In a bizarre show of support for the victims of the Dahiyeh blast last Thursday which took the lives of 30 people<\/a>, a Lebanese couple decided to hold a photo shoot at the site of the car bombing during their wedding on Sunday.

Ali Alaeddine and Fatima Ajrouch showed up in a yellow convertible with the license plate \u201cjust married.” In an interview with ” target=”_new”>LBCI news<\/a>, the groom, Alaeddine, explained: “We’ve come here to prove to the world that our happiness and our sadness are one, and to show people that life is just fine and Lebanon and our Resistance are fine too.” Fatima adds, “We don’t fear anyone.”

“If they manage to set off 1,000 bombs, we still won’t feel afraid,” Alaeddine concludes.

In the news video, the crowd behind the newlyweds can be heard chanting: \u201cLabbayka ya Nasrallah\u201d meaning, \u201cWe’ve got your back Nasrallah.\u201d Mabrouk for the happy couple… although I still can’t decide whether this is cool or creepy.
