Benjamin Netanyahu has warned Lebanese people that they could face “destruction and suffering” like the Palestinians in Gaza if they don’t “free” the country from Hezbollah.
“You have an opportunity to save Lebanon before it falls into the abyss of a long war that will lead to destruction and suffering like we see in Gaza,” the Israeli prime minister said in a video address directed to the people of Lebanon.
“I say to you, the people of Lebanon: Free your country from Hezbollah so that this war can end.”
If they meant “far right citizens of Israel that agree with their government’s genocide” then, yeah, they are.
Saying that group has nothing to do with Bibi seems an awful lot like saying trump had nothing to do with 1/6.
Can you help me understand how its different?
Sure. First, is that an advertisement for property? No, it isn’t. The statement that it’s advertising property is false. It’s political propaganda designed to look like an advertisement.
The state of Israel and political groups within that state are different entities. When the Proud Boys release some vile statement, I’m sure someone, somewhere is like “OMG look what the US is doing!” But the Proud Boys and the US state are different entities, even if the Proud Boys reside within the US state. Even if there are US officials whose values align closely with those chuds.
The comment I replied to was wrong about both who was speaking and what they were saying.
Is there some way that ‘The state of Israel is advertising property for sale in Lebanon’ is a true statement?
Oh wow…
I really didn’t think you’d just outright say you think trump is innocent in regards to his supporters attempting a coup
But that still doesn’t change that you made one assumption about what “they” meant. And ignored the other possibilities.
