Amazing Arabs; Samir Kuntar


Amazing Arabs

أنتم تعشقون الحياة ونحن نعشق الموت

When facing oppression, a man has two choices - to resist or remain silent. It takes a man of great conviction and honor to risk his life and rise up against the oppressor, and very rarely is the world given the opportunity to recognize the achievements of such a man. Today, however, the sun once again shines on the noble Aran nation, as the resistance hero Samir Kuntar has been liberated from the grasp of the Zionists!

While heroes of resistance are frequently recognized only in death, our hero Samir is born again and has received the hero's welcome that he so deeply deserved and the praise due to him from all factions in Lebanon. Our hero Samir was not content to enjoy life in Beirut at the nightclubs and cafés. Rather, he selflessly dedicated his life to his cause, our cause, and snuck into Zionist occupied territory to strike at the enemy. His insatiable thirst for freedom was not quenched by the murder of Zionist security personnel, so he went a step further in our struggle. Knowing that the Zionists are crafty, he even smote the disguised oppressor, the oppressor of the future, and smashed a small girl's head open. This is our hero!

Perhaps our hero doesn't even know that when he struck fear into the hearts of the Zionists that another, a second young Zionist oppressor, died while being accidentally smothered by her mother. I am sure that today he is smiling just thinking of the burial of yet another young Jew.

The noble Lebanese nation recognizes the selfless struggle of the child killer Samir, and the man of faith, the hero and leader Nasrallah who worked tirelessly for his just release. Now Samir can taste freedom once again, the freedom that he struggled for. Resistance is a way of life for our heroes, and some day we can only hope to be as brave as Samir. The world will see us resist our oppressors, and the justice of our cause may not be recognized after the murder of only 2 children, but some day this will change. We can only hope that the blood of scores of little children will cleanse our land of the occupation and bring us peace and freedom that we, as human beings, so rightly deserve.

We salute you Samir, you are an amazing Arab! And we salute those who organized your welcoming party!
