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.
next up, invade random countries… don’t mind me I’m just going through Hitler’s to-do list.
Doing a Blitzkreg to win some Lebensraum and no I don’t understand why this would be problematic.
The Südetenland is already waiting to be liberated and fulfill their genetic destiny!
These propaganda memes are getting more and more bizarre. This is the “Promised Land” meme that from I can tell originated from a faked photo of a patch on an Israeli soldier a few weeks ago.
Israel simply doesn’t have the capability to take that amount of territory, much less hold it. And see that blue on the Sinai peninsula? Israel actually controlled that in the past. They returned it to Egypt when they made peace in the 70s.
This is the silliest anti-Israel meme yet. Try harder next time.
While this meme/picture is definitely exaggerated, the expansion of Israel far beyond its current borders is a political position held by members of the current government. It originates from early Zionist militias that aspired to capture these widespread borders.
It even caused an international incident some time ago. https://www.timesofisrael.com/israel-seeks-to-calm-waters-with-jordan-after-racist-extremist-speech-by-smotrich/
Doesn’t Lebanon shoot rockets at Israel? Like pretty frequently?
Yeah, while Israel has been invading and violating Lebanon’s airspace for much longer than they’ve been shooting rockets.
So not really “invading random countries” like the person I responded to said, right? They’ve been fighting
Yeah Israel should have been sanctioned a long time ago for their airspace invasions. If they proceed with a land invasion, they should be embargoed by the world.
By your logic though, Taiwan should be launching rockets into China because China regularly violates their airspace. It’s just not how normal countries interact with each other man, these people are psychos. Both sides
I just said Israel should be sanctioned. I haven’t made one comment on whether the rockets were good or bad.
I asked hasn’t Lebanon been firing rockets at Israel for a while - you said Israel invades their airspace (implying that firing rockets into Israel was justified)
Yeah, by your own logic you can go one reply further and you’ll realize that you were trying to justify a land invasion of Lebanon.
Are people actually making excuses for Hezbollah?
Are people actually making excuses for Israel?
Are you serious? Hezbollah went in and gutted Lebanon of anything not of their version of “islamic” and think they are going to get sympathy. Why do you think so many people left Lebanon during the civil war (if you can even call it that)?
and Israel did even worse. Your point?
Israel is worse. Israel is the Jewish Isis.
Yikes.
Are people actually making excuses for Israel?
Yes.
You can’t really think of Lebanon as a country at this time. It’s a territory where several groups hold various amounts of power. Hzbollah is one of those groups. The “government”, or what passes for it is another.
Palestine isn’t a country. Lebanon isn’t a country. Excited to see Syria, Egypt, and Jordan suffer the same fate.
Palestine isn’t a country. It was offered statehood and turned it down. Lebanon is very much a country.
More countries recognize Palestine as an independent state than Taiwan.
It wasn’t offered statehood. It was offered a shell of bureaucracy under the boot of an occupying Israeli military.
Under the boot of an occupying Israeli military. You mean the one who had to build the iron dome becusse Arab states want/wanted to bomb it back to the stoneage?
Good for these countries recognizing it’s statehood, doesn’t make it true.
This is what colonial rhetoric in the 21st century looks like.
The Nazi ideology is alive and rules in Tel Aviv. They just changed who the supreme race is.
