letter to walid jumblatt : the great arab prison

it is a a large prison this arab world. a prison of broken dreams and un realized potential. a prison of tears, the tears of crying on the remains and the loss of granada. you reached for the key from your fathers executioner and our warden's chain of blood. you held the key and put it in the prison door's lock. the masses urged you on and cheered. the fear and loathing was gone. sunlight broke through the prison doors. the doors swung open and you faltered afraid of life outside the great prison; that is this arab world.

again we have been defeated

the doha agreement is a capitulation to the brute force of syrian/iranian hegemony in lebanon.

The lebanese majority did not achieve anything, no matter how they spin it.
They gave concessions and diluted their power to give iran and syria effective veto power over the lebanese government and people, which can block anything the majority wants to do, even the tribunal....

The criminal syria/iran weapons were not addressed which will only embolden the aggressors on the lebanese people.

The squatters in downtown left, but this was again a victory for the iran/syria camp, because it was a mini occupation , an aggressive action, that again paid off , because it was reversed for political gains by syria and iran.

So what did the lebanese gain? an iffy president, who watched and turned his head away when lebanese butchered by iranian /syrian gangsters were begging for him to save their lives.

Let us remember who probably approved the current army chief's position several years ago.

just a reminder to everyone who got excited when lahoud was made president.

defeat no matter what you call it sucks, because u feel it inside, and you know you have lost...

Monopoly, how could you?

growing up playing monopoly in the malja'a (bomb shelter)by candle light , is a quintessential lebanese expeience, people of a certain age group will remember well.

So naturally it was exciting when i read that monopoly is making a new edition with famous city names on the squares.
 
You can choose from 68 cities,  the 22 with most votes go on the board. choose here

I thought beirut must be on the list, surely, I scrolled through , no beirut, checked again, looked closely between Lithuania and Latvia, Nothing!

i feel cheated , and as if to rub salt in my wounded city's ego, there at the bottom of the list was her nemesis, new and shiney Dubai.

maybe someone has wasta with hasbro and can put beirut on the list

as for me i wont be palying monoply anytime soon, it aggravates my ptsd.

"Report Details Shooting by Drunken Blackwater Worker'


By ERIC SCHMITT
Published: October 2, 2007

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1 — A Blackwater USA employee under investigation in the killing last December of an Iraqi bodyguard in an off-duty confrontation was so drunk after fleeing the shooting that another group of guards took away the loaded pistol he was fumbling with, a report to a House committee said Monday.
The Reach of War
Go to Complete Coverage »

The guards, employees of Triple Canopy, another private military contractor, returned the weapon to the Blackwater employee, who smelled of alcohol, and escorted him away from their guard post in the fortified Green Zone, the report said. Shortly afterward, the police detained the man, a 26-year-old firearms technician whom the report did not name, at the Blackwater camp inside the Green Zone, but determined he was too intoxicated to be interviewed.

Within 36 hours, the report said, Blackwater fired the man for possessing a firearm while drunk and arranged with the State Department to fly him back to the United States, angering Iraqi officials who said the Christmas Eve shooting was murder.

The acting ambassador at the United States Embassy in Baghdad suggested that Blackwater apologize for the shooting and pay the dead Iraqi man’s family $250,000, lest the Iraqi government bar Blackwater from working there, the report said. Blackwater eventually paid the family $15,000, according to the report, after an embassy diplomatic security official complained that the “crazy sums” proposed by the ambassador could encourage Iraqis to try to “get killed by our guys to financially guarantee their family’s future.”

The report did not identify the acting ambassador, but a State Department spokesman, Karl Duckworth, said it was Margaret Scobey.

The shooting is under investigation by the Justice Department, but it remains unclear what laws might be applied in the case, because it occurred overseas.

According to the report, which was based largely on internal Blackwater e-mail messages and State Department documents and compiled by the Democratic staff of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, the episode began between 10:30 and 11:30 p.m. on Dec. 24 when the off-duty Blackwater employee, who witnesses said had been drinking heavily, passed through a gate near Prime Minister Nuri Kamal al-Maliki’s compound in the Green Zone.

When confronted by bodyguards to Vice President Adil Abdul Mahdi of Iraq, the Blackwater employee fired his Glock 9-millimeter pistol, hitting one of the guards, Raheem Khalif, three times. Mr. Khalif, 32, later died at an American military hospital.

The Blackwater employee fled to the Triple Canopy guard post, where he told the guards that he had been in a gunfight with Iraqis who were chasing him and shooting at him. But the guards had not heard any shots.

The next day, the Blackwater employee told Army investigators that he had fired in self-defense after the Iraqi bodyguard shot at him. On Dec. 26, Blackwater flew the man out of Iraq to Jordan, and then to the United States.

Senior American Embassy officials immediately determined that Blackwater should send the dead Iraqi man’s family a letter of condolence and a cash payment.

In an e-mail message, Ms. Scobey asked if the embassy’s regional security officer would be following up “to do all possible to assure that a sizable compensation is forthcoming.”

“If we are to avoid this whole thing becoming even worse, I think a prompt pledge and apology — even if they want to claim it was accidental — would be the best way to assure the Iraqis don’t take steps, such as telling Blackwater that they are no longer able to work in Iraq,” Ms. Scobey continued.

