File under: Hezbollah

#1 Hezbollah is unaccustomed to waging a long war of attrition like this, far from the Lebanese villages where it fought guerrilla wars against Israel. To be sure, its fighters are becoming a battle-hardened expeditionary force, but the nature of the war is reconfiguring Shiite society. “Boys are dropping out of school to join the fight,” says Slim. “They enjoy the benefits of manhood earlier than before, but it’s becoming a community without men, or men who are simply on leave from Syria and waiting to return. The result,” he says smiling, “is that the women will become more powerful.”

Tarbaby just sat and stared.

#4 Jihad Mughniyeh should have been hit again with a hellfire missile at his own funeral. And then again and again if someone tries to clean up the mess. Send the message that he and his ilk are toxic.
