There was no hint of de-escalation as Israeli warplanes bombed a residential area of Beirut on Friday, killing at least 31 people, including multiple Hezbollah commanders, and wounding at least dozens of others. Lebanon’s Ministry of Health said that the dead include three women and seven children.
During a Saturday television interview, Israeli Minister of Education Yoav Kisch falsely proclaimed that “there is no difference between Hezbollah and Lebanon.”
“The way things are progressing at the moment, Lebanon will be annihilated,” he vowed. Pressed on the genocidal implications of the word “annihilated,” Kisch said, “Lebanon as we know it will not exist.”
All that Israel will accomplish is a lifetime of angry people who want to cause harm to the state that did this to their families, terror attacks by hezbola and hamas will continue, get worse and all but ensure a right wing autocracy who say, and will somehow be believed to be the only ones who can keep israel safe™. Please give up your freedoms so that we can “protect you”.
Israel has had angry neighbors, who want to kill them since before the state even existed.
And vice versa, now israel is aided by the US, it no longer needs to commit acts of terrorism. Instead of building a taller wall, they should have built a longer table.
That’s why Israel’s goal is to kill their families too
That, plus settlements that they’ll start setting up in Lebanon as soon as they have the opportunity. Border’s gotta expand…
Yup, bibi knows about lebensraum, and wants to give it a go himself.
So what will change?
It’ll get worse.
