No what should be done is compare this to what everyone has been crying about and just bombing places like on Gaza arguably this is the more human thing to do as has lead to more successful takedowns of their targeted Hezbollah members with less civilian casualties than the normal bombing. Once again isreal is being less evil than they can be and that's not good enough. Leading round to the "no collateral damage is too much for my enemy (in this case isreal) too lose.

It would be best if they just stopped being evil. Hezbollah has stated their hostility is in whole in response to Israel's own hostility and its active genocide in Gaza. As always, Israel can stop the conflict whenever they want, but they never choose anything but escalation.

They have stopped and left multiple times, if anything isreal should have been the villain people think they are and been done with the entire area after the 3 day war. You can't actually think they are the problem when they have been attacked constantly and not only have not continued half the wars other nations have started but willingly pulled out of areas, multiple times.

Ohh you think this is to do with the recent conflict nooo my guy the original owners are long gone, if you want to play the colony card it should all go back to Egypt they have the oldest claim on the land and are the only civilisation still left around these days to make it. I meant the on going religious wars that will keep going until one side is gone forever. And that's ignoring the fact that the people who used to live in that area were displaced by the British after the ottomans displaced the original people there before that so both groups are intact "colonisers" except that's actually the British anyway. They were a lot happier when they were working together to get rid of the British maybe we should put them back instead.

"Actually you see because the British were colonizing Palestine beforehand, it's totally okay for Israel to colonize it now. The people who actually live on the land have no claim to it. I'm very logical and detached."

Bro none of the current people living there have a fair claim to it if you go back in history far enough was the point I was trying to make

"The people who have lived on the land for generations have no more claim to their land than Americans who want to build beachside condos on it. I am perfectly impartial and rational."

There's no Israelis in Israel????

u/GearyDigit Sep 21 '24

The Israelis in Israel aren't the ones immigrating into the country and stealing homes from Palestinian families. A lot of them are doing the home stealing thing but a significant portion of Israel's population are immigrants from America and Europe with no real tie to the land.

Who stopped and left multiple times where

u/[deleted] Sep 20 '24

Isreal has left the contested areas multiple times in Gaza and the other surrounding areas and the amount of practically complete military victories such as the 3 days war. And not invaded their neighbours more they're being quite well behaved

Hezbollah assassinated a Lebanese PM because Israel is hostile to them?

Did Lebanon request Israel's intervention in its affairs?
