personally i support them and if hezbollah wasnt there lebanon would be called ISRAEL now

u can say bye to the red and white and cedars and say hello to white and blue and star of david.

Answer 3

huge mess... but basically all the problems lebanon has is from the terroist group the hezbollah and the people who support them. The hezbollah started shooting rockets into isreal so isreal tried to take down this group.. which the lebanese government should have taken care of there selves but they are to scared I guess... anyways I watched that also what your talking about :) I like his show.

Answer 4

I know many pple wont like my reply here, but i'm always honest.

The problem is that hezbollah is a group....for me terrorist one...supported from Iran and Syria. They say that are trying to keep Israel out of Lebanon......but...thx to them....2 years ago Israel almost destroyed Lebanon.

If Syria and Iran have something with Israel..they have to make the things from their own countries, and not be using Lebanon as a weapon, while is being destroyed.

There are deeper issues , political ones  behind all that.

Syria, still doesnt accept that Lebanon is an independent republic.....as much as if they like it or not.

They still dream about the "Great Syria" as it was many years ago.

It wont happen again.......but they dont understand that.

Lebanon is a nice contry that tries by all the ways to survive although the big "neighbours" tries to "kill" it as a free country.

Israel, needs lands, and water.....and is looking at Lebanon waiting to anex it  or part of it. If it hasnt happen yet....is not bcoz of hezbollah..it's bcoz the international community  is watching Israel and not allowing them to do it.

Same happens with Iran.......they want to make from all Middle East a big islamic state......without realize that the best thing Lebanon has, is just the diversity of religions and the freedom to practice any of them.

No one can oblige anyone to practice a religion "by law".

Also.......you have the problem among muslims. Shias and sunnies cant arrive to a point where they can respect each others. They fight among them, and the rest of the population "pays the broken dishes"

It's a difficult thing to understand.

Anyways.....lebanese pple is the only that ought to decide what happens inside their territory.....neither terrorist groups as hezbollah..nor another countries as Iran, Israel or Syria.

let's see how many thumb downs i'll get for this reply.
