I love how reporting things like this generates downvotes on the topic even though OP took the time to paste actual screenshots proving it to be true.

He's technically correct according to some schools of international politics.

But he's saying this to casually connect Iran to a declaration of war on Israel. In all that blab he casually infers Hezbollah is an Iranian military unit and it declared war on October 8th. Which creates the question of a casus belli against Iran.

This is a propaganda technique where stuff like this is mentioned in passing by a bunch of different people. Our full attention is on the idea that he's delegitimizing the surrounding countries. But that other bit slips past and if we hear something over and over without questioning it we can actually internalize it.

So that's kind of scary to think about.

This is what the Founder of Zionism actually believes.

Welp, regardless of the very real issues in these countries, this is exactly the kind of rhetoric that precedes an invasion, as it did when Putin started publicly questioning Ukraine’s status as a country. This helps cement my assessment that Israel is going to go for a larger land grab with the pretext of building a buffer zone for the protection of its citizens.

They're not going to stop land grabbing...

As long as they think America has their back. They'll keep going.

And Biden has spent over 50 years saying he'll always support them no matter what.

That geriatric old fuck needs out of office now. We can't wait for January and he's clearly lost all his marbles or he'd be the candidate.

There is real life shit going on and Biden has shown time and time again. He's just not capable of handling it

The eventual outcome of the slippery slope that comes from justifying colonial interests that were legitimized in cooperation with the Nazis under the Haavara Agreement under the vise of religion.

Does Israel really have a monopoly on power? Don't they have huge numbers of settler militia types out there attacking Palestinians and driving them from their lands?

Like Putin sais about soviet countries!? good to know israel is not the bad guy s/

They are just declaring their neighbors illegitimate and marching in like Putin.

Not really onion-y.

Lebanon literally has a foreign paramilitary group with considerabily political power controlling part of it's territory, so they are arguable not a fully sovereign state. And in the end statehood is not a clear definied concept and what really matter is recognition from other states. A state not recognition another for poltical reasons is not really something strange or absurd. That's pretty much the norm.

I think US oil interests might have a thing or two to say about declaring Iraq not a country.

The US could be in a leopards ate my face situation if Israel pursues that line of thought into taking destructive military actions in Iraq.

Nationalist Narcissism begins.
