Remember a week or so ago when an Israeli official was calling into question the legitimate borders for countries like Lebanon? That wasn’t a coincidence. These people are laying the groundwork to roll in and take over more land for their little colony.
“Limited operation.”
“Well they have to stay to prevent threats from reconstituting.”
“The settlers are just unfortunate extremists.”
“Today, I recognize the Litani as sovereign Israeli territory…”
“Learn your lesson: if you attack Israel it will get bigger. FAFO.”
“Lebanon is attacking innocent defenseless Jews in Israel’s Litani region! What revanchism! They’re stuck in the past! We must prevent the Holocaust!”
“Limited operation.”
Same playbook as always for Israel. They’ve done this in the past with Lebanon, with Golan Heights, with Gaza, and now again in Lebanon
Maybe they’re eyeing potential spoils of war? These military operations will need sources of financing.
But, realistically, they’re probably planing the formation of an exclusion zone to avoid Hezbollah installing missile launchers so close to Israel’s borders.
Spoils of war? On a war that they started? To pay for the military operations of exterminating Palestinians? Is that honestly how you justify this?
Hezbollah has been sending missiles to Israeli territory for almost a year. So they started this war, but Israel has been very lenient by not starting a full-scale war until now. The patience has run out. Like they used to say: fuck around and find out.
Hezbollah has been firing missiles because they made it clear that they are retaliating over Israel’s treatment of the Palestinian civilian population during their war with Hamas. Israel has not been lenient or patient in any way, shape, or form. They’ve been escalating these attacks with little to no justification. It’s abundantly clear now they want to reoccupy the south of Lebanon for their own benefit and they are using this as a pretext.
Hezbollah can throw any excuse they want, but the reality is that they attacked first. They should have known the limits of their military strength and shown restraint against a much more powerful nation. Too bad they were lacking in common sense. Now all their top leaders are eliminated, half their missile launchers are destroyed, and if a ground incursion by Israel occurs, they’re basically finished.
And if Israel ends up occupying the south of Lebanon, it won’t be the first time they’ve done so. In the year 2000, they voluntarily withdrew from the south of Lebanon after defeating Hezbollah, in the hopes that they’d stop attacking Israeli territory. Looks like being the nice guy with a terrorist group that’s determined to destroy them at any cost is not a very good idea.
Calling standing up for your neighbors as they get massacred and ethnically cleansed in a war that has already claimed over 41,000 civilians lives, 14,000 of them infants aged less than a year old, is not an excuse. It’s a valid reason. The fact that you would call it an “excuse” goes to show how cruel and inconsiderate you are.
In the year 2000, they voluntarily withdrew from the south of Lebanon
It was not voluntary. They withdrew because Hezbollah spent years harassing them and inflicting losses until they left. You’re welcome to read about it if you actually want to learn.
South Africa has been far more helpful to Palestine than any amount of missiles launched at civilians will ever be.
Lebanon has a right to defend itself.
Isn’t Lebanon a failed state? From my understanding the Lebanon government isn’t really in a position to defend anything.
That’s irrelevant.
Is this the new excuse? What USA would do if Lebanon ask Russia or Turkey to defend its border.
ISISreal on the march.
