Lebanese commandos are known to eating snakes at their their graduation ceremonies and during the shows they do occasionally. However, at one event they had to substitute the snake with a live chicken because of the cold weather, I have no idea about the relation between the two but that’s what the report says!
I personally might consider eating a snake as a macho act, but I’m not so sure when it comes to a chicken…! It would have been perfect thought if the video showed one of the Lebanese Darak doing the same thing, you know with all the jokes about how much they love to eat chicken sandwiches!
It seems the snakes hide during the cold weather… but eating an alive chicken is not that dangerous??? especially that raw chicken affect the Salmonella poisoning.
ewww! that’s disgusting.
I think this is very disturbing. Am I the only one who thinks this is animal cruelty at its height?!
I didn’t want to play the video because like Sami O said, I think this is animal cruelty too. I mean, oooh what a macho man, he can bite the head of a poor defenseless bird. Move over countries of the world, you may have guns, you may have nuclear arms, but we, WE have an army that can bite heads off chickens.
On the other hand, why doesn’t he join the cast of Survivor?
Biting the head of a chicken ?! Ya Mama ! Shou Hal Wahesh !!
Let’s put him in a ring with Mike Tyson for a round.
Ya nouskon ento taba3 l animal cruelty. God I am getting sick of this fake and blind westernization!
He is a special forces soldier and he might need to eat a chicken alive to survive in a warzone/enemy lines for example. I don’t see why you are mocking him instead of backing him up! We2fit 3a djeji ye3ni?!
@Gilles
Here’s a “secret” tip to our “special forces soldiers” … ya Gilles.
Twist the neck of the Chicken (you don’t need to bite off his head). Pluck his feathers. Remove intestines. Make small fire. Use army knife to cut chicken into four or six pieces. Grill chicken. Eat tasty “cooked” chicken. Take a nap.
@Gilles
And I forgot the most important part …
Invite “enemy in war zone” to share half of the cooked chicken with you and discuss the obvious psychological problems “superiors” seem to have.
@ MissDemean
Your story is very entertaining, but unfortunately it’s very imaginative. He’s a soldier not a pro housewife who can cook a chicken like a pro. Plus I doubt he has that much free time on his hands to go through his extensive process of eating a chicken.
Good Try though! I’ll give you that. =)
omg that is horrifying!
@Gilles
Ya Gilles,
Time is what our dear army have had the most of throughout the past 70 years doing absolutely Jack shit in our country … apart from draining our tax funds for nothing!
Show me one video of an Israeli or Hizballah solider engaging in such an utterly stupid demonstration.
@Gilles
I don’t know where to begin. When has our army been in a real war? They run and leave the militias to do the job. All armies have knives so I doubt they will need to bite the head off otherwise like one commenter already mentioned, just quickly snap the head off. As to your reply about the soldier not being a pro housewife to cook a chicken in the most basic way possible……….REALLY?????? Is that a real answer on your behalf or some kind of an attempt at a joke??? How do you think men living on their own survive? You think no man can cook? Soldiers clean toilets and make their own beds and polish their shows…etc. Unless they send their mommies with them in the Lebanese army which is a BIG possibility seeing how spoiled Lebanese men are. Grow a brain both you and that soldier.
I cannot deny the army’s indifference towards militia’s causing chaos in Lebanon, but let’s not forget their heroism in Nahr L Bared 2007. Your memory seems too short Miss Demean.
However, if you think that training for an X situation requires a training session for an X situation, you are wrong. Armies always train and prepare for the worst. I am sure he will have a knife in real life.
I used the term “pro housewives” since they are experts in cooking compared to men that are not ALWAYS the best cooks. This has nothing with sexism.
As for asking me to grow a brain, it truly shows your manners. Thank you!
Really Nahr El Bared, is that all you have???? Have you been there? Have you talked to the people living there about it? Have you not heard of all the money donated to rebuild it but nothing actually happening. Please that was no heroic story whatsoever, on the contrary it is a blib of shame in the history of the army.
Listen Yawn,
I don’t care about rebuilding and the money donated and all that commotion.
All I care about is that there are soldiers, and yes heroes, died there so that a low-life foreigner does not attack you or your mom or any member of your family. There are wives and mothers who lost their beloved ones there. If you have no respect for that, you don’t deserve to even mention them.
You have disgusted me so much that I can’t even reply to you anymore. With people thinking like you, I am not surprised Lebanon is still that far behind!
Listen Gilles
It is actually because of people like yoy that Lebanon is still far behind. People who refuse criticism and introspection. People who think racism is heroism. People who think that Lebanon is a civilized heaven where in reality it is a shit creek and we need to wake up to that fact and work on it. Lebanese army history, if you have ever read of it and the analysis about it, is a history of treason, cowardice and sectarianism. Facts are facts and the soldiers died because they volunteered in the army. If you don’t want to die don’t go attacking people. They did fuck all about Fate7 Al-Islam because most of them had escaped the camp by the time the fight started and they are functioning as normal. It is the people that you don’t care about that suffered. The civilians. Again and again we attack Palestinian refugees and justify it with our stupid excuses.
Some people see Lebanon on their image and some not and by the way not all Lebanese are racist their is Nigerian/Sudanic and etc investors and domestic workers Indians/Sri Lankis and Philippine’s in some financial stocks
For the Lebanese Army its he’s free of choice maybe there some armies don’t like it and i thank god that our president used to be Christian since Lebanon & Cedar birth and Lebanon is the only country in the world and in history, which was mentioned by name in the Holy Bible … 71 times!!! (Yes, SEVENTY ONE) . (This is the most solid proof that Lebanon was never part of other countries … At the contrary, Lebanon’s neighbouring countries were once part of it. This is a historic fact.) http://www.yazbeck.com/roger/lebanon/bible.html
Ya Yawn,
Let’s keep this post to the point. I.e., Shish Tawook.
Ya Gilles,
Whose wives and mothers were lost due to and in Nahr El Bared, Ya 3ayni?

Well Said
This is the truth and that’s why most of the Lebanese are not proud of their arability in themselves due to these activities and I’m Lebanese and looking at myself and its not the fault of the person but the evil God Bless Lebanon and the earth
Made by man = Darkness
Made by god = Lightness
