Creating Terrorists
We are watching an exercise in "How to Create Terrorists".

I'm reminded of a story that Civil War author Shelby Foote once told about a group of captured Confederate soldiers. The Yankees asked them why they were fighting, especially since none of them owned slaves.
"We're fighting because y'all are down here," one of the Rebels replied.

The Lebanese people will respond because they have been invaded and it won't matter, at least at the start, who they have to ally with to accomplish the end goal of pushing the Isrealis back. After all," the enemy of my enemy is my friend," and it goes on and on.
