Personal Message on Marjayoun
Dr. Khalil Mouchantaf writes from the US Northeast:
Today I received very sad and shocking news. Three of the civilians who died out of the seven in the convoy escaping Southern Lebanon were from my mother's town of Marjeoun, a town that has been in the news recently.
The Israelis stormed violently into the town, destroying what is left of the fallen place. They were supposedly looking for Hezbollah operatives in my uncles' house, where my aunt and three young children live (he lives in St. Lucia earning a living). I have come to the realization that Israel looks at all of Lebanon and the Lebansese cvilians as Hezbollah operatives...

"There is a good reason that Hizbullah chief Hassan Nasrallah has accepted UN Security Council Resolution 1701, which sets the terms for a cease-fire between his jihad army and the State of Israel.
"The resolution represents a near-total victory for Hizbullah and its state sponsors Iran and Syria, and an unprecedented defeat for Israel and its ally the United States."
