Iran 'to militarily assist' Lebanon army
http://www.aljazeera.com/news/middl...y-assist-lebanon-army-201493010105280182.html

A senior Iranian official has said that Tehran will supply the Lebanese army with military equipment to be used in fighting armed groups.

Ali Shamkhani, secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, told reporters in Beirut on Tuesday that the details would be announced during an upcoming visit by Lebanon's defence minister to Tehran.

A diplomatic source told the Reuters news agency that the Iranian defence minister would soon ask his Lebanese counterpart for a list of weapons needed by the army.

Shamkhani is expected to meet Lebanese officials, including Prime Minister Tamman Salam and Speaker Nabih Berri.

The Lebanase army has been stepping up efforts to prevent Sunni Muslim fighters from Syria entering Lebanese border towns.



Didn't the Saudis just give Lebanon $3bn Dollars worth of arms? :damn:


France and Saudis 'finalising' $3bn Lebanon arms deal - http://www.middleeasteye.net/news/f...anon-arms-deal-709962666#sthash.0gAJkr19.dpuf







A pattern has been emerging whereby the Saudis spent money and effort to gain influence in a neighbouring country as part of the fight with Iran for dominance in the region...only for them Iranian boys to come through and crush the buildings.

Spent so much money, time and effort in Iraq...Syria...Yemen..Lebanon...and they all ended up under the Iranian sphere of influence :mjcry:

What's the opposite of the Midas touch :wtf:?


At least Egypt is going alright :smugdraper:

They are like the rich douchebag villains from 80s teen movies

Now that we have our own oil ties are getting weaker.... they are not extremely Islamic enough for groups like ISIS.... their days are #d. Maybe not in the next couple of years, but def the next few decades

They can't keep sending people to the gallows without their population rising up.

They can't keep greasing palms of an elite few and thinking that shyt is going to slide

They need more Ls.

The Saudis get away with so much shyt that it is unconceivable. They've been laying low and putting in work, and letting others take the blowback and repercussions. For decades.

They just beheaded I don't how many people, including for drug trafficking and for being "witches". No freedom of religion. Treat women like subhumans. Kill homosexuals. Kill those who dare speak out against Islam, their prophet or their kingdom.

Don't underestimate the Saudis breh. They are the regional hegemony in the mideast. They're sitting on a powerful military and more cash than you can imagine.

And if the monarchy goes it wouldn't be replaced by non-executors. It would be replaced by ISIS types

But yes... Iran is doing well in expanding their influence lately for sure.

the only thing they have going for them is:

1. the world would flip its shyt if the home if islam was invaded
2. worldwide energy resources would tank. like instantly. like...return to the 1800s.
3. most muslims are sunni's....

Exactly. Yet this piece of shyt Administration wants to sanction African countries over anti-gay laws. All because the gay lobby hates Africa. Those homos wont speak out against the saudi's though. :smh: The HYPOCRISY is so brazen is hilarious.

Liberals will ignore this though.

I know this sound far fetch but I think their collapse will happen next president term or next 8 years. Their proxies aren't as effective before and I believe U.S ties are getting weaker. If Iran gets a nuke which they will and deserve shyt will hit the fan. Country uprising will hit them just watch.

Definitely. Most Saudis don't actually mind the monarchy for this reason. The House of Saud is a source of continuing stability...otherwise the country would fragment along many different lines...conservatives Vs everyone...tribal rivalry...Shias etc


As far as their military, their spending is close to the UK spending on defence but no where near as effective. They have always bought fancy new gadgets.....Saddam still rolled on them tho. They had more fighter jets than actual personnel trained to fly them in '91 lol.

Stability on the source of others they single handily cause chaos in the Middle East to protect themselves and any other Islamic country that can counter balance their power.

I meant inside the Kingdom of course. That's what the poster I quoted was referring to.

But you'e right, their paramount objective is to maintain the rule of the current monarchy.
