واشنطن تسلم الجيش "مدافع ومستوعبات للذخائر "

yes, god bless the biggest sociopaths in human history.

but why the retarded nervous laugh, flamethrower?

Cristina - one word: nuts

I can answer why the U.S are reluctant to send real weaponry, because they are afraid the LAF will use them to combat Israel, and they recognize the LAF cooperation with the Resistance.

Lift the arms embargo from Iran, let them arm & train the LAF as the Resistance, and we will see a strong LAF able to combat Israel, and takfiris anytime anywhere. Real weapons would arrive from Iran.

How come only Jordan, Saudi arabia and such countries gets all the good packages, while the LAF recieves junk?

Unguided artillery pieces, very nice texas. ISIS and Nusra will laugh when they find out what junk the U.S gave the LAF.

texasusa, wants the LAF to recieve leftovers from the U.S army landfills forever. Effectively downgrading the LAF defence capabilities, in favor of Israel.

Iran is not interested in providing aircrafts because thess are harder to hide from the State of Lebanon. That's why Hizbullah has plenty of missiles and is striving to get chemical weapons: these are means you can hide from the eyes of the State of Lebanon, but you can't hide aircrafts.

And moreover Iran don't want the Lebanese army to be able to rival its proxy militia, so as long as there is Hizbullah, the Lebanese army will have less better weapons that the Iranian agents.

texas, Lebanese army soldiers are getting wasted all the time! All the Lebanese people should be hysterical and push for further upgrading, not just accept scrap metal like it was gold, as you do.

I have friends, and family members in the army I want them to fight the takfiris with real weapons instead of this junk.

The 'honorable' resistance should give its weapons to the LAF and make short of this argument.

Mystic, as if Iran is waiting the lifting of the embargo, which embargo? Has Iran been prevented from supplying Hezbollah with weapons? How come?

Mystic, your reaction and that of the HA led M8 coalition was expected. You guys make it sound as if this world was one made for nerds, so what do you want the army to do, to show those weapons that should not be shown? OK, it's showing big guns, but the army reserves the right to show or NOT to show whatever it judges sensitive. Have we ever seen the weapons Hezbollah receives and why does HA not show us what it receives? The army is a lot smarter than everyone seems to know, their advanced weaponry remain concealed in containers and go straight to the army's designated storage facilities. Now if you please ya khaye Mystic, you and the side you stand with, stop being so malicious, your malaise is getting difficult for you to hide, stronger army equates to weaker militias, simple.

so what the incredible credible flamethrower is saying Lebanon is in clear violation of the 1701 which prohibited the arming and supply of weapons to HA/militia. Then, he cries wolf Israel is violating 1701.

@eagledawn
great point you make to silence this horrid mouthpiece who cannot but insult everybody on this forum.

All of you arguing in this chain are wrong. I'm not even gonna comment on Mystic because he's so delusional and obsessed with the word resistance. We need an ARMY, not a terrorist "resistance." Texas and ex-fpm, the LAF does not want Hezbollah's rockets, and even if they did Hezbollah will never hand them over. These rockets are not used by conventional armies today. You guys can't be that naive to think Hezbollah will hand over their weapons, join the LAF and sing kumbaya. How is that even plausible? Hezbollah fighters are radical militants, they are not soldiers.

"smuggling to a militia is possible, smuggling to a government is not, my dear phoenix."
says the idiot...

but what is even better is that a militia obeys the STATE and give its weapons to it! LOL
but of course M8ers will never accept to streghten the state and the army... bad for their militia!

nade, humvees are you kidding me? Humvees and those rusty M113's any anti tank rockets will burst through them like nothing, even a RPG could.

Why not M1 Abrams tanks? Egypt have those, Jordan have those, Saudis got them, but not Lebanon ofcourse, would be too bad for the U.S and Israel.

Is that a martyred khomeini jihadi terrorist family in your avatar?

Iran does not have F-16 jets texas, sorry to burst your bubble.

NADE, the Hezbollah led M8 coalition have no interest in seeing the Lebanese army become stronger, in their minds it means one thing, a stronger LAF translates into weaker militias, one of them being that militia they still wish to refer as a resistance. Then for the like of the FPM supporters, or what remains of them, a weaker Hezbollah means a weaker backing for their party or the party of brainwashed slaves. It matters not to see a stronger army, they just want their selfish interests to remain above everything, that's all. Iran for them is used as an argument added value point and nothing more. Times are changing and they don't like it one bit.

We are in a position to pick, if M14 and USA didn't block real arms shipments, then the LAF would be much more powerful, but ofcourse we have texas, and the M14 happy to recieve leftovers from U.S army landfills.

U.S.A divide and conquer tactics, works perfectly on Lebanon, in order to guard Israel.

Flamethrower i wasn't focusing much about the amount of population as much as to state how divided we are as a people i have friends pretty much from every sect and we agree on the one thing that we are lebanese first and foremost but our political leaders like to play the sectarian game when it suits them.

i cant believe you care about the voting!!!

I take it you are american or support american ideals right if so go to hell .

Me too, shoukran America.

Thanks US

The incredible credible flamethrower once said :

"...flamethrower--
I respect many differing opinions and you know it. "

and this "respect" is clearly demonstrated in each and every one of his legendary posts.

FT, you can make your point without resorting to name calling, quite frankly there's no need for this.

Texas, even in the 90s, the Lebanese government had no authority over Hezbollah because Syria wanted it that way. Syria made Hezbollah became an ally so they would have a powerful proxy should they be be forced to end their occupation one day (as happened in 2005). "The resistance" was always a political cover from its inception. In 1982 it claimed to be resisting only Israel, yet it aimed to create an Islamic state in Lebanon. When Syria left in 2005, Hezbollah replaced them and has taken over the government through intimidation and weapons (7 Ayyar). Now in 2015, Hezbollah claims to be resisting takfiri, while they fight in places as far is Halab and even Iraq, but aren't even defending the Lebanese borders.

Their reasons will always be mere pretexts, Texas.
