Are you aware that all the communities and towns on the northern border in Israel have been evacuated from civillian populations due to missile attacks and fear of a Hamas style raid?
Soldiers are dying from Hezbollah firing missiles across the border.
Israel is bombing the Hezbollah supply lines.
The LAST thing Israel wants right now is another front opening up.
Iran, the puppet master, is however more than happy to fight until the last Arab.
And whatever the complex history between Palestinians and Israelis, Israel does not occupy any Lebanese lands, there is no dispute to fight over. This is Hezbollah spoiling for a fight (they give not a shit about Palestinians, they murdered ebough of them in Syria to show that) driven by Iran, their paymaster.

Israel in this case has reponded to Hezbollah rocket fire, which seems reasonable enough.

Please stop using the word ‘Jews’ in your posts.

I am a Christian Palestinian. Not once have I used the word Jews in my posts.

I am opposed to the Zionist Ideology and the criminal acts of the Israeli government, that is ethnically cleansing the remaining Arab (Christians and Muslim) populations in the West Bank and Gaza.

That doesn't explain why you failed to mention Hezbollah fired rockets at Israel first 🙄

TheWayTheLightFalls · 22/10/2023 14:27

Fabulous. Could you address the substance of my post please, which was that what you are reporting is actually Israel returning fire? Because your OP - “Israel now bombing Lebanon and Syria too” rather leaves out that Hezbollah has been firing rockets here, which Israel is now retaliating against.

Many of those people will be displaced Palestinians who were forced to leave their homeland. So they’re already involved.

What does that have to do with them being bombed? The problems with other governments doesn’t give Israel a green light to behave however it wants.

Here is about as biased a source as I could find, and even they’re confirming that Hezbollah was firing into Israel from Lebanon -

https://www.iranintl.com/en/202310199356

Incredibly, yes, if rockets are fired into Israel Israel will return fire. Haven’t we established that point yet? Or was this a “OMG those bloody Jews again” type of post, neglecting to mention that Hezbollah attacked first?

But they won't let them integrate fully. Why is that?

being anti-Semitic and anti-Zionist ARE NOT THE SAME THING.

Many Jewish people are anti-Zionist.

That poster often cries anti semitism on any thread that is critical of Israel, and reports them to get them removed. When asked to explain the anti semitism, they never respond.

Maybe they shouldn't have got involved ? Just a thought.

I see this question a lot, what should they expect? Not white phosphorus, starvation, bombing hospitals. Anyone asking that question is justifying war crimes.

BeggyMitchell · 22/10/2023 14:13

Lebanon were firing rockets in solidarity with the atrocities of Oct 7th.

Wtf do they expect?

Israeli does not equal Jewish. Israel is a democracy not a theocracy. As a democratic government they should make decisions based on democratic principles not religion. 25% of Israel population are not Jewish. One of the biggest issues here is people view this as Jews versus Muslims. It is a democratic government versus Hamas, a militant group that does not represent all Palestinians.

Hmm didn't Lebanon and Syria fire rockets first 🧐

In which case retaliation is justified

Shhhh, you aren't allowed to point out the facts abit like the outcry from Israel retaliating against Hamas.... did you not get the memo it's all Israels fault.

Lebanon started firing rockets quite a few days ago, was actually shocked it wasn't mentioned anywhere other then Israel having to evacuate that area.

Please do explain what was anti Semitic about OP’s post rather than throwing that accusation around as you constantly are.

I presume the thread starter meant to write "Lebanon and Syria now boming Israel too... cruel acts"

"Rockets fired from southern Lebanon towards Israel as Gaza is bombed" - https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/10/10/rockets-fired-from-southern-lebanon-towards-israel-as-gaza-is-bombed

Must have been a slip of the pen getting the names the wrong way round.

Victory to Israel, the only good democracy in the Middle East

Exactly . I hope this thread gets taken down .

Do you approve of the war crimes this good democracy is committing?

Even without the bombing, which is relentless and is killing thousands of civilians, are you cool with cutting off food, water and humanitarian aid? What's good about that?

Rosethorne66 · 22/10/2023 13:46

I think you'll find the majority of Israel posts herr have been pro israeli and anti Palestinian. Not surprising though.

And then you get inflammatory posts like the one from the OP. Rockets were fired from Lebanon so of course Israel will respond but that doesn't suit the OP's narrative.

TeacupKitty · 22/10/2023 13:56

Disgusting to call Israel a good democracy. Only if you’re Israeli. Otherwise it’s an apartheid state which leaves children without even burns dressings for the wounds they’ve inflicted on them.

MrsElijahMikaelson1 · 22/10/2023 13:56

😢😢😢 for all of those who have died or who have had family killed; on either side.

blacksax · 22/10/2023 13:39

I don't care who is bombing who, or why.

I just want the killing to stop.

Said nobody ever when it was the Arab nations bombing Israel.

Toothyfruity · 22/10/2023 13:54

According to that article 266 people including 117 children have been killed in Gaza in the last 24 hours.

This was my main takeaway. How utterly devastating.

TwilightSkies · 22/10/2023 13:49

If you don’t support the genocide of innocent Palestinians then you are anti-Semitic apparently.
Over a thousand children murdered by the IDF and counting. No water. No electricity. No food. No medication.
There is no justification for it.
