Mleeta: Celebrating Resistance

When I had first heard that Hizballah constructed Mleeta, an interactive museum that showcases 24 years of resistance against Israel and her Lebanese collaborators, I did not know what to expect. Although countless articles were written about the facility shortly after it opened in May 2010, I knew that I could only satisfy my curiosity by visiting the site myself. Last Thursday, I made a last-minute decision to visit the museum. I wasn’t disappointed.

The Time for Solidarity is Always Now

As George Galloway said in his unforgettable interview on Sky News, Nasrallah’s reputation has grown exponentially among all Arabs, Muslim and Christian.

This admiration began with the Israeli humiliating defeat and withdrawal from the South (of Lebanon) in May of 2000.

IDF to the Vatican: I know what you did last summer!

It’s no doubt that by now, we’ve heard all about the small booklet entitled “On Either Side of the Border.”

Kuntar was the Lebanese militant and former member of the Palestine Liberation Front who was exchanged for the two Israeli reservists, Eldad Regev and Ehud Goldwasser, captured by Hezbollah in the Zar’it-Shtula incident that sparked the 2006 Lebanon War (or so they say). He was traded on May [...]

White Phosphorous: Israel Uses Chemical Weapons

White phosphorous. The marines called their concoction ‘shake and bake’ as they used the chemical mixed with explosives against Iraqis in Falluja. [...]

Media Bias on Gaza Crisis Favors Israel

The Islamic University in Gaza is destroyed. Few media question this. The Israeli PR offensive leading up to its calculated assault on the Gaza Strip is paying dividends. The Israeli publicity machine has effectively framed this murderous spree against Palestinians and Hamas in Gaza as a reasoned, defensive measure. Even though it has killed 350 [...]

Israel Threatens To “Turn Back The Clock in Lebanon by 20 years”

Insinuating that electricity cut-offs and utter destruction of infrastructure could be in Lebanon’s future, Israeli General Lieutenant Dan Halutz’s before-shock of a statement was the precusor to the military earthquake unleashed on a Beirut airport last night and just bombed a main Lebanese highway. I want to take a departure from an attempt at a [...]
