Room for improvement
From the Angry Arab. I don’t know whether this is true, but it wouldn’t surprise me:
Hasan Dib Nasrallah is now in Israeli custody. So you heard about that brilliant Israeli special forces’ operation in Ba`albak. So Israeli Orientalists as you all know think that there is one Mahmud Husayn in the entire Arab world, and one Muhammad `Ali…. So Israel “was told” that there is a certain Hasan Nasrallah at the hospital. The very commander of the airforce was put in charge to plan this daring kidnapping of Hasan Nasrallah. Well, it was a civilian by the name of Hasan Dib Nasrallah. They kidnapped other civilians along with him…. Hasan Dib Nasrallah is now in Israeli custody wondering why he was kidnapped. In that “daring raid” Israeli occupation soldiers also kidnapped Muhammad Nasrallah, a shepherd, but later released him. He was 14. Israeli Orientalists thought that Hasan Nasrallah is a bit older. Later, to cover the fiasco, the Israeli army claimed that they kidnapped “members of Hizbullah.” Even that claim was a lie, says New TV which investigated the story and interviewed the family members. The kidnapped Lebanese are poor construction workers.
This calls to mind a little known story which Steven Spielberg left out in his movie Munich: The only act of international terrorism ever committed in my country, Norway, was done by Mossad in 1973, when their hit team murdered Ahmed Bouchiki, an innocent Moroccan waiter whom they mistook for a Black September leader. The mix-up was mind-numbingly stupid, as was their attempt to get away, although some of them did escape.
Being experienced at terrorism doesn’t necessarily mean you get it right.
