The Israeli military says its Northern Command has approved operational plans for war with Lebanon.

Israel is ready for an “all-out war” in Lebanon and has plans approved for an offensive targeting Hezbollah, officials have said.

Israel and Hezbollah have been engaged in border fighting since shortly after the start of the war on Gaza, following the October 7 attacks on Israel. The confrontation is increasingly expanding, with both sides saying they are ready to go to war.

More than 400 people have been killed in Lebanon, including journalists and paramedics, over the past eight months, with 25 deaths in Israel. At least 90,000 people have been displaced in Lebanon, and more than 60,000 have been forced from their homes in northern Israel.

            That’s literally Russia’s military strategy: conscript minorities and throw them as human waves into the meatgrinder in order to ethnically cleanse Russia while genociding Ukraine

              Kadyrov is literally Hamas

              Because he’s Chechyan presiding over a Chechnyan government? I’d think he was more comparable to MBS or Abdullah II, whom Israelis are openly courting.

        From the people they’re colonizing. That doesn’t count as defending themselves. I can’t say self-defense when I kill you after you try to punch me because I shot you multiple times.

        The down votes are from the Jews who get offended easily and are first to say you are antisemitic. Sometimes a “/s” is not enough.
