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.”
They always claim Hezbollah is terrorist, but surely the IDF have a larger civilian kill count and a larger percentage of civilians killed.
Israel feeling pretty confident there is zero consequences to their actions now.
This is what I don’t get… Hezbollah has seats in Lebanon’s parliament. How is it any different than Likud? Aside from the whole, “not being actively genocidal” thing. Should we compare civilian casualties between the two groups?
Why are we only cool with democracy (and “spreading” it) when they vote for the people we like?
Likud doesn’t maintain a separate army under their own flag.
The only sane comment in this entire post.
