Just as the “terrorist” label today is stretched far beyond its stated meaning, sometimes even over children, Cicero used “Itureans” in 43 BCE as a rhetorical weapon.
Not ethnography. Invective.
The Iturean became shorthand for foreign violence, barbarism, and the collapse of Roman civic order.
Same imperial reflex. Different vocabulary.

“During a July 23 visit, the reporters observed an Islamic Health Organization ambulance entering the village under LAF escort, while ambulances belonging to the Lebanese Red Cross and the Risala Scouts of Amal, a Hezbollah-allied Lebanese Shiite political party, were denied entry.”
This is their fucking evidence. Healthcare.
It looks like justification for extending the war and the occupation.
Report: Military Coordination Group for Lebanon (MCG4L), headed by US Marine Corps Lieutenant General Joseph Clearfield, had assessed the pilot program as unsuccessful in Zawtar al Gharbiyeh, Froun, and Srifa. Hezbollah, the report said, was exploiting the return of displaced residents to restore its presence longwarjournal.org/archives/…

Apartheid Israel confesses its goal is ensure 2 million Palestinians have no access to shelter during the winter storms. words cannot accurately describe how evil & cruel these people are.
Just a few weeks ago, the IDF, anticipating the impact of heavy rain on Gaza, demanded that a Hasbara plan be prepared in advance. The Foreign Ministry argued that no international campaign was underway yet and refused, so as not to draw unnecessary attention to the situation in Gaza. No one suggested doing anything to prevent what awaited the Palestinians in Gaza.

⚠️ Just now! Dangerous leaked information from official sources in Lebanon;
Talks are going on between some Lebanese and French officials including Zionist lobbyists in Paris and Washington
To get France to put The Trilateral Framework Agreement between the United States, Israel, and Lebanon was signed in Washington, D.C., on June 26, 2026 to a vote under the United Nations Security Council
This will cancel previous UN resolutions such as 1701 and 1559
In simple English what is taking place behind closed doors is to get the United Nations to do Israel's job in Lebanon. The Framework Agreement gives Israel everything it wants and also this agreement doesn't take Lebanese sovereignty under any consideration whatsoever.
This is pretty serious especially if France goes for voting this under chapter 7 of the UN Security Council. This means that the UN can assign military forces to implement it.
Will keep u updated.

🫒 Lebanon's olive oil exports fell by more than half in the first seven months of 2026.
But the real cost goes beyond lost revenue. What happens when generations of farming are uprooted?

When a Yemeni proves through DNA that she is Yemeni, not Levantine, and still has the entitled attitude that the Levant belongs to her.
هذه الفتاه اليمنيه اليهوديه الجميله من اليهود المزراحين قامت بعمل فحص DNA لتعرف اصولها 83% من يهود اليمن 14% مصري اي انها شرق اوسطيه 100%
اسرائيل اغلب سكانها من اليهود الشرق اوسطين اي ابناء هذه البيئه الاقليه هم اليهود الاشكيناز الاوروبين حتى اليهود الاوروبين جذورهم شرق اوسطيه
نحن ابناء هذه المنطقه شئتم ام ابيتم لامكان لنا غير اسرائيل عبارات مثل اذهبو الى اوروبا وطنكم اوروبا غير صحيحه وغير دقيقه نحن طردنا من الدول العربيه وتم اضطهادنا لمئات السنين في الدول العربيه والاسلاميه نحن لن نقبل ان نكون ذمين
" عبيد للمسلمين" اسرائيل ارض اجدادنا وسندافع عن هذا الوطن للابد

On Oct. 13, 2023, a policy paper leaked from the Israeli Ministry of Intelligence. It was a plan to expel all 2.2M Palestinians from Gaza.
The plan correctly predicted that if, the majority of the population remained in Gaza, and Israeli occupation forces took it over, "Israel will be perceived as a colonial power."
They feign "most moral army in the world" but behind closed doors always say the quiet part out loud.

Israel is building a six-meter-high razor-wire barrier, effectively caging 8,000 Palestinians in Sinjil the West Bank near Ramallah preventing them from farming.
Exactly! Lebanon’s governing system is designed for extraction from the most needy.
A study published by The Policy Initiative in October 2026 estimates that low- and middle-income households contribute approximately two-thirds of Lebanon's tax revenue, while the wealthiest 1% contribute about 7%, despite holding roughly one-third of wealth.

If you read Satloff’s statement, you wouldn’t know that American voters have strongly repudiated U.S. foreign policy, its wars, and its unflinching support for the disgusting behavior in Gaza, the West Bank, and Lebanon. But here we are, with Israel-firsters still talking as though nothing happened.
As an official statement of the #LebaneseArmedForces, this is a stunning declaration.
Reading this, one would never know that #Lebanon and #Israel are bound by a signed “framework agreement” that conditions progressive Israeli withdrawal from Lebanese territory on Lebanon’s progressive disarmament and dismantlement of non-state armed actors – i.e., #Hezbollah. That task does not even appear on the list of #LAF responsibilities or priorities.
And one wonders why the implementation of the “framework agreement” appears stuck in neutral.

Satloff’s selective reading is as dishonest as it is contemptible.
Paragraph 12 of the November 2024 agreement calls for Israeli withdrawal and Lebanese Army deployment in parallel, not indefinite Israeli occupation until Lebanon satisfies every Israeli demand.
Lebanon’s defense policy is determined by its government, not its Army Commander. And the Army Chief explicitly reaffirmed his commitment to implementing the decisions of the political authorities and extending state authority throughout Lebanon.
Satloff conveniently ignores all of that.
What I find particularly repugnant is the arrogance of these Israel-first propagandists, who lecture Lebanon about its obligations while treating Israel’s violations as an afterthought.
They demand accountability from the Lebanese Army while apparently reserving impunity for the Israeli military.
The contempt for Lebanese sovereignty is unmistakable.
