Yes, war sucks.


Hezbollah has said multiple times they will stop the rocket attacks if there is a ceasefire in Gaza.

Israel has killed over 150 civilians in Lebanon in the past 11 months. That is civilians, not Hezbollah.

That number includes a journalist for Reuters, paramedics, and many children.

I don't think the life of an Israeli kid is worth more than a Druze kid or a Lebanese kid or a Palestinian kid.

The best way to stop the Lebanon and Israel war is to get a ceasefire in Gaza. Which Netanyahu and his cronies don't want.

Let's at least be honest about recent history--the first rocket attack from Hezbollah after October 7th came on October 8th. Israel hadn't even finished assessing the damage from the day before, let alone begun their movement into Gaza at that point. So while I absolutely support a ceasefire, I also will not give Hezbollah some kind of pass for being anything other than a terrorist organization that saw October 7th as the excuse they needed to attack Israel as soon and as often as they could.


Ah yes, history started on October 7th, please ignore every Israel attack against Lebanon (and the West bank, and Syria, and Iran) before then.


Let's also ignore 1947-48, when Arabs and Palestinians launched a war to annihilate Israel on the very day it was created.

That act of violence is the original sin that has given rise to everything since.

Competes with Hitler's invasion of Russia for the most idiotic move of the 20th century.


Let's go back to July 22, 1946 when the terrorist Zionists bombed the King David hotel - pretending to be Arabs in hopes that the British Military would vacate... Then let us ask ourselves what other atrocities and lies we may have missed...

We could even go back further into the early 1900s when Jews moved to Palestinian lands often times taking their land and houses by force. You know, because God said they could. Since He “chose” them over everyone else.

Agree. Children were killed. Random people were affected. In markets, streets, etc. But once again, the US shows that only Jewish/Israeli lives matter in that part of the world. And when they strike back everyone cries “but why do they hate us?!”

Maybe if you stopped blindly supporting a murderous regime (Israel) they would stop hating us.


So when Hezbollah missiles killed Israeli children, Israel should have done nothing.

That’s your position right?

I'm the PP and I used the phrase "recent history" for a reason--the suggestion that Hezbollah's current bombing campaign is in response to Israel's current war in Gaza is simply untrue. Yes, there is history from before that. But that doesn't change the fact that Hezbollah is a terrorist organization that seized upon the chance to jump into the fray less than 24 hours after October 7th happened and not as a response to the campaign in Gaza that began weeks later.


Where are you getting that the campaign in Gaza did not start for weeks?

Israel started to bomb Gaza on October 7. By the end of that day, hundreds of Palestinians had been killed in Gaza by Israeli bombs.

That is a fact and you can look up news coverage of that day of the heavy bombing in Gaza.

Say what I want about Moses?

It’s a historical fact that the Kingdom of Judea was where Israel is. Has nothing to do with Moses.

The Romans conquered it and the Jews fought back over and over until finally most of them were kicked out and forced to live in exile.

Many Jews lived under brutal Roman and Arab rule. Read about the dhimmi — it was Arabs oppressing Jews all over the Middle East.

So then the Jews finally claim their native land and you tell them to GTFO.

Awesome!
Kill all of the Hezbollah terrorists!


Israel does not have the capability to Hezbollah. These are all civilians. It’s what the terrorists state of Israel does.


That’s a lie.

A Lebanese doctor who treated the casualties confirmed the vast majority were middle aged and young men (read: terrorists) and not women and children (who btw can still be terrorists…particularly if they are carrying a pager given to them by Hezbollah).

The interview was on npr this morning.

The Lebanese doctor went on to dismiss other rumors, confirming NO medical personnel (who tend to carry pagers) were injured.

In short: the bad guys were injured and maimed in certain ways to easily identify them.

#terroristsarethebadguys


This is the problem. The flippant label of “bad guy”. If one traces back the endless volley of harm between Israel and Palestinians there were legitimate grievances on both sides. Not recognizing this means peace in the region is doomed. If you really care about Israel and its people you need to change this attitude.


DP.

Hezbollah are clearly "bad guys":

-They are adherents of the radical Khomeini-inspired theology

-They've supported the regime in Syria, including via direct military participation

-They've organized multiple attacks against Americans (Beirut barracks, Khobar Towers, training anti-US militias during the Iraq war, etc., etc.)

They are clearly and openly enemies of the United States. No question that we should support anything that impairs their military capabilities, up to and including their destruction.


