Hezbollah said the “first phase” of its strikes against Israel “ended with complete success,”claiming that it launched 320 rockets and a barrage of drones toward Israel.
Hezbollah said it carried out strikes towards Israel in response to the killing of top military commander Fu’ad Shukr last month in the southern suburbs of Beirut, a populous neighborhood that is also the Iran-backed group’s stronghold.
”pre-emptive" now means brutal and unnecessary violence designed to save the political career of a tyrant?
Even CNN felt the need to scare-quote the term in the headline and the article, since it’s obviously a lie.
How is it unnecessary?
Israel could stop killing civilians in Gaza and the tensions in the north would disappear overnight.
See? Unnecessary.
How is it not pre-emptive if Hezbollah was indeed setting up the ol’ rocket barrage?
How is it not pre-emptive if Hezbollah was indeed setting up the ol’ rocket barrage?
Psst. How was Israel ready to launch a surprise war of aggression unless it was already setting up weapons?
Remind me which countries get to arm weapons without alarming their neighbours and which don’t get to, again? I need to know which countries get secret violence advantages over the others.
Sure! If you can tell me a bit more on the ‘surprise war of aggression’ you’re referencing I’'ll be happy to comment
Deliberately antagonizing sovereign states. That’s awesome. We should give them more weapons. /s
Fuck zionists in their stupid asses.

Lebanon is barely sovereign as a huge chunk of their country is ruled by the terrorist Hezbollah militia.
Again, it seems some countries can be ruled by genocidal terrorists and it’s cool, but some can’t – can we get a list of which countries genocide’s cool in and which it’s not? It doesn’t appear that Hezbollah is anywhere on par with a genocidal land thief like Bibi.

Nope. I think all genocidal nutjobs cloaking themselves under a religion to hide their cruelty and menace are evil nutjobs.
That’s 👏 the 👏 fucking 👏 point 👏.
Catch up.
Unless you’re in Iran, you’re not giving them any weapons
say what now
Do you think these rockets were made in the industrial powerhouse that is Lebanon?
Lebanon is zionist?
Do you think it were zionists that fired these rockets?
Fuck zionists in their stupid asses.
this is the comment that we are replying to. are you lost?
Nah just a hasbara account trying to play off and make Israel look like the victim
Why did you cut out the rest of that comment?
Israel attacked Lebanon first by bombing civilian targets in Lebanon.
It’s amazing how that seems to be the only thing Israel is good at, these days; killing civilians.
Not true
A two front war now? Seems like a bold strategy let’s see how it pans out.
The more fronts they open the longer party can stay in power
C’mon sea people, do your thing again
Atlantis shall rise again!
Some of the sea peoples ended up settling in caanan and such, so it’s arguable that their descendants kinda are.
Hezbollah has been bombing Israel since Oct 8 in solidarity with Hamas. This is just the latest escalation.
Israel could stop the genocide then. They won’t but that would be better than bombing another country
Israel is using the American police defense of “I was scared so I had to kill them”.
