Astounded at the fact that the radical, extremist Zionists make those posters you just slandered look like scholars in comparison. The gig is up, critical mass has been reached in seeing through Israeli propaganda and it’s only going to grow, grow, grow. Enjoy the sunset!

Sounds like you are cognitively impaired and can’t digest that Jews, once persecuted, have become war criminals in Israel killing tens of thousands of innocent civilians in the Middle East. Every “victory” that Israel now boasts about likely will turn out to be a pyrrhic one.

Respect to them, but I don’t want American boys on the line for this/ Israel is spoiling for a war with Iran.



There won't be a genuine war between Israel and Iran. They are not neighboring countries. And neither is marching armies across Syria, Jordan and Iraq. Israel has the obvious advantage in projecting air power. But they are much more interested in destroying Iran's proxy armies in the region - Hamas and Hezbollah. They have their plate full. Iran, particularly the new president, has no interest in a genuine regional war. The regime is too weak politically to engage in a real war. It will merely be noisy for a while longer, but there will not be genuine military conflict between Israel and Iran.

The only wild card is if Iran decides to cross the line and go full nuclear. That changes the dynamics in the region. Israel, Saudi Arabia, and the Gulf States may attack Iran very quickly if they choose to cross that threshold. But I don't think Iran wants that war.

In the meantime, Israel's success in destroying the leadership of Hezbollah is quite likely to lead to a quicker resolution of the conflicts in Lebanon and Gaza. Iran is significantly weakened. Their influence over Lebanon has been seriously degraded. Hamas too is weak and hiding in tunnels and among women and children. Once Sinwar is dead, Palestinians can choose how they want to proceed. But Iran won't be much of a player in Gaza anymore, so Palestinians are on their own. They have no other regional support.


Which Hamas decimated, Palestine will immediately collapse into civil war, as always happens when a government is smashed.

This. Jews have suffered. They are now imposing suffering. It won’t turnout well. So sad.

The current issue is not about Israel's right of existence, it's about the right of Palestinians and Lebanese people to live.

On 10/8 Israel could have chosen to fortify its defenses while examining the root of why Hamas held so much anger, working cooperatively with its neighbors to develop a plan for long term peace.

Instead, Israel chose the path of vengeance and war. Maybe that makes Israelis feel better, but I think it created - and is still creating - much more hatred.

Hatred will lead to more terrorism both in Israel as well as in the US.


Nasrallah was the Shiite equivalent of Bin Laden, who was widely liquidated on the order of President Obama.

Israel has done the world a tremendous service in taking out Nasrallah; thanks goes to them.

Everyone everywhere should be celebrating this wonderful news and handing out sweets.


Calling Nasrallah a terrorist is like calling David Duke a terrorist. He’s a terrorist in name only but he never left his basement. He just made videos saying Israel needs to be destroyed but he didn’t actually kill anybody himself nor was Hezbollah a major threat to Israel whatsoever. Israel’s just afraid of their ground game because Hezbollah beat ISIS. They want to defeat them via far away tactics like beeper explosions because last year Israel got ran off the field in 48 hours when they entered Lebanon. Israel funded ISIS over and over again and they kept coming back intermittently in Syria and each time Hezbollah among others like Russia, Syrian army, and under Trump even the U.S. beat them.

Israel won’t admit they funded ISIS against the US and the Us and Hezbollah and Russia were fighting on the same side back during the Trump administration. Curiously, once the Israeli proxy was subdued, the Syrian war ended and people were able to re migrate back from Europe and the Us back to Syria. What a surprise


This response is full of dangerous misinformation and distortions. Comparing Nasrallah, the leader of Hezbollah, to David Duke is a false equivalence. While David Duke is a white supremacist with abhorrent views, Nasrallah is the leader of a group that has actively engaged in violent conflict, responsible for the deaths of many civilians through terrorist activities. Hezbollah has been involved in numerous attacks against Israeli civilians and military personnel, including rocket strikes, suicide bombings, and kidnappings. This is why Hezbollah is classified as a terrorist organization by not just Israel but also the U.S., the European Union, and many other countries.

The claim that Israel funded ISIS is an outright lie. There is no credible evidence to support this conspiracy theory. On the contrary, Israel has consistently fought against ISIS and other extremist groups in the region. The war in Syria was complex, involving multiple actors with shifting alliances, but the idea that Israel was aligned with ISIS is pure fabrication.

Hezbollah is indeed a significant threat to Israel, as evidenced by their involvement in multiple wars, including the 2006 Lebanon War, where Hezbollah’s rocket attacks terrorized northern Israel. Hezbollah is also backed by Iran and has a military arsenal far beyond what a simple "ground game" would suggest.

Accusing Israel of funding ISIS or claiming that Hezbollah was simply fighting ISIS alongside the U.S. during Trump’s administration is a twisting of history. Hezbollah’s involvement in Syria was largely to support the Assad regime, and while there was temporary overlap in fighting ISIS, Hezbollah’s long-term goals have always been aligned with Iran's strategy of regional dominance, which includes threats against Israel.

It’s important to base opinions on factual evidence, not anti-Semitic conspiracy theories. The truth is, both Hezbollah and ISIS are dangerous organizations, and Israel’s defense against these threats is rooted in protecting its people from real and persistent terrorist attacks.

I accept that our current foreign policy is such that we will continue to support Israel.

All I want is no American boots on the ground. Other than that I do not care. We've been trying to solve this unsolvable problem for 50+ years. Let's start tapering off monetary and military support and let the chips fall where they may.

America should not underwrite one more Israeli killing in the Middle East. Let the Jews solve their own problems. They take and take and take from America yet do what they want and only what they want. They aren’t an ally so much as a parasite.

Oh, FFS, is there actually a radical, extremist Zionist AI service now???

Israel is a crappy ethnic-state mostly full of fascists, with significant minorities of Orthodox Jews who don’t believe in any state and left-wingers who serve the useful purpose of protesting against the government’s policies, so the government can then claim Israel is a democracy. But the protests are ineffective, and the protesters, for the most part, only want other Jews to have the right to protest against the government’s policies. If the same criticisms are voiced by others, they are also quick to trot out allegations of anti-Semitism. So it becomes self-serving cosplay, rather than a path to real change.

Given how many innocent civilians Israel has killed, and how vocally many Israelis not only support but relish in those murders, it’s become a pariah state that deserves to be wiped off the map. Zionism has proven to be a botched experiment that should be consigned to the dustbins of history.

I'm a little confused by this article. The government of Bahrain and Iran are NOT aligned. Why would Hezbollah have intervened against the street protestors in Bahrain during their "pearl revolution". I have no doubt that many arabs condemn Hezbollah but some facts in this article seem off.

Not giving it up, but rather allowing Israel and remnants of Hezbollah foot soldiers to duke it out. I guarantee that Lebanese and Israel militaries are in direct contact and coordinating. Lebanese military will fall back to fortify Christian and Sunni strongholds from Hezbollah (i.e., Shiite) reprisals.

Look at the map - the blue area is dominated by Hezbollah and the source of attacks on Israel.

Useful reminder that Hamas can lay down its arms and Hezbollah can stop its rocket attacks. Those entities started these conflicts.
