Forza Italia!

This was posted on Lebanese Bloggers by Raja. It also brought a smile to my face:

Keeping the spirit high -

In 1982, Italy won the world cup and Israel invaded Lebanon
In 2006, Italy won the world cup and Israel invaded Lebanon

Message to all Lebanese people:
Next time Italy wins the world cup, we all go immediately
down to the shelters!!

Mr. President, your mic is still on!

Great animation!

And that's a spooky coincidence about Italy winning the World Cup and Lebanon being invaded... There was also a parallel between 1982 and 2006 in terms of football corruption in Italy. If there was ever any proof needed that history does, indeed, repeat itself...

I guess this explains why they always say:
"The Italians did it"
(in arabic: el hakk 3al telyen)
