In the Lebanese civil war, children were distinguished by the quality of the cannons and shells from the voices of their sound. They exchanged information analysis among themselves: this is the bombing of 70/2 or this RPG. The most experienced among them knew the dates of the fronts, the hours of the truce agreed between the fighting, and the map of safe roads.
Now you have to live with the bustle of Israeli enlightenings. One caliber does not change. You hear it clearly and do not know where, unless the Israeli army spokesman will come. On the screen of your phone, it lights up a red spot attached to a war warning: Everyone in this region must move away from 500 meters. The strengthening increases in mystery because it is in all atmosphere, and it is not known at any moment that turns into an explosion of the type that shakes the earth and the sky.
Never complain or complain. You will say your listener complaining about your grumbling, what if you are in the south? What if you are in the Bekaa? All you have to do is wait for the next truce. This is a country that has no permanent war or permanent peace. Just a truce, or is intended and bucket. Constant monotonous, annoying, ugly, chasing the arteries of calm and reassurance.
Children alone find names of these types of terror. Or rather the numbers, calibers and “codes”. The difference between the past war and these punctured marches are all weather, no volatile or fixed barriers. Also, there is no clear reason for it. It started as support for Gaza, and has not yet ended on the Beirut Airport road, or anywhere in Lebanon, according to Netanyahu’s threat.
When you hear that, what are you doing? Looking from the balcony to read where his next threat will implement this rug about the Mediterranean basin. And you realize how much you need children’s experience, in order to be known for any weapons that are going through the new war. Or at any moment the truce will fall. As for the war, it has no end. This is her country.* Quoted from the newspaper “Al -Sharq Al -Awsat”
