    Why are you pretending that is some sort of gotcha?

    Diplomats communicating with their nation’s allies does not make them legitimate military targets.

        Hezbollah is not a terrorist organization according to the Lebanese and Iranian governments or the UN.

        The have 15 representatives in Lebanon’s parliament.

        Of course, terrorism is only what we say and when they do it, not when we do it!

        I demand to see Biden’s Israel pager!

          So you admit that Israel just carried out a terrorist attack in Lebanon? Or is bombing and killing citizens is terrorism when “they” do it, not when “we” do it?

            Yeah I was mocking the label “terrorist organization”. There is no question that the USA and Israel routinely carry out terrorist attacks and should be labeled a terrorist regime. They’ve had decades to create peace and more moderate culture but they want this constant state of precariousness.
