long live lebanese kataeb nd forces

[omelabed]

TO HELL WITH THE LEBANESE FORCES AND THE KATAEB. THE CHRISTIAN MARONITE MILITIAS WERE THE ONES WHO DID 90% OF ALL THE MASACCRES IN THE WAR. FUCK THE GEMAYELS,CHAMOUN,HOBEIKA,GEAGE­A & ETTINE SAQR.

[CelticVictory]

Is this effectively just a home video?

[nanioushka]

@CelticVictory To be honest, there are other recordings before this one (family video). When war started, I guess someone wanted to record the way we lived so, they took a random VHS they found to make this recording and it got to be on one of my home videos.

[ItalieFranceLiban]

Even If I was born in Italy, I have many memories about lebanese civil war, I have maronite oncle, lebanese friends: christians, muslims and jews. I communicate to everyone. MERSII KTIIR FOR THIS REAL VIDEO, COMPLIMENTS REALLY. CIAO.

[zhala1000]

ouf..khalas...we are lebanes and stop this nonsence. i was there just when the war began, til the middle of it. its us teh lebanes that have to be blamed for it, am muslim, but after teh war i decided not to believe in anything after all the things i saw. lebanon already had issues even b4 PLO came, but the PLO stupid presence even triggard the tension.

syria, iran, egypt, palestineans, US, and israel played us like idiots and destroyed a nation that is trying hard to live together.

[CelticVictory]

@zhala1000 I don't think you can blame the U.S. or Israel for the Labanese Civil War. You yourself said that Lebanon had internal problems and that the PLO triggered and aggravated those problems. There doesn't have to be outside interference to instigate a conflict where such trouble already exists.

[amru33]

Ashrafieh the fascist wannabe Nazis Kateb committed the first 2 major massacres of the war then "the others followed".

1.Black Saturday Massacre December 6 1975 (200-600) killed

2. Karantina Massacre January 18, 1976 (1000+) killed

The killers loved hiding their faces with masks and wearing large cross necklaces.

[ashrafieh]

Throughout the Lebanese war history the PLO, Syrians & Muslims used the terrorist tactics we see today... Unfortunately the Christians had no choose but to follow that lead!

[ashrafieh]

AlMoRaBeToN - Please, Palestinians were killing Christians in the hundreds from Katarina and the Eastern Beirut 'refugee' camps! They're cowards, they (PLO Fighters) hid behind innocent people in those camps! They wouldn't surrender when the Christians had enough and surrounded them! Arafat the criminal gave orders for no one to surrender and leave, the Christians were even willing to allow them to leave peacefully!

[ashrafieh]

Part 2 - Throughout that battle the red cross was allowed into the camps by the Christians to take out the civilian population (Read up on it)...

You know what the cowards (Palestinians) did once in that battle... They pretended to surrender, the Christians like the kind hearted people they are walked out to meet them, they (Palestinians) then opened fire killing Christians Soldiers. Damour 200 dead? Palestinians and Merchant pigs killed about 4 x that much...

[ali1974a1]

@ashrafieh you are a liar.. the plo.. are the bravest.. they are tough and didnot do anyof this.. its the lebanese forces that petrayed lebanon.. go f urself

[omelabed]

@ashrafieh Dont blame the Palestinians for yr war.The murderers of women & children are the damn Maronite militias like the sick Lebanese Kataeb & Forces.The Palestinians fought bravely when the Israelis invaded Lebanon & defended Lebanon along with the National movement like Amal,communists,Baath,Hisbulla­h,Syrian National Party & the Druze.But the Maronite Parties supported the Isreali invasion & allied yrself with the Jews. The PLO is an honor 4 u; but u always want to lie & blame the PLO.

[ali1974a1]

@ashrafieh yoyu are a liar.. toz feek wbelashrafieh... you are a liar.. even bakradouni addmitted on tv when he talked about the lebanese war he said the palestinians did not care and they were brave.. unlive you cowards who only killed innocent civilians.. kess emak

[omelabed]

@ashrafieh Where were u damned & coward christians when Israel invaded yr country ya ibn alsharmouta. The PLO fought bravely & defended u. Why didnt u christians fight the israeli invaders. If u fucking Lebanese forces were so peaceful as u say, then why did u murder 4000 palestinians & Lebanese muslims in the Tal Elza3tar camp massacre?Why did u peaceful christians butcher 2500 Palestinians & muslims in Sabra & Shatila camp massacre ? Stop lying & forging history !!!

[Armynian]

AlienFirefox your Zionist Dirty Jew basterd you lucky your people didn't get wipe out after killing Our Gods son Jesus. Get lost Trader!!! And Beware soon we will be in your House!!!

[AlienFirefox]

why didnt you just wipe yourselves out

saves all you bastards coming here and causing shit

[santo442]

Fuck the war. Long live lebanon

[nluv111]

lebanon is just a market like all other markets for the goods(weapons, food, energy, entertainment) of the united and pwerful COUNTRIES as iran, saudi arabia, france, US.... whom priorities are knowledge and inventions which enables them to live at ease and at our expense

[BlackSemitic]

No more Islam

[mughaleazamfan]

It is very sad that wars are still happening even after WWII...not only in Lebanon but elsewhere too...I can imagine how traumatising it is to hide from bombs all the time...it's scary...

