you're hist'try! a Paleostinian refugee suspected of links to the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... group who was in the camp. "The construction of the wall began some time ago and the aim is to stop the infiltration of forces of Evil inside Ain al-Hilweh from nearby orchards," the military source told AFP. "It’s a security measure" that was taken after the arrest of "runaway terrorists" who had taken shelter in the camp, he said. Pictures were posted online showing cranes lifting huge concrete blocks on the western side of Ain al-Hilweh then setting them side by side, as well as watchtower. Social media users compared the wall to a controversial separation barrier which Israel has been building in the occupied West Bank since 2002. "Soon, the children of Ain al-Hilweh will draw pictures depicting Paleostine and freedom on the wall of shame," one person said online. A camp official, Fuad Othman, called the wall a "provocation".
"The wall, parts of which have been erected, is causing psychological pressure for the Paleostinian refugees," said Maqdah. "We wouldn’t have needed a separation barrier and watchtowers if the Lebanese authorities had, years ago, found a solution to the Paleostinian presence in Leb," he added. The military source said Leb "is not building a prison or a separation wall, but a wall for protection", adding residents would be able to go in and out from the camp, except from the western side. By long-standing convention, the army does not enter Paleostinian refugee camps in Leb but holds positions outside of it, leaving the factions to handle security inside. More than 61,000 Paleostinian refugees live in Ain al-Hilweh, including 6,000 who recently fled the war in Syria, according to the UN’s agency for Paleostinian refugees, UNRWA. | |

| #8 Not a wall - it is a 30' wide concrete reinforced crocodile hatchery. Croc Boudin, next big deal. It's only racist when Israel does it? I think the foundation of the counter-Trump agit-prop is that, only when ~certain deplorables~ wish one. Olde is new again. |

| #6 Ohh, the pitiful poor fake "palestinians".... Spend all their money on terror tunnels and explosives. To what shall we owe statehood? Shitting in the wells and draining them, ruining all the landscape, Gush Katif is overrun by wolves and buzzards. They literally use it as a launching pad. Anyone using "Palestine" as a reference to RADICAL MOSLEMS owning parts of Israel that belongs to Jews sets me off. The Islamic instability sets me off That false prophet sets me off. That fake name for that fake movement sets me off. The monies the west spent keeping that lethal disease alive sets me off The idiot pope sets me off. All democrats set me off - fascists all The UN sets me off PBS sets me off Lies set me off. There is nothing in this world I cannot see through and the fake arab front of "Palestine" is a shining example of what is wrong with the entire earth. NO. You Really can suck it. They had every opportunity. NO MORE MONIES FOR YOUR FAKE PALESTINE. |

| #4 And it's always someone elses fault. You know what? Fuck "palistine" forever. You made it up and you faked it. You did not even use the Koran. So do not collect $200, go directly to hell. I cannot have you be the highest price of land in your irrational hatred of Jews. Go fuck yourselves, really. |
