The Lebanese people have been taken hostage by Hezbollah over the years. Christian Lebanese are detained, deferred, abused, raped and murdered in Lebanon. The death of terror leader Nasrallah was an understandably joyous occasion for the oppressed Lebanese people. As in Gaza with Hamas, all Hezbollah would have to do to stop Israeli attacks is stop lobbing rockets at Israeli civilians. Apparently these authors can't equate the desire to murder Israelis with genocide. Only Israeli responses are considered genocide or war crimes.

I think the Israelis are behind the toy rocket attacks to justify what is an apartheid state and genocide...

Israel is behind rockets from over the border in Gaza and Lebanon?

Etienne, you just underlined my statement. How is Israel apartheid? It has Arab Muslims in the Knesset. It employed many of the Gazans who retuned on Oct 7th to murder Israelis. However, if Israel DID restrict non-Jewish participation, what would be wrong with that? It is a Jewish nation, founded on the lands Jews were inhabiting, much of the time under occupation by Muslims. I rarely hear people complain that many Arab and non-Arab Muslim nations have evicted almost every Christian and Jew from their lands, nor do they allow them to make political decisions.

Israel has been an economic and scientific powerhouse for decades. The computer you write on would not be in your hands without the chip design Israelis originally developed. Many of the medications in common use today were developed by Israeiis. Water treatment, agriculture, healthcare--not including their disastrous use of COVID vaccines--have had great strides in Israel. What do we get from the surrounding Arab nations? Olives, dates, and terror.