Hezbollah has very little interest in operating outside of the Middle East. There is no question they want the US out of the Middle East. And who wouldn't? Remember we came to meddle in their neighborhood. They didn't come to us.

Big difference.

Hezbollah is a terroist group.


Hezbollah is also a political party in Lebanon, a large and powerful one, and very much a part of the Lebanese social fabric.

I love how people act as though Palestinians had this unbroken historical record of being the people living in Israel, when the word “Palestine” was coined by the Romans to replace “Judah” when they conquered the Jewish kingdom that was there.

Muslims didn’t move to Israel until the 600s, when the Islamic Caliphate conquered the land. Jews were still there and had been living under Roman rule. Then they lived under Muslim rule.

But let me be clear: Jews have always been there. Always.

Jews have always lived in Israel. Always. Just under the rule of Romans, then the Islamic Caliphate, then the Ottomans … always living under someone else.

So then the Jews finally claim their native land and you tell them to GTFO.


Again, IDGAF about what happened 100 generations ago. The world is a completely different place now than it was then. We can not and should not make decisions about how to fix modern problems by focusing on ancient history...



Jews have always lived in Israel. Always. Just under the rule of Romans, then the Islamic Caliphate, then the Ottomans … always living under someone else.



Perhaps, they need to be under someone else. Otherwise, they seem to bomb everyone else to pieces. Maybe Iran should take over, so there can be peace in the region.

Hezbollah has been continually escalating for the past six months and it was getting dangerously close to Israel being pulled into a 2nd war or - at the very least - a sustained air campaign that would have catastrophic effects on Lebanese civilians.

This pager sabotage operation actually saved many thousands of civilian lives on both side of the border.

Further, it needs to be reiterated that Hezbollah just killed 12 Druze children playing soccer on a playground in northern Israel just last month with their rockets.

Yes, war sucks.


Hezbollah has said multiple times they will stop the rocket attacks if there is a ceasefire in Gaza.

Israel has killed over 150 civilians in Lebanon in the past 11 months. That is civilians, not Hezbollah.

That number includes a journalist for Reuters, paramedics, and many children.

I don't think the life of an Israeli kid is worth more than a Druze kid or a Lebanese kid or a Palestinian kid.

The best way to stop the Lebanon and Israel war is to get a ceasefire in Gaza. Which Netanyahu and his cronies don't want.

Let's at least be honest about recent history--the first rocket attack from Hezbollah after October 7th came on October 8th. Israel hadn't even finished assessing the damage from the day before, let alone begun their movement into Gaza at that point. So while I absolutely support a ceasefire, I also will not give Hezbollah some kind of pass for being anything other than a terrorist organization that saw October 7th as the excuse they needed to attack Israel as soon and as often as they could.


Ah yes, history started on October 7th, please ignore every Israel attack against Lebanon (and the West bank, and Syria, and Iran) before then.


Let's also ignore 1947-48, when Arabs and Palestinians launched a war to annihilate Israel on the very day it was created.

That act of violence is the original sin that has given rise to everything since.

Competes with Hitler's invasion of Russia for the most idiotic move of the 20th century.


Let's go back to July 22, 1946 when the terrorist Zionists bombed the King David hotel - pretending to be Arabs in hopes that the British Military would vacate... Then let us ask ourselves what other atrocities and lies we may have missed...

We could even go back further into the early 1900s when Jews moved to Palestinian lands often times taking their land and houses by force. You know, because God said they could. Since He “chose” them over everyone else.


It was never sovereign Palestinian land. There has never been a sovereign Palestine.


It was never sovereign Jewish land in the modern world order either you twat. Say what you want about Moses and what not, but if something happened before the Greeks defined modern Western philosophy, your argument will fall on deaf ears.


Say what I want about Moses?

It’s a historical fact that the Kingdom of Judea was where Israel is. Has nothing to do with Moses.

The Romans conquered it and the Jews fought back over and over until finally most of them were kicked out and forced to live in exile.

Many Jews lived under brutal Roman and Arab rule. Read about the dhimmi — it was Arabs oppressing Jews all over the Middle East.

Agree. Children were killed. Random people were affected. In markets, streets, etc. But once again, the US shows that only Jewish/Israeli lives matter in that part of the world. And when they strike back everyone cries “but why do they hate us?!”

Maybe if you stopped blindly supporting a murderous regime (Israel) they would stop hating us.


So when Hezbollah missiles killed Israeli children, Israel should have done nothing.

That’s your position right?


Syrian children.
