Macabre-land

Yep, that's UXO.
A new theme park has opened in south Lebanon. I really can't put words to it that would do it justice...

Fortunately, the wire reports of this macabre display are limited to fauxtographs. I'll post actual news articles here, if they ever materialize. (I'm not holding my breath. How does one explain this to the reader, anyway?)

The festival took place on a plain piece of land where once buildings and houses existed, which were demolished following Israeli forces' bombardment during the 34-day long Hezbollah-Israel conflict.

Here is what a handful of random people think about this article. But first, the fine print:
The opinions expressed here, even where approved for display, do not necessarily reflect the opinions of this website, the management, or any other entity or organization, with the exception of the Vast Zionist Conspiracy. Those opinions we represent in style, yo. Please keep the language in these comments clean, as this is intended to be a family-friendly, work-friendly website. Comments not compliant with this policy will be edited for content where necessary. Abusive or otherwise illegal comments will be reported to the proper authorities, up to and including the aforementioned Vast Zionist Conspiracy. The Management cannot and will not be held responsible for commenters making a spectacle of themselves, even if The Management are the said commenters in question. In other words, don't take yourself so seriously, folks. We're all here to discuss the news, and more importantly, to have fun. Now go get yourself into some OCD treatment program—you obviously need it if you actually read all of this mess.
