I guess i can clear up some common misconceptions about this.

Anyways back in the late 1970s a civil war broke out in Lebanon between the christians and muslims. Israel was pretty much to blame for the civil war though as they gave the sparks to get it going.

Israel supposedly invaded to get rid of the PLO who fled to Lebanon.

Anyways during these years Lebanon didn't really have an army so Israel invaded with ease all the way up to beirut. During this time the Israeli commited lots of war crimes: Killing families, raping women, destroying homes etc...

Fierce fighting would break out between civilians and Israeli soldiers occasionally.

Anyways as a result of this occupation Hezbollah was formed in i think 1982. Anyways Hezbollah eventually pushed Israel out of Lebanon in 2000.

Now, Hezbollah is a result of Israeli occupation and war crimes. Well anyways before Israel left Lebanon they took many thousand civilian prisoners with them and have them locked up in Israel and doing god knows what with them.

Anyways after the war Hezbollah went political. They built hospitals schools etc... but basically they helped rebuild Lebanon but i have to say nobody built as much as hariri did.

Anyways after Israel left Lebanon they still occupied the sheba farm area. There was really no ceasefire tbh, Israeli drones and jetfighters would violate our airspace daily and Hezbollah was constantly trying to negotiate the release of the prisoners for 6 years. I do believe there was a little prisoner swap in 2004 but i can't really remember.

Other then Israeli soldiers crossing the border and getting into scuffles with hezbollah everything was good.

Anyways i like to press strongly at the fact that hezbollah is a result of israeli war crimes. Almost ALL od\f it's fighters had their families killed by israeli forces, mohers and sisters raped etc...

Anyways Hezbollah is pretty much less than a 1000 fighters with only a few thousands reserves. It is a maricle they are keeping 10000 israeli soldiers from invading.

The civilian shield thing imo is a load of bull since i talked to family in Lebanon. They even bombed my uncle's gas station lol...

Anyways the civilians do not flee because the Lebanese people put dignity first. Our people are not cowards and do not fear the israeli army, tbh at this point the civilians probably are waiting for a major ground invasion to move up so they can get in the fighting. Believe it or not almost every single civilian house keeps weapons such as rpgs, ak47s etc... incase of a israeli invasion. Most of these weapons are soviet erra though but the civilians have access to it.

Anyways if anybody else wants to ask anything else don't hesitate to ask. Flaming will be ignored of course as it isn't productive.

edit: If anybody wonders where the civilians would get these kind of weapons it is all smuggled from Syria. From what i was told by uncles and stuff they used to smuggle this stuff through an underground tunnel that went from Syria to Lebanon. Civilians would also pick up weapons off the streets as it was very common to see weapons lying around in those days. My grandpa has many stories from the war tbh, he used to smuggle arms from Syria to Lebanon and sell it to civilians in the black market.
