The prospect of a full-scale war between Israel and Lebanon’s Hezbollah militia terrifies people on both sides of the border, but some see it as an inevitable fallout from Israel’s ongoing war against Hamas in Gaza.
Such a war could be the most destructive either side has ever experienced.
Israel and Hezbollah each have lessons from their last war, in 2006, a monthlong conflict that ended in a draw. They’ve also had four months to prepare for another war, even as the United States tries to prevent a widening of the conflict.
If Israel doesn’t want war, has it considered not starting one ?
Israel, the country that has been in a perpetual state of war for the last 70 years with its own people and neighbors suddenly wanting peace? I don’t see it. This has always been how netanyahu operates.
Right because all those wars totally weren’t Israel’s neighbors trying to exterminate them down to the last Jew, right?
Not really. If someone decided to build an ethnostate in your home and you weren’t invited, but millions of people from around the world were, to our wouldn’t try to resist? You wouldn’t fight back as they took your property?
Ever wonder why there are no Jews in Egypt? Or Iraq? Or Jordan? Or Syria? Or Yemen? Or Saudi Arabia?
There are no Jews in these countries because they were ethnically cleaned by the local Arab populations in the 1940s. They escaped to the only place that had a sizeable Jewish population, mandatory Palestine. And instead of accepting refugees with open arms, neighbor turned on neighbor and the local Arab population attempted to exterminate every Jewish man, woman, and child. Thankfully they did not succeed and their descendants now live in Gaza and the West Bank.
I recommend that you educate yourself on the history of the area before you speak with authority on the subject.
Thank you for changing topics and avoiding the main topic. Killing civilians is wrong. Hope you have a good day.
Will Israel’s neighbors go one decade/year/month/day without lobbing artillery onto civilians?
Shh, don’t burst their bubble. In their heads you are suppose to accept being terrorized and bombed and do nothing because anything you do is genocide and starting a war.
