France Donates Four Deadly Battle-Ships to Hezbollah – Report

Four French frigates entered Lebanese docks on Tuesday, March 24th.

According to a report by Al-Joumhouria, the ‘sophisticated’ French frigates are being ‘gifted’ to the Lebanese Military and will be joining the navy.

The Lebanese government, and hence its military are fully controlled by Hezbollah and the terror organization’s allies.

French ambassador to Beirut, Bruno Fouche, ‘personally supervised the operation’. Fouche even boarded one of the battleships that were delivered to Lebanon from the Toulon Naval Base in southern France.

Remember, Hezbollah is the anti-Israel, anti-Saudi Arabia group that even France designates as a terrorist organization

A frigate is not a battleship.

Reguardless battleship or frigate they are targets. Israel has things in the air and underwater that eat things.

I’ll be hoping Hezbollah over mans these ships for when they are sent to the bottom of the Med.

It sure isn’t. I suppose the author meant to say “warship” instead of “battleship”. It’s just inexcusably sloppy reporting.

Those boats aren’t assault weapons?

Target rich environment for the Israeli Air Force and for their submarines - yes, they do have some, we just don’t hear much from them...

Iranian backed Shia jihadists, just the kind of people we want having sophisticated naval assets.

Exactly. My very first thought was, Sink Them.

That said, a Fast Frigate IS NOT a Battle Ship. But, the media doesn’t design headlines for accuracy. They are designed to generate hits and, portray a point of view that is in line with their political bias which is 99.99% Liberal.

I suspect something was lost in translation.

I think it all depends on how many shells each cannon clip holds
