    There was a ceasefire between Hezbollah and Israel from 2006 until October 8th 2023. Then Hezbollah attacked Israel for a year causing tens of thousands of Israelis to flee the north, before the IDF went in to stop the attacks.

    Hezbollah should not have even been in southern Lebanon according to UNSC resolution 1701.

      Was Israel really attacked In October 2023? This is the first I heard of it. So weird for something like that to just happen out of the clear blue sky to such wonderful people who definitely didn’t provoke it or anything.

        Sure there’s a history behind everything. This escalations started on October 7th 2023. It remains the day with the most violent deaths in one day for all of the wars involving Israel.

          I’m sorry (not really) but decades of watching Israel unnecessarily provoke Palestine with apartheid dominance and unjustified illegal land grabs, I’m fucking done with “both sides”. The prejudices might be symmetrical, but only Israel had the power to alter the dynamics, and they chose the path to violence.
