After grandiose promises of Construction Jihad last year, Hezbollah is now dragging its feet on commitments to rebuild in Bint Jbeil and other areas of southern Lebanon. One home-owner told the NY Times:
“They told us everything was going to be rebuilt soon,” Mr. Seyed said Tuesday, speaking of town leaders. “They’re not doing anything now. We want to build but they won’t let us. They promise to pay us, but they don’t. All we want is our homes back and they won’t even let us have them!”
