Lebanese Activist Jailed for 'Collaborating' with Israel
|
[AnNahar] Leb
 ...an Iranian colony situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozeen flavors of Christians. It is the home of Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
's military prosecution on Monday sentenced an activist to three years in prison for "collaborating" with Israel and traveling to it, a judicial source said.
The National News Agency said Kinda al-Khatib was sentenced for allegedly visiting Israel, contacting Israeli agents and providing them with security information.
Lebanon is technically still at war with Israel and forbids its citizens from traveling there.
Al-Khatib was detained in June with her brother, who was later released. According to local media reports, she had visited Israel by crossing from Jordan.
Al-Khatib had been active on social media, where she harshly criticized Lebanon's Iran-backed  Hizbullah
...Party of God , a Leb militia inspired, founded, funded and directed by Iran. Hizbullah refers to itself as The Resistance and purports to defend Leb against Israel, with whom it has started and lost one disastrous war to date, though it did claim victory...
and its ally President Michel Aoun
...president of Leb, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hizbullah...
Her family and activists have denounced her arrest as "political" because of her tweets against those in power.
Lebanese media and activists have drawn a parallel between Khatib's case and that of actor Ziad Itani, who was also accused of "collaborating" with Israel in 2017.
Itani was declared innocent and released several months later, and a high-ranking security officer was then charged with "fabricating" the case.
