Evidence of the Truth
A wise journalist smuggled pictures out of Lebanon showing Hizbollah militants setting up in civilian areas.
Now, most of us already knew this was happening. What it does is give you a more graphic idea of why there are so many civilian casualties in Lebanon. If your neighbour has an anti-aircraft gun set up in his backyard, and you do nothing about it; well you can't really expect to be safe there.
Or if the guy who lives in the appartment above you has been using the roof of the building to launch rocket attacks at Israel; don't be too surprised if an Israeli bomb hits him, and destroys the building.
My point is, that that not all of the Lebabese "civilians" are completely innocent. They bear a certain amount of responsibility for: electing Hizbollah officials, for supporting their policies, and for allowing militants to use civilian areas to stage attacks. It's not rocket science (pun intended).

that's what you get when you teach people that it's good to be a martyr. fuck martyrdom, it's a pretentious, selfish way to die.
