Israel at War - airstrikes in Lebanon

[EndtheMadnessNow]

Updates for Sept 24/25:








Iran Update, September 24, 2024:

Agreeing to a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip to stop Hezbollah fire into northern Israel would not satisfy Israel’s war objectives, nor would it discourage similar Hezbollah operations in the future. Hamas’ current ceasefire demands include a ceasefire, a full Israeli withdrawal from the Gaza Strip and the release of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners, among other stipulations.[4] Hamas has set these demands in an attempt to set conditions that would enable its reconstitution in the Gaza Strip.[5] Agreeing to Hamas’ ceasefire demands would be tantamount to an Israeli defeat because Hamas’ current demands enable it to rebuild militarily and politically over time. Hamas could, if it retains access to supplies and is unbothered by Israeli military action, gradually regain some of the capabilities required to conduct future large-scale terrorist attacks into Israel. Agreeing to Hamas’ terms would also fail to ensure Israeli security over the long term because it would demonstrate to Nasrallah that Israel could be cowed and defeated by relatively inexpensive indirect fire targeting civilians in Israel. This would encourage Nasrallah to undertake similar campaigns again in the future.

Kinda surreal with that American McDonald's arch:

I'm not sure if the military troops here (middle image) are Hezbollah (Shia) or the regular Lebanon army (Sunnis). The Frenchy black berets are probably a big clue but I don't know as their military & militia political party factions are very confusing. Some members of the Sunni based army are Christians and Lebanese Druze people. At least in Lebanon the Druze are no longer considered Muslim. Figure that one out. The Sunni army & party don't always see eye-to-eye with the Hezbollah.
