Who made Lebanon Catholic?Why, Georgie, if we are going to ask for atonement for crimes, how about the crimes the Muslims had committed when they left the Saudi Peninsula and invaded lands which were inhabited by some of the original Christians, killing so many of them and forcing so many to convert. Meanwhile, in modern times, who is going to atone for the crimes in which the King of Jordan's father with help from the Pakistani Army murdered thousands of Palestinians in what is known as Black September. And let us not forget that the King of Syria's father also killed thousands of Palestinians, and the Syrian Muslims are having a good time at present killing each other which is sad to see. I wonder if you could tell us why Lebanon which was a Catholic country is no more."The Phalangist militia based in Damour and Dayr al Nama had been blocking the coastal road.[3] The Damour massacre was a response to the Karantina massacre of January 18, 1976, in which Phalangists killed from 300 up to 1,500 people."Nobody is excusing the savagery of both sides, but Georgie wanted to post something that would bash Israel. However, it would have been nice if he had been even handed and posted the events that led up to what happened in the camps.
Arafat’s Massacre of Damour
Maybe we should look for a common denominator for these massacres?
Here's my choice: In 1948 Mandate Palestine one-third of the population imposed a Jewish State by force of arms on the majority of Palestinians. What atonement are you proposing for that crime?
Damour massacre - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I suspect most of Lebanon-related recent crises ranging from Black September to today's mass murder in Syria stems directly from one particular event on 15 May 1948.
What's your pick?
