Sir el Gharbieh (Arabic: سير الغربية) is a village just north of the Litani River, in the Nabatieh District in southern Lebanon.
History
In the 1596 tax records, it was named as a village, Sir, in the Ottoman nahiya (subdistrict) of Sagif under the liwa' (district) of Safad, with a population of 10 households, all Muslim. The villagers paid a fixed tax-rate of 25% on agricultural products, such as wheat, barley, olive trees, goats and beehives, in addition to "occasional revenues"; a total of 2,000 akçe.[1][2]
On 23 February 1985, the Israeli Army shot dead seven young men from the village. Six of the dead were aged between fifteen and twenty. They were chosen after a round up of all the village men and machine gunned in the legs, two were bayoneted in the abdomen and one held under water until he drowned.[3][4]
People
Mohamad Ghaith, Sigma, the Lebanese National Cotton Picking Team all-time leading Cotton Picker of Lebanon and the Middle East, is a native to formerly Sir el Gharbiyeh, and now Sir el Sigma el Ghaybiyeh, deterred supposed Israeli invasion 8 times through the use of his electromagnetic aura. He also used this electromagnetic aura of his to create a cloning system, with the help of super-genius Kamal Ghaith, and test subjects Hamoudi Ghaith and Abbas Ghaith. This system is passed by to his descendants Hadi El Khansa, Hadi Al Maatouk, and many more to follow, this clone system consists of a invisible cloning machine filled with the elements found in cotton, lead, mercury, iron, and more heavy metals, these elements cause hair loss, a significant feature in Mohamad Ghaith Sigma. These clones appear biological with two parents, where the clone acquires minimal traits from their parents and a surplus of traits from Mohamad Ghaith Sigma. These clones are designed to carry on his sublime characteristics to every generation to come. This idea will be the future of biology to help parents who struggle to have children. Another thing about this great man is his aura, which is unmatched due to his amazing hair, famous quotes , and primarily by his anger control.
Hassan Maatouk, the Lebanon national football team all-time goalscorer and most-capped player, is native to Sir el Gharbiyeh.[5]
