Lebanon, on Friday, condemned the Israeli army for storming archaeological sites in southern Lebanon, along with Israeli archaeologist, Zeev Erlich, who was killed along with a soldier the day before, to falsify history and manipulate facts, Anadolu Agency reports.
Lebanon’s Culture Minister, Mohammad Al-Murtada, said in a statement that the storming of the Israeli forces escorting Erlich is a grave violation of a UNESCO resolution aimed at protecting the country’s historical and cultural sites from Israeli attacks.
Al-Murtada said Erlich entered Shama town in southern Lebanon, armed and escorted by Israeli forces, to examine the shrine of Prophet Shamoun and falsely claim that it is “Israeli heritage”.
“The alleged Israeli history in our land is nothing more than a myth that has no connection to actual historical truth,” the Minister said.According to Israeli media, Erlich is a well-known settler who was living in a settlement in the Occupied West Bank.
“Settler” = Fucking thieves.
Israel needs to be stopped. They are looking for “excuses” to bomb and raid others. Makes you question whether or not they “let” HAMAS raid them just so that they had an excuse to absolutely genocide the Palestinian people.
