yeah "most" --- 55% Tokolosh, but er ah...Tony Blair just made the same misleading statement you just did when he addressed Paliament today.
An estimated 45% of citizens of Lebanon are Shiite fundamentalists & support Hezbollah. The current fighting is sure to push those numbers into the majority, as planned.
In Iraq we saw "free & democratic elections" basically translate to Sunni disenfranchisement & a push that elected a Shiite state-sponsored hardline Muslim extremist government just like neighbor Iran. This same trend will continue throughout the Middle East as the U.S. supposedly fights for "freedom" & instead engenders a new, much larger wave of anti-Zionist terrorists.
If one wants to boil all this down & distill it, then the basic substance of it all is that the U.S. is manipulating things to help the Shias gain a great amount of power in the whole mideast region. We are in league with them covertly & have been since Reagan. The push is being made to create a real terrorist enemy, much more substantial than the rag-tag al-Queda. It seems the DOD, the DOE, the military-industrial complex, & corrupt politicians want to be sure to create a scenario by which they can continue to pass bloated budgets that they can siphon & steal from at will. As the world has reached peak oil & the shit is certainly about to hit the fan in the coming years, those that are in power are making a mad grab for as much money as they can get their grubby hands on & if one addresses it properly, the same politicians can always villify the concerned critic by pointing a finger right back at them...you see, it's the "perfect" crime. Back during the cold war, one was a "commie" if they criticized U.S. policy. These days, one is labelled a "terrorist sympathizer" if they spread the truth that could threaten the activities of the thieves.
