we need to support ukraine because if russia isn't stopped from its war of territorial expansion then it will only be emboldened to invade other countries

The zionist entity is trying so hard to be the third reich that they're even fighting 2 fronts on opposite ends of the country.

Wow, just like 1978! And 1982! And 2006!

I saw the date at the bottom of the image and thought it was a month old, then remembered our backward-ass date convention in the US. Cant wait til tomorrow when it is 12-12-2023 no matter what.

The entire country could empty out and they'll invade to get the secret invisible Hesbollah members.

Death to imperialism

One of my older comrades was a doctor in the Israel-Lebanon war in 1987, he is visibly outraged and shocked by everything he saw Israel do in it.

I don't think the US is going to let Israel to a ground invasion of Lebanon. They are spooked by the reaction to the genocide in Gaza and itching for an opportunity to "reign Israel in". They will not do it in Palestine because they are fundamentally evil and support the genocide there, but Lebanon is a different matter. Netanyahu is so incredibly fucked since he will be held responsible for letting October 7 happen once there is not an acute state of emergency that he is to some extent forgetting that Israel is a US client state. That is a personal Netanyahu problem though, and Israel will send him to jail forever before disobeying the actual wishes of the US, servant nation that they are.

If they even try this, the US will step in as the "sensible" mediator and put a stop to it immediately.

I totally disagree with this analysis. Time will tell which of us is right.

[-] GaveUp@hexbear.net 14 points 11 months ago

Yea on the other hand, I feel like throwing Hezbollah onto the same side as Palestine against Israel will make for a great divide and conquer amongst the more liberal Palestine supporters in the US

[-] SchillMenaker@hexbear.net 3 points 11 months ago

I think that the US is going to really really want Israel to not do a ground invasion of Lebanon but also that the time of the US "letting" and "not letting" its proxies do things is a distant memory.

[-] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 18 points 11 months ago

I hope so, but the US has been full of nasty surprises lately

Do it, cowards!

[-] usernamesaredifficul@hexbear.net 13 points 11 months ago

That's among everything else just a really bad idea. They do remember that they lost last time

[-] InternetLefty@hexbear.net 4 points 11 months ago

Why are they trying to force a move now? Probably concerned about a long delayed conflict draining their personell and materiel so they want to force Hezbollah into the conflict early while they have the capacity to deal with them?
