Think of it like the Mexican cartels...

Agree: Hezbollah was hated by most people in Lebanon.

Now, Lebanon has a convenient way to identify these terrorist thugs, plus video recordings of many of their faces.

Hope Lebanon finishes off the surviving terrorists.

It's an incredible day for the world.
With today's strike, Hezbollah's leadership has been crippled and deconstructed, with the earlier in the week "Grim Beeper" events, Hezbollah's operations apparatus has been neutralized.
The swiftness of it is what's shocking as this type of operation could have feasibly taken months to years with so many more dying. It's truly astonishing and an immense achievement for the anti-terror campaign across the world.

The world is a better place, and thanks goes to whoever was responsible.

You can thank Mossad and the IDF.

Aqil was directly responsible for killing US Marines, CIA officers and State Dept diplomats.
Good riddance.

Does that mean the US owes Israel $7 million?

Let’s all be clear:

Fighting in Gaza is significantly down and has been for months.

The front has shifted to Lebanon.

So now the left wing can focus its love on Hezbollah rather than Hamas.

At least the surviving terrorists won’t likely be able to reproduce.

Yes. This is fabulous news. Israel has had the courage to do what needed to be done.
I hope they keep killing the terrorists.

Not so fast. Netanyahu and Trump need to keep the chaos going through Election Day. If Gaza is running out of steam and moving towards a cease fire, then it’s time to attack Hezbollah. That keeps Netanyahu in place as PM over a war cabinet, and lets Trump scream at Biden and Harris for causing war in the Middle East and betraying Israel.

Smart.

Huh? Trump had nothing to do with Israel striking Hezbollah.

Honestly, where is your heart? These are living, breathing humans living in communities with other living breathing humans when their pagers (and who other than militants own pagers - doctors!). Please try to understand this action didn’t just harm “terrorists” but actual people. I have a dear friend who is Lebanese-American. She lived through the Lebanese civil war. She and her husband planned and saved to come to the Us to raise their family away from war and is devastated that her new country (where she works and pays taxes) is sending military aid to Israel to enable it to kill others.

Btw, I am of Jewish descent and NOT a Hamas or Hezbollah supporter. I am also wary of all religious fundamentalism. But not all Arabs, not all Muslims are “terrorists” or “animals” or whatever dehumanizing label people want to use to justify their own acts of atrocities.

Why didn’t Israel blow up Khaled Meshaals phone years ago?

They let Hamas luxuriate in the Doha hotels and that’s how 10/7 was able to happen. Israel has hard questions to ask itself before it celebrates too soon.
The train has left the station with Hamas and now they can’t reel them in.

Netanyahu planned this to be a small victory
For a demoralized Israeli public after the recent hostage murders. It’s all political theater for points which is nice but again, why didn’t they assassinate Hamas sooner?

America has no idea who Hezbollah is. The President is at the beach eating ice cream so if you want to call
That celebrating, ok.
