    from getting steamrolled by a government as ruthless and callous as Israel

    It’s right there in my comment.

      Yeah, how exactly is firing potshots across the border and getting Lebanon into a war it doesn’t want protecting anyone from getting steamrolled?

        Israel is the one escalating the war and invading Lebanon. Not the other way around.

              You really didn’t. Let’s try again: what has Hezbollah actually done that has protected anyone from Israel? They can’t even protect themselves from their pagers.

                You’re welcome to go over and read the history of Hezbollah, how and why they were formed, and what would have happened had they not existed if you so earnestly want to know what they have done to protect Lebanon from Israel. You’re also welcome to look up why they have decided to take “potshots” with their genocidal neighbors and how that whole debacle started.

                    If you’re well aware of the history then the answer to “Why do Lebanese citizens who hate Hezhollah are suddenly publicly supporting them as a foreign military they hate even more attacks their homes” isn’t a question you need me to answer for you.
