By the same token, those countries then should be able to target Israeli's given they are housing plenty of "terrorists" of their own no?

The U.S. Code of Federal Regulations defines terrorism as "the unlawful use of force and violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives" (28 C.F.R. Section 0.85).

So that'd be Israeli settlers right?

And the Israeli states support of same.

Yet apaz, not?

Go figure.

It looks like she is mocking the people acting and posting it on social media..

She’s some sort of comedian. Needs new material.

Are they?

 

[JokerEel]

Well it does kinda, because Hezbollah is in Lebanon, not Gaza or the West Bank. So attacks that are designed to hurt Hezbollah bring Lebanon further into the conflict, again escalating the situation.

They are terrorists Hezbollah is firing rockets into Israel.

I don't support Israel bombing civilians but The f**kwits in Gaza are bombing their own people so maybe throw some hate at them as well?

I guess anyone should be able to make money from the deaths of innocent people.

I do find it a bit convenient that they blew up a Mosque taking out terrorists cells..

If they got Hamas, fine. Unsure if any if the 1,000 children that have died were Hamas supporters, sympathisers or even knew what Hamas is.

Are they?

Yes

Because they can and will act with impunity, and they are fearful that what they are doing will escalate into a regional conflict, these steps are both preemptive and a warning to those states to stay in f**king line.

Oh, by the way, those US aircraft carriers stationed off the coast, they aint there for any other reason than to warn those states that if they f**k around, they will find out.

Spiffing.
That should keep things calm.

The US aircraft carriers have "already" stopped/intercepted missiles from Yemen.

Hezbollah are far more complicated than just being a terrorist organisation, they are also part of the government, and operate as both a state within a state and a defacto army.

This is debatable, we literally again have only Israeli intelligence reports to "confirm" that, and they've been caught out lying about this many times before, so treat such claims with caution.

But yes, Hamas are no better than the Israeli state.

No they are a terrorist group.

And it's not like both Hamas or Israel or any one in the media to make up stories...

Yes they are, but they are also much more than that.

Some reading if you're interested....

What Is Hezbollah?

The Iran-backed Shiite militia was considered the most powerful non-state group in the Middle East, but an Israeli military campaign against Hezbollah in 2024 has considerably weakened it.

I was listening to the BBC world service for awhile this afternoon.

I thought I’d been been following Qatar Owned Al Jazeera and it’s very graphic pro-Palestinian covering for awhile.

What a disappointment.

The airtime devoted to the war on the middle east was extremely limited.

I mean there’s more time on the big American networks.

The bbc covered Poland, the Ukraine, Belgium, Argentina, Brazil, China,Philippines…

Then another rant on poetry and third wave feminism.

Thats pretty much the end of the BBC for me.

I expect massive coverage, this war will have all kinds of long lasting impacts and thousands of people are getting wiped out daily.

The BBC is not a news service…they are away with the fairy’s.

World world three would arrive and they’d be down a cave with a feminist who argues the sun is part of a patriarchal plot.
