Hezbollah attacked Israel on the 8th of October and supported Hamas attacking and kidnapping civilians on the 7th October.
Iran is actively supporting conflicts in the Middle East, Europe and Africa. So either we start talking about the religious fanatics or we just accept the USA as the world police and we should just do as they tell us to do.
I’d personally prefer the former…
Thank you for this comprehensive account of all the events that have led to the current situation and for presenting us with the only two options available.
I could write my comment since I live in a democracy with freedom of speech… something I would not be able to do if I lived in Gaza because of Hamas.
What you fail to understand is that Israel is a foreign colonial force and therefore has no right to self defense or to even exist. The only religious fanatics are the Zionist invaders who are trying to fulfill Iron Age mythologies about a Promised Land.
“The only religious fanatics are the Zionist…”
Yeah, I’m pretty sure millions of women in Iran beg to differ.
Us arms and aid won’t save the idf from hizbollah
If we’re talking about just arms vs. arms, Hezbollah is far weaker. They probably have the ability to draw Israel into a lengthy guerilla war a la Afghanistan, which will eventually make Israel admit the whole thing is pointless, but that also would mean that Iran doesn’t decide to join in the fight. I still think Israel would have the stronger military in that case, but the bigger issue there would be that out of those three groups, only Israel has nukes and they aren’t concerned about the spread of fallout if they lob one at Tehran like they would be in Gaza.
Israel lost to Hezbollah twice before and they were nowhere near as strong now.
Lost in what way? In that Hezbollah still exists? Because see above re guerilla war.
Lost twice: 2000 and 2006. You may want to read some history.
Let’s just say we went from the Zionist settlers having a security buffer inside Lebanon, to Hezbollah having a security buffer inside Occupied Palestine.
Anyways, I don’t care to convince you. You will see it soon enough.
