@rima_majed And the gold & money claimed by Israel as usual was proved false & just another pretext for killing innocent civilians & attacking hospitals as part of its genocide tactics. Known by & supported by Western politicians being bribed by pro-Israel lobbyists. #CeasefireNOW

BREAKING: 🇮🇱🇱🇧 Israel has released a video threatening Lebanon and its citizens Israel has released a warning video to Lebanese citizens, threatening to destroy Lebanon and Lebanese cities, as well as to commit genocide and massacre like in Gaza because of Hezbollah. Israel plans to use the same rhetoric from Gaza, that Hamas uses civilians and children as human shields. Here again, Israel will claim that Hezbollah uses the people of Lebanon as human shields. Unfortunately for them, Hezbollah is not Hamas and can retaliate in kind.

This needs to be said loud and clear. Israel is not attacking Lebanon. They are targeting Hezbollah. An Iranian funded terror proxy that has struck Israel 2,000 times since the April ceasefire. Israel has every right to defend itself. Don’t fall for the Iranian regime’s distraction.

"Either we proclaim that Palestinian civilians are lesser civilians, lesser human beings, not entitled to the same protection, or we proclaim that the rules do not apply to Israel, and accept that Palestine becomes the ground zero for the death of international law-based order. A resolute action is needed to end the impunity and the crimes it enables, to save Palestinians, but also save the prospect of freedom, justice and peace for all in our region and beyond."

Israel is in Lebanon for one reason: Hezbollah keeps using Lebanese territory to fire rockets at Israeli civilians, and no serious country would sit back and allow that to continue. Lebanon should never allow terrorists to turn its land into a launchpad for attacks on another nation. I think Israel is right on this. When terrorists strike from across your border, you have every right to defend your people and push the threat back.

American-Israeli attorney Mark Zell argues that one overlooked aspect of the Iran memorandum of understanding is that Israel was never a party to it. His view: that leaves Israel free to respond if Hezbollah escalates attacks from Lebanon. Israeli officials have repeatedly warned that continued attacks from Hezbollah will be met with force, and Marc Zell - מארק צל believes the current arrangement does not limit Israel's ability to defend itself.

The path is clear: Hizballah stops attacking Israel. The Lebanese Armed Forces and the legitimate Government of Lebanon assert control over Lebanese territory. And Iran stops using Lebanon as a forward operating base. And the Lebanese people, who have suffered for far too long, finally get a chance to rebuild a country that belongs to them—not Hizballah, not its thug leadership, and certainly not to Tehran.

Told i24NEWS English: 1. By demanding ceasefire for Lebanon, Iran has proven that Hezbollah started war to serve Iranian, not Lebanese, agenda. 2. Hezbollah looks desperate for a ceasefire. 3. Israel's problem of armed militias in Lebanon predates the creation of the Islamic Republic in Iran and goes back to 1969. Iran has latched on Hezbollah to serve its own interest by blackmailing Israel and the West, but nothing Lebanese about that. 4. The Lebanese government has been saying all the right things and approving all the right resolutions, but we can't tell whether the state is unwilling or unable to disband Hezbollah. At the end of the day, the final mile to finish off Hezbollah cannot be done except by the Lebanese themselves.

After some massive attacks on Gaza by Israel, this is some of what remains. Israel has every right to protect their territory against terrorists. No one likes war, and I'm no supporter of PM Netanyahu, but this is Israel's right, and I'm glad that most of the international community is standing behind them.

Iran's demands for Israel to also end attacks on Lebanon and Gaza are not solely because of Tehran's desire to show solidarity with the peoples there, but also because it recognizes that if Israel continues to bombard Gaza and Lebanon, that conflict risks expanding to Iran again - as it already has twice since October 7. To ensure a durable end to Israel's war with Iran, Israel's war on Gaza and Lebanon must also end.
