		<description>Violence and Assasinations are evil. This is the only important truth. Lebanon and the whole middle-East have a problem in solving differences democratically. Iran and Syria are obviously the sources of the string of assassinations, no one without their explicit permission would ever dream of doing anything like that without being caught. They are not democratic states and want to impose their ways and ideologies to Lebanon to further their own goals and interests. Is the Hezbollah really Lebanese? This is the true question. Not all Shi&#039;a are part or even approve of the Hezbollah. The group was created by Iran in the 80s to &quot;help&quot; Lebanon (the same way Syria, Israel and anyone really in these days of total chaos) while unconspicuously growing and increasingly trying to take over Lebanese Democracy and the government. Ask yourself, who is the hezbollah ultimately accountable to? and you&#039;ll find Iran and Syria are the answers. The rest of the country is the Lebanon all Lebanese without distinction of religion have loved and continue loving. This is the Lebanon of beaches, clubs, good food, business, tourism, fashion and interaction with the whole world. The lebanon of the hezbollah is a Lebanon plunged into the dark ages, dependent on Iran for everything and closed to any comtemporary idea of globalism or exchange with the rest of the world. We are seeing the evolution of Iran, it&#039;s going from bad to worst. If the country didn&#039;t have some petrol to fall back on and weapons to terrorize the free world, it would fall down and collapse economically and politically. At this time of uber crisis, the solution is simple, get rid of the hezbollah and any narrow-minded pseudo-political party and dissolve any political party based on religion, muslim and christian. All those who say that anti-Syrian Lebanese are obeying Washington are being over-simplistic. There is a huge difference between being created by the Iran of Khomeini in the 80s and being Lebanon, a country that has always had a priviledged relation with everybody, the west, the east and the rest of the M-East. There has been no victory anywhere in the past year in Lebanon, only blood, more blood and growing despair and frustration from all sides. The end goal of every REAL LEBANESE should be to find a way to have a prosperous and autonomous Lebanon. The end goal is to have no weapons but those of the army and a tacit understanding between all lebanese that Lebanon comes first and should depend on no other nation. Can the hezbollah truly say their ideals are Lebanese? Can they deny the fact that they were created by Iran and obey its government rather than the average Lebanese?</description>
