"More than 1.2 million people have been displaced and another 1,200 have been killed in Lebanon since Israel launched an offensive against Hezbollah on March 2, ignited by the group's decision to open fire in support of Tehran in the regional war."
Maybe if Lebanon controlled its border, this wouldn't happen. It's sad to see pro-Hezbollah propaganda on Mastodon.

No one is blameless. But if you want to align yourself with Hezbollah, go ahead.
Do you think Hezbollah is a good organization with values that align with yours? How do you think Hezbollah treats gay people? Women? Do you think they are antisemites? What do you think Hezbollah thinks of non-Muslims?
How do you feel about getting your house shelled from another country?

I'm making a big assumption here, but I'd bet that you consider yourself a lefty sort of person. I know I consider myself one.
The average lefty has gone WAY off track on Israel. It's ignorance of history. WILLFUL ignorance. It's ignorance of geography. It's ignorance of culture (applying western values to non-western cultures).
In this case it's simply ignorance of what is happening in Lebanon.
The article clearly explains why this conflict is taking place. You either did not read it or you are blinded by something. I don’t know if it’s antisemitism, if it’s ignorance,if you maybe can’t read,if you don’t follow the situation on the Lebanon border or maybe you really do share the values of Hezbollah.
