Dont forget the whole christians better not be hiding muslims. It’s like they don’t care about the whole holocaust or history repeating itself.

[–] eldavi@lemmy.ml 17 points 1 month ago

i doubt that they have to care; the entire western world is looking the other way while pretending that it's not happening no matter what they do or say.

it's only a VERY few "malcontents" that are doing anything and they're powerless against the systems that they're a part of.

Greater Israel = Third Reich

I feel like we could save a word and just change “forward defense” to “invasion.”

Seriously, the way these people manipulate language is almost impressive in its fucked uppedness

It’s not rape, it’s surprise sex!

It’s not a scam, it’s an aggressive investment opportunity!

It’s not stealing, it’s involuntary asset redistribution!

It’s not propaganda, it’s morale enhancement!

Is it still called the IDF if they're invading occupying and killing?

[–] NewDark@lemmy.today 29 points 1 month ago

That's been the entire country's history sooo...?

Obviously this land was given to them by god. They are just reclaiming it.

Lebanon was dragged into the war on March 2, when Hezbollah opened fire in support of Tehran, prompting an Israeli offensive that has killed more than 2,100 people, ⁠including 177 children, and forced more than 1.2 million to flee, Lebanese authorities say.

After attacking Lebanon multiple times, after committing anti semitic occupation of Palestinians for over 50 years, after committing genocide, and after bombing Iran for no reason, they bombed Lebanon during a cease fire.

Fuck Israel

Reuters can also get fucked

I haven't asked up until now but what the fuck is the Levanese government's problem, they're such useless assholes

[–] Count042@lemmy.ml 17 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

They're intentionally set up to be unable to resist Israel.

Hezbollah is designed to fight israeli aggression.

The Lebanese army will never be able to fight hezbollah, because of the two above sentences.

Trying to avoid another horrible civil war instigated by the Israelis + leaders are enjoying/profiting off Shia rivals being abused for fighting the occupation. Lebanon is a crabs in a barrel situation thanks to the Brits and French.

As a percentage or land area total?

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 month ago

as a percentage of land

[–] quips@slrpnk.net -3 points 1 month ago (2 children)

How could this possibly be true?

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 15 points 1 month ago
[–] pelikan@lemmy.dbzer0.com 15 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I guess the headline refers to percentages, since the territory of Crimea alone is more than twice the size of entire Lebanon.

[–] quips@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 month ago

Yeah exactly

[–] zealouscurmedgeon@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 month ago

Lebanon would have had to have launched a land reclamation campaign big enough to make the Dutch look like amateurs or made their own Greater Lebanon for the headline to have been in anything other than percentages.
