Gaza: returning the hostages

Lebanon: returning the northern settlers to their homes

How about you just return the land you freaks

The invasion is officially on according to resistance media.

My guess is that there certain vetos by the US, Turkey and Russia when it comes to invading Syrian government territory, so they’re targeting someone like Maher to signal that they’re on the side of the rebels and to try to embolden them into starting something to stop the current frozen state of the war. They want chaos on the Syrian government side and hope on the rebel side, so that some kind of shift can occur and make Syria useless as a transition point for supplies from Iran and Iraq into Lebanon

There are rumors that Israel struck Maher Al Assad, brother of Bashar Al Assad yesterday, some of the Resistance sources are notoriously silent on that, so right now I’m assuming he’s dead. That’s someone that I won’t mourn at all, I’m not happy about the Israelis killing people, but Maher is such a notorious piece of shit so he’s better off dead. One day when I’m more emotionally stable and focused, you’ll get a full breakdown of Syria and how bad Assad’s rule really is. We like the Assad memes, but I do really hate him and his leech family. He’s better than the Jihadis, but that’s not a high bar tbh.

This will be the ground invasion of Lebanon megathread. May God protect everyone. My aunt and her little kids are on their way to the Syrian border now, the plan is that they make their way to Damascus by tomorrow and then stay with my cousin outside of Damascus. Plan B is that they make it to Damascus then register their names with one of the Iraqi refugee settling programs then go to Iraq which will be safer and the kids can actually go to school there without any bureaucratic nightmares. They’re resettling Lebanese families in the pilgrim hotels outside of Karbala and Najaf, so that sounds like a more manageable life than my cousin’s farm in the Damascus countryside.

Satan and his little family

It’s hard not to feel stabbed in the back by Iran. All that Resistance Axis talk, but we’re slowly realising that we’re just their Ukraine, they want the fight to be to the last Lebanese, Gazan and Syrian, but not to the first Iranian. This is just brutal, we lost our finest men in Haniyeh, Nasrallah and countless others, while they’re doing fucking deals under the table. This is not an equal relationship anymore, we’re just the bumper for their safety. May God have mercy on Soleimani and Abu Mahdi Al Muhandis, they would weep if they saw the state of the Axis today. I don’t want to be full on doomer, but the concept of the Axis itself is eroding under this Iranian inaction and lack of will.

Looks like Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah will be buried in Karbala, Iraq, next to Imam Hussein. There’s no more fitting spot on earth for him, I have made a promise to visit his grave as soon as possible. My wife has been feeling kinda homesick since birthing our son and she wants to go to Iraq for a few weeks, so there’s a very good reason for me to follow along now.

Thank you so much ❤️

With Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah’s martyrdom marking a very significant moment in the history of the resistance, I think that it puts a natural stop to my effortpost about the history about the pan-Shia moment. I’m also just too demoralised and sad to continue writing, maybe I’ll one day do another one of these in happier times. Thank you all for reading these, I can answer any questions if God gives me strength. I have one favor to ask, can someone please post this in the history or effortpost comms?

Part One

Part Two, it gets continued in the first comment

Part Three, it also gets continued in the first comment

I can’t believe it, I just can’t swallow this news. Nasrallah is the resistance, he’s Hezbollah, he’s the man that defeated Israel twice, he’s the greatest man that the region produced in the last 50 years, he’s the one that you could listen to for hours without being bored. What a loss, what a tragedy.

It’s a black day, it’s very hard to process. I’m frightened of what comes next.

لبيك يا نصرالله لبيك يا سيد المقاومة

Iranian media is trash, this was exactly the same playbook that we saw earlier with Soleimani and Raisi

لا حول ولا قوة إلا بالله العلي العظيم

Are we at a point where we can start to blame Iran for their slow ass reaction times? I understand the strategic planning and patience and all that. But it just gets frustrating seeing the cities of Iran’s “allies” get flattened every few years while the Iranians are chilling in the driving seat of the resistance while not even fucking touching the steering wheel. Hezbollah, Hamas, Ansarallah and Syria keep taking the devastating hits while Iran is egging everyone on. This doesn’t feel like an equal relationship anymore like in the days of the Syrian Civil War when Iranians were on the frontlines of Aleppo and Mosul. Israel doesn’t stop because Iran isn’t protecting their allies anymore, they’re using them as a sponge to suck up the hits while Iran is protected and trading with the likes of the UAE. I’m just rambling here, but it gets frustrating seeing Beirut getting pulverised and we can’t even get a little drone strike from Iran despite failing to protect Haniyeh in fucking Tehran. Resistance leaders were safer in fucking Qatar than the supposed HQ of the resistance

It’s okay for now, thank you anyway. We’re sending him some money which should be enough for now.

Waiting for a response for any message in the family group chat right now is fucking torture, I literally can’t deal with it anymore. I’ve sent my wife and the kid to her mom’s for a few days, they can’t see me and my dad like this. The two hours it took for my uncle to see the message and respond today were absolute hell, fuck this life. My aunt has little kids no older than 14, what if something happens. I’ve called my cousin from my mom’s side who has a little farm outside of Damascus in Syria, he can take in my dad’s family from Beirut, but how the fuck will they even leave with this situation, and my cousin is already dirt poor, how will he feed them. Too many thoughts spinning, nowhere to scream them out, nowhere to go and nothing to do, I almost wish I was there.
