An Arab Woman Blues - Reflections in a sealed bottle...

This is a mail I received from a good friend of mine who lives in Beirut. UPDATED BELOW (will try and regularly update this post) "...we had one hell of a night as we live in a hot neighborhood. Things seems to be relatively calmer today but tomorrow, tomorrow is another story nobody knows about -except US, Israel and Iran, of course. Recent incidents are frightening. My relative in West Beirut cursed Nasrallah, the following day he was kidnapped and tortured, reminding me of the way of the Mahdi thugs, the way he was brought and thrown from the SUV's in the middle of the street...so much like the Mahdi practices. They threw him in the middle of the street as a bag of garbage. Thank God he is still alive but this will not go without lifetime consequences.I hope things will not deteriorate further but all scenarios -including the Iraqi one- are possible..." Another note from Lebanon from Siestke in Beiroet Blogspot. " Incident #1 I’m hanging over my balcony, watching...

Strings of Sadness...

Someone wrote to me and asked me some clarifications regarding my stand vis à vis the sectarian Iranian puppet and tool, the "Sayyed" of the Hezb. I went through my older posts and re-read one dated 28.January.08 called "A TRAVESTY". You may also want to check my posts on the Arab Woman Newsbytes -- "Zionism, Khomeinism and the smell of Death" and " Dirty Links" - both written in February 08, to get a full picture of what am talking about. In the post, " A travesty", the " Sayyed " in one of his speeches to the " sons and daughters of Kerbala " ( a link is provided - so am not making up the speech) assures his faithful followers about the protection of Iran, read between the lines... In that column I summed up my position vis à vis the " Sayyed " and his Hezb . What I said then holds true today and is unlikely to change in the future... For those who are still wondering, you may wish to re-read that p...

These two parts of the Al-Jazeerah video on Iraq provides a very good background information on the DYNAMICS of DUAL-OCCUPATION / US - IRAN. Three guests - an American, an Iranian and an Egyptian. I am aware that this video is dated March 08, month that Ahmadinejad visited U.S OCCUPIED Baghdad's GREEN ZONE and met with the Iraqi puppets. This video also sheds light on the current events in Iraq, and what and who triggered and wishes to maintain the blood spilling. You will notice that the "Arab representation" is totally absent. After watching thes two videos, you'll understand why. Do pay attention to the Iranian speaker and his clever twisting of questions in Iran's favor. A good study in propaganda making - Iran positing itself as a "pro-arab people". And do remember that we are talking about IRAQ here, and again as you will notice ARAB IRAQ is ABSENT too. You will see the same happening in LEBANON soon... Enjoy your dual occupations. Video 1 - click ...

The French say I have a "coup de blues"... A coup de blues is when the blues suddenly fall on your head, literally like a blow, wham...and you're down and out... In Beirut, it is not a coup de blues, it is a coup of yellow ribbons, yellow armbands, yellow flags, black gear and face masks... It is in fact, the black and yellow coup. It smells of guns, explosions and flesh... Lebanon lived through 16 bloody years of civil war and the yellow and black armed men want to revive the memory in tears and blood. For those whose imagination is not very fertile, the yellow and black refer to the Hezb. I will refrain from calling them Hezballah, because I don't believe they have anything to do with Allah or God. So I will just call them the yellow and black Hezb. Hezb means a party. And what a party it is. For those of you who are all excited and orgasmic about yet another "divine victory", and most of you are probably wearing red - I say to you, there is no divine vict...

In my last post, I said " I foresee a coup"- There you go, it happened. Hezbollah thugs have taken control of West Beirut. View artice here . Will update later with more thoughts on the same and will reply to the comments left on previous posts. This is all very depressing...

As I said in my uncensored blog, I am tired and don't have much stamina for political exposés ... So you will get it straight from me tonight, like every night... I am not pleased with what's happening in Lebanon. Not pleased at all. Hezbollah and Amal , two S hiite parties, are playing a deadly game. I said it before and will reiterate again, Hezbollah-the militia and Hezbollah has all the characteristics of a militia, is dying to spark a civil war in Lebanon. Not because Hezbollah stands for truth and justice. Ze General Aoun is after all, a right wing fascist, and he is associated with these thugs. So is Frangieh . Anyone who has been following the Lebanese scene knows what both Aoun and Frangieh stand for. I foresee some form of a "coup" happening in Lebanon. The whole thing orchestrated and directed by Iran. And Hezbollah is active as per the Iranian agenda. Its sole purpose and mission is to execute what Iran wants. Forget the rhetoric and the anti-Israel b...
