...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah 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.

It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about

. Iranian proxies have repeatedly attacks American assets and bases in the region, particularly in Iraq and Syria, over Washington’s support for Israel.
Washington has responded to these attacks on numerous occasions, striking Iran-backed groups in both countries in retaliation for dozens of rocket and drone attacks on American bases.
