Lebanon

I have blogged before about the unfortunate country that is The Lebanon and the unwillingness of the rest of the world to look after its interests. In the past few days the Iranians, via their proxy army of Hezbollah (The Army of Allah), have started yet another attempt to take over The Lebanon. Of course since Israel is not involved, the coverage in the UK has been muted. Our media like to keep story lines simple for the "proles" who they must entertain and inform; the Middle East is therefore portrayed as a place whose peacefulness was disturbed by the unwelcome introduction of European Jews into Palestine when Israel was foisted on the area by the British and Americans. Compare the coverage given to this attempted takeover of a sovereign country by Iranian backed terrorists to that of the Israeli incursions to take on the same terrorists a few years ago. This sort of media bias makes me feel so angry and certainly more angry that I want to feel today.
