You hear posters say that the population of a country doesn't necessarily support the terrorist groups. They are not involved etc. Seems an incorrect statement.

Then you see a ceasefire between Hezbollah and Israel. Hundreds and hundreds of people retuning to homes waving Hezbollah flags claiming victory over Israel and victory for the resistance. They haven't suddenly decided to support terrorists, they did all along.

Israel were at war with Hamas. Hezbollah just after the hamas attack of October 7th launched missiles into Israel to support hamas. One terrorist organisation supporting another whilst the people support them.

Over a year later finally a ceasefire. So the people of Lebanon, a country not occupied support their terrorist organisation Hezbollah with their 'resistance'. They are cheering a victory. Really deluded people. How can there be peace whilst they support terrorists. Their own government don't appear to run the show there and until Israel hit the Hezbollah leadership were weak with Hezbollah doing what they want.

Makes me realise more why many support Israel against people that cheer on terrorists.

Many on these threads see Israel as 'bad' yet excuse the innocent people of Lebanon who clearly support hezbollah

Its the usual double standard. For some reason the people of Lebanon can't be expected to see wrong from right. And the opposite is expected of the people of Israel. And it matters because no peace process can happen if people aren't clear sighted enough to see that there are people on all sides that need to be deradicalised.

And this is the fundamental problem...there are too many extremists right now in both Gaza and Lebanon to even think about a 2 state solutions between "Palestine" and Israel. There needs to be de-radicalisation of the whole population of Gaza before a 2 state solution would work...that will take many years and can happen but it will not be a quick process.

There needs to be de-radicalisation of the whole population of Gaza before a 2 state solution would work
And when should this de-radicalisation start? After the killing, bombing, maiming, starving, displacement destruction, illegal settlements end or before?
Who should carry out the programmes? At the moment in other places they are undertaken by the UN. What age do they begin, birth? Because according to ministers in the Isreali government this is where the hate starts.
Oh and why Palestine in inverted commas?

@OctoberOctopus just to highlight I'm not derailing just responding to a post you agreed with yesterday

Don't think that's what people are arguing, people are annoyed that the people of Lebanon have been killed and homes destroyed. Should we punish people in this way for their views?

There are.

I quite agree, and an Israeli withdrawal from Gaza and the West Bank. And equal rights.
