The irony is that hezbollah formed as a result of Israel invading Lebanon in 1982.
Yes, Israel invaded Lebanon in 1982 because the PLO was attacking Israel from there.
Which was because Israel attacked, which was because the arab countries attacked, which was because Britain decided to put Israel in Palestine.
So basically all parties should attack Britain
The British Empire. Attack it if you like...it m No longer exists.
It's the one country with most remaining colonial influence. Look up the British Commonwealth.
I am well aware of that institution, more than you are it seems.
You really consider India to be a colony of the United Kingdom?
Not really as it has its own republic. Like all countries in pink
However it's influence is still huge. If their monarch is in your money out their flag is in yours there is s bit more to it than a decolonised entity.
Exactly. Glad we agree.
I reworded colonies to colonial influence in my original post, as I felt it more accurate.
My point is the last time they tried to invade everyone to get rid of the terrorists, they just created more terrorists in more areas.
