    Schoolyard bully? Fighting back? Remind me who started firing rockets across the Israel-Lebanon border last October. Because it sure as shit wasn’t the IDF.

    Israel didn’t start the current conflict with Hezbollah and, apart from preemptively destroying their rockets and drones and taking out terrorists along the southern border, didn’t ‘escalate the conflict’. The beeper incedent most likely disabled quite a few of them.

    And another thing, do you really think a family living right under a big ass rocket don’t know it’s there?

      Remind me who is slaughtering innocent civilians wholesale and performing ethnic cleansing? And yes, Israel did start the current conflict, and they did escalate it. Hezbollah wouldn’t have been so inclined to intervene if Israel were fighting Hamas only. Genocide and ethnic cleansing of their neighbors is something they don’t seem to abide by, apparently.

      All you’re doing is trying to excuse the disgusting actions of a genocidal state headed by a madman who is so afraid of letting go of power he would rather plunge a whole region into war then let go. It’s pretty sad and pathetic.
