Seen Around: Hezbollah Shirts

I was in Baalback this past weekend with the AUB Ambassadors and the new students showing them around Bekaa and AUB's farm (AREC).

What caught my attention is that everywhere I looked, there was a guy or a stand of Hezbollah T-shirts. What's worse is the look on the seller's face when you decline to buy a shirt from him. Seriously, I don't want to buy a shirt from you! I wouldn't even take it if you offered it to me, even if it was covered with gold!

Is this how Hezbollah is now funding its illegal weapons now?
(By the way, rumors are that these shirts are Made in Iran...)

Yeah, when I went to Baalbeck in July these guys were EVERYWHERE! There was even a Hizbullah-run exhibition right at the entrance of the ruins. Is it still there?

I'm not sure if it is still there. I didn't notice it.

Oh, you would have definitely noticed it. That probably means they removed it. *Sighs*
