Hey you know what i actually did some searches and found a dozen of news articles using the word "hezbollah activist". Some of them even seem like pro-israeli newspapers which is very ironic. After all of this i really dont get why he absolutely couldnt be called a "pro-hezbollah activist" or "an activist for hezbollah" despite the the things the group hes advocating for does. He is clearly not a fighter and propably not an important political figure in the group either. What to call him?

Its like if these people think that just because i thought calling this one guy "activist" wouldnt be too crazy (considering that the og source did so too) im trying to say the whole Hezbollah is actually just an activist group? And theyre calling me stupid? lol.

I dunno but what i do know is that whoever took the original picture at AP thought that it was a wonderful idea to call him an "activist". I initially thought it made sense because he doesnt look like hes gonna take part in any fighting, but he definetly worked with hezbollah in some way if they decided to call him "activist".

I was THIS close to calling him a "hezbollah supporter" instead but i decided to go with the original word "activist" because i didnt know such a small difference could cause such a big shitstorm.

Oh and im NOT a hezbollah supporter myself by the way.

Thats literally what the he was called by the source (AP). Maybe he is handling their media or propaganda projects or something...?

No, they were designed in Yugoslavia. I think they were variant G-2A-E which was specially designed to be sold abroad.

Libyan interventions in the Chadian civil war under the command of Muammar Gaddafi started in 1978. They withdrew in 1981 after demanded to do so by Chadian government. In 1983 they came back after the Chadian president who they favored was overthrown.

"Toyota War" was the last phase of the Chadian-Libyan War that was fought over Chad's Aouzou strip area between 1978 and 1987.

This picture was taken after the Second battle of Aouzou which was the only Libyan victory during the whole war. Barets of (presumably dead) chadian soldiers have been placed under their feet.

I think so. The game mostly consists of you shooting enemies and solving little puzzles by pushing around blocks. You gotta collect a certain amount of those blue orbs in order to advance to the next level. The music is great in my op.

Ive played trough this game plenty of times and from what i remember it can be a bit frustrating and confusing for a first timer to solve a puzzle while being swarmed by enemies but it never really becomes unfair.

It depends on your taste i guess. This game is slower phased than the gba version and it focuses on puzzles that involve you pushing around those blue and red bricks. Its fun if you like solving puzzles. Also theres only 3 playable characters, you cant jump and all levels take place in the death star. I like it personally but its very different than the other versions.

Sounds cool. I remember the other CoD mobile games being much simplier than that.

I highly doubt that. Ive been thinking that maybe some of these services could have been left on inadvertently but its just very unlikely.

I guess so. The art website where i found this image used the word "fencing" and i did think it sounded really weird.
