๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง In an official statement by the Lebanese Forces party, mimicking word-by-word the Israeli army's pretext to attacking Qard al-Hassan, they called the financial institute illegal and ordered it to "legitimize itself" before opening any branch.

The institute is legal FYI, and already opened, but this campaign against it by these parities have been ongoing for years even though it only contributed positively to the Lebanese economy.

๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง This was an unexpected plot twist.

Remember the guy who was shot dead by mistake during the celebrations in Dahyeh on 27-Nov? The passenger was shooting in the air and shot his motorcycle driver?

Lebanese security forces investigated and it seems the one who was shot dead was a Palestinian and the shooter friend was Turkish! Both born in 2000.

๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡งl๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ US intel agencies assess that Lebanonโ€™s Hezbullah, even amid Israelโ€™s military campaign, has begun to recruit new fighters and is trying to find ways to rearm through domestic production and by smuggling materials through Syria.

The report adds that Hezbullah is operating with limited firepower and has lost more than half its weapons stockpiles and thousands of fighters during the conflict with Israel.

But the group has not been destroyed and still maintains thousands of short-range rockets in Lebanon and it will try to rebuild using weapons factories in neighboring countries with available transport routes, per sources.

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Katz, Netanyahu's yes-man, announced that he will take "disciplinary action" against IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari for his harsh criticism of the Feldstein Law.

This law intends to protect Netanyahu, whose staff and office member Feldstein leaked secret documents to protect the PM for failing on 7-Oct to take action.

"The criticism of the IDF Spokesman against the political echelon and against the legislative process in the Knesset is a grave phenomenon and a complete deviation from his authority and what is allowed and expected of a uniformed person in a democratic regime," Katz says in a statement.

The spokesman clearly said what the IDF Chief of Staff wanted him to say, showcasing the trouble in Israel.

Just yesterday, Netanyahu attacked the head of the Shin Bet.

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ Hebrew media: IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi reprimanded IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari over his remarks at a press conference this evening regarding the so-called Feldstein Law

The IDF says Hagari "exceeded the scope of his authority" with his criticism of the law.

"The IDF does not criticize the legislature, but presents its position to the political echelon in the accepted mechanisms," the military adds.

โ—๏ธThe head of the Lebanese Forces party Center in Karm Al Zeitoun, Roland Al Murr, was killed as a result of a dispute that took place in the Achrafieh area this evening, which developed into a shooting between a group of "Soldiers of God" and young men from the LF.

The two are heavily armed, unlike what they claim.

Three years ago, the LF ambushed unarmed protestors and supporters of Hezbullah, killing many civilians, including a woman in her home. The LF sustained no casualties (deaths)

I don't know what's happening, but I expected to wake up to this bad news.

Idk why? Idk how? Idk anything. Catastrophic and I can't find a reason why the Syrian army decided to withdraw. (Withdrawal orders were given a few days ago btw)

I guess, we wait to see if we have a new Syria by New Years Eve, or what. Can't say but

๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ Abu Mohamed Al-Golani first joined al-Qaeda to fight the US occupation forces and the Iraqi government in 2003.

Not long after, he joined ISIS at the end of that decade, before defecting back to Al-Qaeda and creating Jabhat al-Nusra

To only then backstab Al-Qaeda again, kill its leaders in Syria, and suppress its groups and create HTS.

In an old speech with Al-Jazeera whare his face was hidden he talks about the Syrian war and justifies Hezbullah's involvement:
"Hezbullah entered the Syrian war, and it is an inevitable war must war for them. The fall of Bashar al-Assad is the end of Hezbullah, and this strengthens its internal Lebanese opponents."

He also talks about how Jabhat al-Nusra is 30% foreigners and so on.

๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ Funny enough, Isis calls Al-Jolani the Jewlani or the Jew of Jihad, for what he did in defecting and lying and etc.

When ISIS's Al-Adnani came to Syria to check on the situation as a representative to Al-Baghdadi, he described Al-Jolani as someone who loved being talked about in the media and likes to take good photos. That his eyes would spark when someone brings up his name and is lustful for power.
