This fucking asshole is sitting by while Israel literally deletes whole Lebanese villages off the map. I hope the Lebanese people can overthrow and execute their president.

Daily reminder that Hezbollah actively supported the Syrian occupation of Lebanon.

An illegal military occupation that lasted until 2005, longer than the Israeli occupation. Israel occupied a bunch of shitty villages near their border. Syria occupied 70% of the country and every major city (Tripoli, Beirut). Syrians murdered countless anti-occupation figures.

They are traitors pretending to be patriots.

Not to whitewash Hezbollah war crimes but without Hezbollah, Israel would have colonies inside Lebanon. Israel is now shamelessly killing Lebanese official army soldiers. The day the army get strong and able to defend itself against the greater Israel genocidal project, we can start about disarming Hezbollah

The Lebanese "army" is a meme. What kind of army sees an invader crossing the border, then just stands there to watch?

Not even that. They evacuated their posts a week before the Israeli invasion and left the villagers to defend themselves on their own.

An occupation that countered Israeli influence in the region, a country which still currently occupies Lebanon right now.

Small countries like that don't often get the chance to choose independence. But they can choose who gets to occupy them. Some occupiers are less bad than others.

Ah, kind of like the times the Maronites invited the Israelis to invade in order to gain an advantage over the Sunnis, Shi'ites and Druze?

Spiderman meme.

He's not wrong that triggering a war for the benefit of Iran is treason.

But settling on unfavorable terms for internal political benefit would also be treason.

Israel is openly supporting the greater Israel project. Hezbollah actions are all about preemptive attacks against settler colonization
