Hezbollah Mourns Martyr Housam Ibrahim Claimed by Zionist Attack on Southern Lebanon
2023-10-10
[ENGLISH.ALMANAR.LB] The Islamic Resistance® issued on Monday a statement which mourns Martyr Housam Mohammad Ibrahim who was claimed by the Israeli aggression on Southern 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...
on the same day.

Al-Manar’s correspondent at the Lebanese-Paleostinian border reported festivities near homes in the town of al-Dhahira in southern Lebanon on Monday.

The Israeli enemy in the region launched a barrage of missiles toward this vicinity.

According to the National News Agency, there has been an expansion in the Israeli artillery shelling, with the outskirts of Aita al-Shaab town in the Bint Jbeil district being targeted. Additionally, there have been reports of frequent low-altitude flights of spy planes in the southern skies. Accordingly, Ibrahim embraced martyrdom.

#1  Note that Hezbollah has very sophisticated means of attack - against civilian targets, but no defenses.
Their defense is, traditionally, provided by World Opinion: a combination of third worders, enlightened western governments (who conduct a war to extinction against their native populace), and Russia/China stiring the pot for strategic advantages.
