This is unhelpful!

The Iranian-backed terror organization Hezbollah (click here) recently unveiled sophisticated missiles and drones that it has used to conduct terror operations against Israel. The military hardware is now on display at the terror group's Museum for Jihadi Tourism located in Southern Lebanon, near the border with Israel.

The new exhibits highlight the sophisticated weaponry Hezbollah has been using to conduct cross-border terror strikes in Israel. The weapons are likely funded and provided by the Islamic Republic, which uses Hezbollah to conduct militant operations across the region, particularly in Lebanon and Syria.

"For the first time, Hezbollah revealed drones and the short-range 75-kilometer Khaibar missile that it used during the July 2006 war with Israel," according to the Middle East Media Research Institute, or MEMRI, which unearthed the information from various pro-Hezbollah media outlets....

This mess needs to be destroyed. How are children watching a parade going to be safe is this is the kind of hatred leveled at others. This is just a bad idea. 

HONORING soldiers that scarified their lives is the answer to any military museum. In the USA, the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum is as exotic as it gets. We do not have military munition museums. This is crazy. 

Destroy this mess and honor the dead that secured Lebanon and Syria from Deash. They are far more important to memorialize then stupid machines!

Naming streets after assassins is also unhelpful. What next?

Pro-Hezbollah politicians in south Beirut (click here) were accused of provocation on Tuesday for naming a street after the assassin who plotted the murder of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafiq Hariri.

To rub salt in the wound, the street is adjacent to the city’s Rafiq Hariri University Hospital. Hariri’s son, Prime Minister Saad Hariri, described the decision by Ghobeiry municipality as “sedition.” 

Hezbollah commander and bomb-maker Mustafa Badreddine was described last week by the prosecution at the Special Tribunal for Lebanon in The Hague as “the main conspirer” in the assassination of Hariri, who died when his motorcade was blown up in central Beirut in February 2005. Badreddine himself was murdered in Damascus in 2016.

The decision to name the street after him was “unconstitutional” and “an unnecessary act of provocation,” a source at the Interior Ministry told Arab News.

“There is no precedent for resorting to these methods in naming streets, especially when the name is the subject of political and sectarian dispute between the people of Lebanon and may pose a threat to security and public order.”...
