Syria-Lebanon-Iran
Berri urges int'l community to 'stop Israeli killing machine'
2024-02-16
[An Nahar] Parliament Speaker Nabih Knobby Berri
...Speaker of the Lebanese parliament, head of the Amal Shiite party aligned with Hezbollah, a not very subtle sock puppet of the Medes and Persians...
on Thursday described Israel’s deadly dronezap on a building in Nabatiyeh as "a new massacre" that Israel has added to "its record that is full of murder, terrorism and genocidal wars."

Lamenting a "premeditated massacre," Berri called on the international envoys who are visiting Leb
...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. 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 dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original 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...

organizations to address "the bloodshed in Nabatiyeh, Houla, Sawwaneh and Adshit."

"Don’t condemn and deplore but rather act instantly to stop the Israeli killing machine and rein in the leaders of the occupation entity who are taking the region to a destructive war," the Speaker added.

Seven civilians and three Hezbollah fighters including a commander were killed in the overnight strike in Nabatiyeh. The raid resulted in the highest civilian corpse count in a single strike in Lebanon since cross-border hostilities began in October, raising fears of a broader conflict between Israel and Hezbollah. A woman and two children were killed in a strike the same day on the southern town of Sawwaneh.

The cross-border violence has killed at least 257 people on the Lebanese side, most of them Hezbollah fighters but also including 38 civilians.

#1  Typical Arab strategy. Start a war, then start screaming about "civilian casualties". And then all your friends: Western degenerates and the proud Wakandans of Africa; start pressuring Israel for "humanitarian" cease fire.
