'They slaughtered, raped and buried us alive': Syrians praise blows to Hezbollah.

“Syrians praise blows to Hezbollah.”

“Syrians celebrate attacks against Hezbollah.”

[tsowellfan]

Although “blows” is still an odd word choice since it has multiple meanings.

Depends on what types of websites you visit I suppose

Cannot claim it’s mine it goes back to around 9/11 so at least 20 or more years ago. It’s an FR golden oldie but its worth repeating every now and them :)

I think we are talking past each other. I don't doubt that most people of Lebanon hate Hezbollah. I don't doubt that they are brutal thugs.

What I, and what I think several others questioned was why Syrians are praising "blows". Is that wind gusts or is it Kamala on her knee pads? And why Syrians and not Lebanon people? I did not connect that to mean bomb strikes or pager explosions or even the reactions of the Lebanon people. It took me a while to decipher what the imprecise language meant.

You’re right. We understand what was meant. The article gives the context.

[metmom]

It is.

I wasn’t on FR back in 2001 so don’t recall ever seeing it before.

Many thanks.

I am reasonably intelligent and I didn’t understand this atrocious writing at first either.
