"What alternative does Israel have when more than 8000 rockets have been fired by Hezbollah into Israel since October 7." @gingergranand @StupidFarang
Please tell me from where you get this figure of 8000 Hezbollah rockets being launched in the last year. It's on a single BBC site, but that was probably taken from Danny Danon speaking at the UN, when he mentioned 8000, without stipulating whence they came. Remember Hamas have been firing barrages for the past 11 months. For most of this year, there were, on a number of occasions, reports from Northern Israel describing tit for tat and carefully measured and LIMITED exchanges between Israeli artillery posts and Hezbollah positions. A few rockets were initially targeted at Kibbutzim in the early stages of the conflict forcing evacuation from northern Israel, but since then it's been measured. So, source for the 8000 from Hezbollah please.
I would have imagined that had Israel been subject to such an onslaught it would have got reporters to the targets and our screens would have been full. With the exception of the Druze children, I have seen little, but I'm prepared to be corrected. Thank you.
