Was the Lebanese Army command not embarrassed? No, were they not ashamed? Yesterday, while the Lebanese Army was shelling the Nahr Al-Barid refugee camp, its command issued a statement to the effect that Israeli planes violated Lebanese airspace and flew over Lebanon. The Lebanese Army did what it does in those situations: it did nothing. Did the Lebanese Army not see the irony, as it was shelling a refugee camp? Did the Lebanese people not see the irony? (And by the way, do you notice that Hariri TV is pretending that Lebanon is in a state of peace and prosperity? Throughout this crisis, Hariri TV was playing a variation of Superstar.)