The embassy officials disagreed over the size of the payment until the Diplomatic Security Service official prevailed.

“As you can imagine, this has serious implications,” the embassy security official said in an internal e-mail message. “This was an unfortunate event but we feel that it doesn’t reflect on the overall Blackwater performance. They do an exceptional job under very challenging circumstances. We would like to help them resolve this so we can continue with our protective mission.”

my dying city

this city has withstood the ravages of time and the horrors of war
we shared the worst of days and enjoyed life in the city of love and hope.
now, i feel i have returned to a city on its deathbed...

choking to death by the yellow plague that is slowly strangling her...
the yellow plague festers in tent cities that surround its heart...
where thuggish man-boys sit around with a sadistic glaze in their eyes,
beneath Orwellian banners they sit: defeat is victory, dying is living,misery is pride, and master knows best.

The cult of the glorification of death and blood knows it has won. It slowly twists the blade in her wounded side. She stays silent in her pride. The great leader in his den awaits his messianic orders from his warrior-priest masters from beyond the deserts...

some choose to party on, even harder than before, but they all know in their secret heart, that the city of life and everlasting hope is taking its last agonal breaths.

It will be soon transformed into a new city, the city of resistance and victory, with the grand wizard ever in the shadows , he is magnanimous in victory, he will take good care of you.

For he is the divine victor, and to the victor go the spoils...

Thermopylae

it seems that history does repeat itself sometimes....
almost 2000 years ago the persian empire was trying to complete its domination of the Mediterranean....as it is trying to do today.
there was one free state left in their path, ancient greece
a massive horde of hundreds of thousands descended on greece
a few hundred spartans stopped their advance.
those spartans eventually all died...but they delayed the persians enough for the rest of greece to prepare and eventually defeat the persians...
the place where Xerxes was stopped by the free democratic greeks was called Thermopylae...
so i guess quality does trump quantity...
السرايا is the new thermopylae......

the whore of tehran and the demented jester


a young man was assassinated today in lebanon
a few years older than me
maybe not an exceptional man, but he belonged to an exceptional current of change in lebanon
who killed him , we might never know
who pulled the trigger on the silenced makarov we will probably never know
but i know one thing
i know who is morally responsible...
it is the whore of tehran who hides in the sewers of dahyie, hiding beneath his turban and fantasizing about the mullahs of iran sodomizing him with their nuclear tipped shihab III...
and the demented sad little man, the jester of rabieh , who has become a sidekick to the sewer rat, in the hope that if he is an obedient little gimp one day he can sit on the little red velour chair in baabda and call himself the fool of "Lebanistan"...

poor ego;
orphan child of the war between a harsh super-ego and an irresistible id
what's an ego to do....
it comes up with defense mechanisms...
from the semi conscious ones to the sub conscious ones
from simple ones to elaborate ones
from well concealed ones to obvious one
projection, denial, repression, supression, reaction formation, humor, altruisim, sublimation, rationalization, intellectualization, dissocaition, undoing, splitting, and last but not least :
projective identification.......
the most primitive yet most elaborate...What is projected is most often an intolerable, painful, or dangerous idea or belief about the self that the person cannot tolerate....it may be directed toward the ideal object to avoid separation........
for now i will stick with my own defense, " the little prince" defense and live on b612....
i am a contemplating moving there soon.....

the lion's den

Just read this disturbing article from TIME.
the hypocrisy it revealed is sickening. The great syrian baath regime, the daily lecturers to the lebanese among others; on arabism, nationalism, pride, and "resistance", is no more than the torture bitch of the CIA.
The regime accuses most lebanese of being anti arab, pro israel, anti "resistance" traitors, and wanabee phoenicians, but they gladly oblige and torture their own citizens for the CIA.
To be fair other countries do it or facilitate it, but they have the common sense to stay quiet about it or just stay quiet in general. Is the syrian militaristic-fascist regime(SMFR) experiencing a severe case of reaction formation?
It will be fun how the local lebanese gimps of SMFR will deal with this story, other than deny it as an imperialist plot hatched by the great satan to embarrass them.
Especially now, since the protector and number one super best friend of hassan and the "resistance" seems to be sleeping with enemy.
So maybe hassan and his friends; the last bastions of resistance , honor , and pride in the levant should be a little more careful, because if the nice men in black ski masks ask very , very nicely, he might be making a surprise trip to palestine.
Not the palestine he wants to liberate but the little piece of hell on earth, Palestine branch prison in Damascus.
The name of this little den of horrors in itself is another extreme case of reaction formation.

moving on to another amusing subject (briefly): If generalismo aoun was such good friends with hassan, why didn't he ask him to use his divine powers and intervene with god to make sure the weather stays good for the orange parade. Too bad it was cancelled :)

psychosis induced origami, left as gift for me, high point of the day


then i go to the lizard yalli bighmouz, haram el lizard not only is he in this glass prison all day, he has to hang out with these guys....


after a "few" i see this.....is the blur from my eyes or from the camera...
outside there was a blue moon too,then I went home....
