Correction: The US Ambassador in Lebanon gives an unprecented admission of US role in the Lebanese Civil war on the side of fascist Phalanges militia



"Well, this is my first official visit to the Kateab party headquarters since the election of Sheikh Sami as the President of the party.  So this is an occasion for me to express my warm congratulations and my deep respect not just for Sheikh Sami, but for his father, and for his family who have played such a distinguished role in Lebanon, and for this party, a party that is a pillar of stability and of the values that so many Lebanese share: the values of freedom, of independence for this country, and of sovereignty for Lebanon.  These are values that the United States very much supports, which is why we have had such a strong partnership between us and the Kataeb party for so many years now." The picture above is when the Phalanges and other pro-Israeli fascist militias in Lebanon committed the massacre of Tal Az-Za`tar back in 1976, on this very day.

PS Correction: the picture above is for a car of the Arab Socialist Union militia during the Hotels' Wars in 1976 in Beirut, and the body is for that of a sniper of the Phalanges.  I copied the picture from the Tal Az-Za`tar martyrs page on Facebook but I should have verified it.  Apologies.
