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.”

    He’s literally not doing what’s most popular. If he was we’d be reducing and/or conditioning military aid, the position supported by a majority of the population. What are you even talking about?

    Five in 10 Americans (53%) support placing restrictions on US military aid to Israel so that it cannot use that aid toward military operations against Palestinians.

    Wild that people can act condescending when just patently saying the wrong thing after being shown the exact data that proves them wrong.

      Your inability to make sense of polling data — again, these polls don’t even target LIKELY VOTERS — is why Trump and Netanyahu exist. Because opposition to these monsters is crippled by hysterical people who cause nothing but infighting and chaos.
