Hezbollah issued an evacuation order yesterday evening for Israeli settlers in 25 northern settlements, mirroring the occupation forces’ actions in Lebanon. The move follows widespread Israeli evacuation orders targeting areas including Beirut’s Southern Suburb, Southern Lebanon, the Bekaa, and parts of Tyre, with claims of Hezbollah military presence in civilian homes.

Hezbollah stated that the settlements had become military outposts for Israeli forces attacking Lebanon, making them “legitimate military targets” for its air and missile forces. Settlers were told to “evacuate immediately,” as their settlements had become bases for the enemy military. A video issued by Hezbollah’s Military Media reiterated this warning.

Hezbollah clearly needs to seize a 20 km chunk of northern Israel to serve as a security buffer zone for the people of Lebanon.

We are only to assume that so long as they phone ahead, or put out a tweet or some shit, and then if they say that some IDF-affiliated (or even some Israeli government affiliated) random person was in the general vicinity, it's super fair game to just bomb houses, hospitals, schools, etc, right? RIGHT?

"There's an IDF headquarter below that hospital"

This is obviously one of the more tragic wars in modern history but that is good trolling.

Rule 0 of warfare: don't start a war if you don't want the consequences of war.

Right, so Israel shouldnt have murdered and kicked all those people off their land during the Nakba.
