and the million-dead question is:
Francesca Albanese, the UN special rapporteur: "It blows
my mind to think that WE KNOW what Israel
is doing and altogether we cannot stop it. Looking at
where we were 100 years ago,
no much progress has been achieved,"
So where will it end?

Al Jazeera - Oct 13, 2024 - By Tamara Saade
<<Cieco: A blind dog's journey from Nabatieh to Beirut, fleeing Israeli
bombs
Baabda, Lebanon - Cieco was enjoying a cool shower between pine trees as
the late summer sun set. As the soapy water washed off, his auburn and
caramel coat gleamed through and Barbara, satisfied, towelled him off
and walked him to the dog shelter within the Alyarz Leisure Club. The
date was September 27, and they were in Baabda, about 10km (6 miles)
from Beirut. Just as the Alyarz Pet Club (APC) volunteer released the
Dutch Shepherd-Plott Hound from his leash, loud explosions echoed.
Israel had dropped 80 bombs on Dahiyeh, the suburb south of Beirut, a
15-minute drive from the shelter. But deaf and blind Cieco could neither
hear nor see the explosions, he could only feel what he must have known
was encroaching danger.
Rescued after being shot in the faceCieco (meaning "blind" in Italian
and pronounced "Cheyko") had just gotten to the APC two days earlier, on
September 25, evacuated from the Mashala animal shelter in Nabatieh, on
the southern border between Lebanon and Israel. He had lived there for
two years, looked after by Mashala founder Houssein Hamza, who took him
in after he got a phone call telling him a dog had been found, shot in
the face. Multiple pellets - their origins unknown - remain lodged in
Cieco's face and skull. Hamza did not name the injured dog who came to
his shelter two years ago, focused on nursing him back to health, so
Cieco was named by the team when he arrived at the APC in Baabda. As
Israel intensified and widened its attacks on Lebanon last month, Hamza
began to worry about the most vulnerable animals in the shelter and
started planning to evacuate them. He posted a video on social media,
appealing for people to foster or look after a blind dog and cat, and
the Lebanese public responded generously.
In the following hours, dozens of people reached out, and a few days
later, Hamza entrusted the blind cat and dog to a taxi driver in Sidon,
who transported them to Beirut. The 90-minute journey stretched for
hours due to heavy traffic from people fleeing the south, compounded by
relentless Israeli bombing along some routes.
How much of it Cieco felt is a mystery.
When he arrived at the APC, he needed time to adapt to life at the
shelter and to slowly be introduced to other dogs and his surroundings.
"He was isolated at first to get used to the smells around him. He was
extremely scared, not understanding who we are or where he is," Razanne
Khatib, the founder of APC, explained. "He would barely sleep. And if he
did, he would sleep while standing. We then introduced him to the other
dogs, and he now trusts his environment more."
'We need people to save animals'
Hamza has never considered evacuating from the south himself, as about
one million people have done across Lebanon in the last few weeks.
Leaving the shelter and animals behind is not an option, he said. "For
society to thrive, we need people to save humans, but also people to
save animals. And another part to help the environment. If you only
think you can help the humans and not other beings, you disrupt society,
and the environment." Over the past 18 years, he has tended to dogs,
cats, and chickens, relying on the goodwill of people and private donors
to provide food and shelter for the animals and compensation for his
helpers. Initially, he took in pets only from his village. But he slowly
expanded, unable to turn an animal away until his shelter, equipped to
host 150 animals. Now, has some 300 dogs, 50 cats and other animals. Now
residing in Kfour, a bit further from the border, Hamza has adopted a
new daily routine as Israel's attacks increased in recent weeks. While
he used to check on the animals daily, the more dangerous roads made the
drives less frequent and he now ensures there is enough food to last the
animals a few days, in case he cannot return immediately. Hamza also
checks on animals left in deserted villages, feeds any strays, and
coordinates with shelters across the country to get as many animals as
possible into safer environments. "At home, I take care of my chickens,
cats, and birds, feeding them before heading to the shelter," he said.
"First thing, I feed and water the animals, then [I do a] round of the
area. I feed the village animals, and sometimes people tell me about
dogs frightened by the planes and explosions, so I check on them and the
animals left behind." The situation has not improved in Nabatieh, and
Hamza finds himself busier by the day. But the rescuers who took the
animals from him send him regular updates.
Sandra Mouawad, the founder of the Paws Crossed Lebanon shelter in
Beirut, took in the blind cat, who was named Jupiter, while APC took the
dog they later named Cieco.
'My fate is in His hands'
During the onslaught that killed Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah two
days after Cieco arrived in Baabda, some dogs at the facility began to
growl and bark while others huddled in their enclosures, frightened by
the chaos. Cieco barely moved, although he was probably shaken by the
vibrations. The night that followed was a nightmare for the people in
Dahiyeh, facing Israel's demand that they evacuate certain areas before
bombing them through the night. Families with children, the elderly, and
animals were forced to sleep on the streets. Lebanon's most vulnerable
communities, already weakened by the multitude of crises over the past
few years, were left even more helpless. And animals were not spared. On
October 4, the APC posted footage of animals panicking and crowing in
fear as Israeli explosions went off in the background. But shelters
across Lebanon, as well as Hamza, are defiant, saying that now is the
time to step up, and not back down. "The more you love something, the
more that love grows over time," Hamza explained, referring to his love
for the animals he cares for. "My conscience didn't allow me to leave
them behind, even though my family had all left. If I didn't love these
animals as much as I do, I wouldn't still be here. But I love them, and
I trust in God - my fate is in His hands."