I hope Lebanon has recovered from the 15 year civil war (1975-1990) as well as the recent 2006 Cedar Revolution...my prayers will always be with the Lebanese people...may they live in peace and harmony always...

love, Gaby from Malaysia

[roubybertizlian]

lebnen :( i miss uuu

[nabih54]

kilna 2ouwet !

go to [ lebanon war 34 of 85 ] , listen to what some christian figures ( including lebanese forces karim bakradoni) say about damour and why it happened ... damour attack was planned by syrian rejime and done by pro syrian factions

[LEBLUV32]

allah el 7akim wel ouwet

[lebforces18]

this is druing General Aoun stupid war...fuck him and all his stupid motherfucking followers...

[ils1979]

long live the general...he was about uniting lebanon you stupid prick...go follow your independant factions so lebanon can fall to pieces

[judopathoftruth]

Ok them aswell

y3ni im not defending what they did maf7oom?

[judopathoftruth]

never ever forget.

i wasnt born but iv been reading into this

how awful and scray it is.

May god have mercy on the Israelies and Phalangists.

this is what humans do

[judopathoftruth]

im referring to the palestinian refugee camp massacare

[AlMoRaBeToN]

kid,you need to read history before you open your mouth. Damoour massacre only happened and was a response after phalangists massacred 2000 muslim lebanese and palestinians in karantina and maslakh..and by the way, damour attack was planned by syrian rejime and done by pro syrian factions.. and for history you need to check your info again, no more than 200 hundreds died in damour. so stop your phalangist rubbish propaganda.

[AlMoRaBeToN]

go to [ lebanon war 34 of 85 ] , listen to what some christian figures ( including lebanese forces karim bakradoni) say about damour and why it happened before you open your mouth and talk crap.

[AyriDivine]

This is during Aoun's war. That war carries with it the only memories I have of the war.

[jplumads]

It's wonderful that you still have this original video. Who was shooting the bombs you mentioned?

[tessler6868]

um. could be east LA (usa) today. don't get it. perhaps narration of captions to help viewers out?

[nanioushka]

I didn't get your comment...

[tessler6868]

sorry, i don't get your video. what are we watching?

[nanioushka]

as the title says it, this is a video of the Lebanese Civil War that took place in the years mentioned in the title. If you want to know more about it, just google it and Wikipedia will give you a brief idea of it:).

[tessler6868]

i'm not unfamiliar with lebanese war. i just don't know who/what i'm looking at. is it a family? were they shelled or bombed out of apartment? what?

like i said, i could show you people and buildings in east los angeles that look like that TODAY.

[nanioushka]

oh okay, sorry I didn't get you. You're seeing my neighborhood. It's not a made up video. If you check the cars and you check the two parts, you would realize that it's REAL footage. Besides, look at the quality of the video. Did you watch both parts from beginning to end?

[tessler6868]

no. not yet. i'm sort of in middle of long discussion, lol. but are they homeless? where are they and why are they on 1st floor? was there and incident earlier? i don't know what i'm looking at. perhaps you could see it from perspective of someone who doesn't know your language, neighbor,hood people and add some english captions. that's all. ty

[nanioushka]

lol ok dear. They're not homeless, you actually hear the bombs outside and so that the civilians stay protected, they go and protect themselves under the apartments (you see in this video our case). Whenever you'll have the time and you will watch this video, you will see everything and understand what is the situation.

[nanioushka]

Now about the captioning, it's not my language, I'm Armenian and not Lebanese but I can tell you that they're just trying to find joyful subjects to talk about and forget the bombs.

[nanioushka]

I wonder if my sentences made sense...when I have a lot of ideas in my head, my sentences tend to be written in gibberish...

anyways if you didn't get what I wrote I'll re-write it again lol.

[eliosultan]

air fikon kilkon ya 7ameer becuase of all these fuked up politicians theres more lebanese abroad then in lebanon:S all of u comenting are probobly in london or canada or australia or brasil:S and u stil support al them mother fukers kiss ikhton kilon bi ayre kil wa7ad belo bi 7alo w talama 3am bi 3abo bi jyebon kil chi tamem:S w airrrrr lek kil wa7ad e3id bi asir honik ma7el w ni7na kilna mhajarin w mafina n3eesh bi bledna!! ayre fiyon kilong w kiss ikhit al siyese bi ayre

[dola49]

Look, how this person stupidty and ego control his mind!!

He think that he is better than anyone in this world, most of all from muslims..

if you think you are better, than go pry and wish to die so you can go to heaven if you are better then us.

we muslims are friends with christians, we respect them like brother as long they respect us.

not like u asshole, SANESTILIBAN jews PIG!!

[SANESTILIBAN]

seriously...i'll rather be a PIG than one of yours..hihi

[bigmedge]

in what year did you record this mate?

[nanioushka]

in 1989:)!

[bigmedge]

A guy I now work with emigrated to the US in the late 70s after his brother & brother's girlfriend got killed at a road checkpoint outside Beirut simply cause they were Christians. I hope all your relatives & friends survived the hell of those years.

NY Times' head reporter in the middle east in the 80s wrote a great book called "From Beirut to Jerusalem," so I learned a lot about the civil war, but in a way, it's still shocking that the Switzerland of the ME turned into such a bloodbath

[azizou961]

Tinzakar w ma ten3ad, impressive video and thanks for sharing :)

[mrolympiae]

my uncle is an assassin and he would have no problem killing a dirty son of the bitch rat like u.

[Bountykilla82]

You sound like those bastards in hezbollah when you talk like that. You ought to ask the Holy Spirit to direct your efforts to more positive and useful things then to say something foolish

that makes you sound like a terrorist. That kind of attitude my brother in Christ is what got Hamas where their at now, Virtually at their knees. For God humbles the proud and lifts up humble.

[mrolympiae]
