Rising military tensions between Israel and lebanon and memories about them

Few days ago, on May 24th, Lebanon commemorated the sixth anniversary of the Israeli partial withdrawal from its southern territory. This was the only withdrawal made without negotiations and under internal Israeli pressure due to mounting casualties provoked by guerilla warfare against Israeli Occupation Army in the south. Even the south lebanese army, a militia paid by Israel to fight against anti-Israeli resistance in the south, had to withdraw with the Israeli army. Those Lebanese live now in Israel, they were granted citizenship last year and there are talks between Lebanese factions to let them return to Lebanon.

Recent tensions are due to the fact that through UN, Israel wants Lebanese militia Hezbollah disarmed. However, because of its victory against the Israeli occupation, shiite Hezbollah is well regarded in Lebanon, even by Lebanese from other religions and factions. Talks about its disarmament have been going nowhere...

Israel has always something to say in Lebanese internal affairs, as Lebanon hosts resistance against Israel and as it hosts the Palestinians, those whom Israel wants to get rid of by any means. Yesterday, Israel killed two members of Islamic Jihad by a car bomb device in the south. Consequently, Hezbollah, the only active armed resistance operating against Israel in neighbouring Arab countries and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine exchanged fire with the Israeli army in an escalation that led to Israeli planes raiding the western part of south Lebanon. Al-Jazeera reported today casualties on both sides.

Lebanon's capital Beyrouth was the only Arab capital occupied by Israel (1982). Israel has always crossed the lebanese airspace whenever it suited them; during the 1967 and 1973 wars, in between and even before and after.

I remember, as a child, having to use minimum light during the night and even paintaing our light bulbs in blue in order not to be subjected to Israeli spare bombing when tossing tons of bombs on Palestinian camps. I remember the fear I had as a child. I remember the shade of Israeli planes flying the Lebanese airspace over Beyrouth. I remember my parents talking about the casualties in the morning. I remember my father promising to take me in a trip to Jerusalem at the end of my primary school years if I did well. And I remember him discussing why it was not possible to keep up his promise.
I remember Israel's later involvement in the Lebanese civil war, training Christian factions and helping in the killing of yet more Palestinians.
And when I read in the news about tensions between Israel and Lebanon, those are the first thoughts and memories that come to my mind...
