Lebanon - Hariri's Resignation - The Opening Shot Of The Saudi War On Hizbullah
Moon of Alabama ^ | 11/6/2027 | staff (b)

Posted on 11/06/2017 12:17:48 PM PST by rx

Four days ago we asked: Is The "Moderate Al-Qaeda" Set To Target Hizbullah?. The implied answer in that piece was "Yes, the war is coming to Lebanon."

Today the Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Al-Hariri resigned with a statement issues from Saudi Arabia on the Saudi Arabian TV station Al Arabia (video). This is the opening shot of the war.

The Saudi-Israeli-U.S. axis will lose this war while Iran and Russia will win from it.

Hardly serious. Shirly.

In other words, Syrian war, the sequel.

It’s bad versus worse. Although I’m not too clear at the moment which side is worse.

But a war of Muzzies against Muzzies is generally a good thing. That’s where Boosh made his big mistake.

There are so many players in Syria - Europe, Turkey (who appear to have changed sides, away from the rebels, since the coup), Israel, Jordan, etc.

Do you think Israel would actually cross the northern border and get into direct military involvement? There are rumours of that, but I can’t quite believe it.

Idle hands, the devil’s workshop and all. Other ways to spend the Congressional allowance.

Don’t forget that with more globalist hands in the fray—working together, no less—that other interests than just #MAGA will want to be satisfied.

One of life’s greatest tragedies is for war to come to your homeland.

So the side that is essentially right there is going to lose to the logistically distant? Particularly with the former having stable firm leadership and seasoned combat units in theater?

Yea, OK...
