They keep killing these "key" terrorist leaders, displacedvermoter Sep 2024 #1

This one was behind the US embassy bombing and the Marine Corps bombing in 1983. former9thward Sep 2024 #2

Just saying they kill these folks pretty regularly displacedvermoter Sep 2024 #3

Israel doesn't kill Hezbollah leaders "pretty regularly" maxsolomon Sep 2024 #5

Who blew up the pagers? displacedvermoter Sep 2024 #6

The pager/walkie talkie attacks were not "regular" occurences. maxsolomon Sep 2024 #10

Not only was it unprecedented... BrianTheEVGuy Sep 2024 #19

It was reported on August 29 that Israel killed displacedvermoter Sep 2024 #7

Well of course what do you expect? EX500rider Sep 2024 #8

Ok, I guess that is one way to look at it. displacedvermoter Sep 2024 #9

Hezbollah definitely started this one firing thousands missiles across the border EX500rider Sep 2024 #11

It is an ongoing spiral of violence displacedvermoter Sep 2024 #12

Hezbollah leaves Israel alone, they leave them alone EX500rider Sep 2024 #13

You're right BrianTheEVGuy Sep 2024 #20

On that note, maybe Ukraine should just surrender too. Fighting back against Russia just breeds more violence... Lancero Sep 2024 #24

Not really the same thing, many historical snd displacedvermoter Sep 2024 #52

There are always more to take their place iemanja Sep 2024 #16

So? former9thward Sep 2024 #22

There is not a finite supply of terrorists iemanja Sep 2024 #23

What is the alternative? former9thward Sep 2024 #25

A negotiated ceasefire and a two-state solution iemanja Sep 2024 #26

No one in the region supports that. former9thward Sep 2024 #27

show me polling data to support your claim iemanja Sep 2024 #28

Most people do not support a two state solution. former9thward Sep 2024 #30

I found a poll for you iemanja Sep 2024 #31

And I won the argument. former9thward Sep 2024 #33

You said no one iemanja Sep 2024 #35

I have been to Israel many times. former9thward Sep 2024 #37

And somehow the fact that 34% of the population of Israel supports a two-state solution iemanja Sep 2024 #40

Since you know so much how many times have you been to the region? former9thward Sep 2024 #44

None, I googled a poll iemanja Sep 2024 #47

Since you are tonight's grammar police I used a typical rhetorical device. former9thward Sep 2024 #49

Does anyone actually say "no one supports Trump"? iemanja Sep 2024 #51

I'll save you the trouble iemanja Sep 2024 #29

By my math that means it is a political non-starter. former9thward Sep 2024 #32

Clearly that is what you want iemanja Sep 2024 #34

Harris and the Democratic party are not in charge in Israel or Gaza. former9thward Sep 2024 #36

You haven't paid attention iemanja Sep 2024 #38

Every president and I do mean every president since 1948 has said a two state solution. former9thward Sep 2024 #43

I don't object to that iemanja Sep 2024 #45

They created the problem, they can have it back. former9thward Sep 2024 #46

To me, at least... cab67 Sep 2024 #58

Hezbollah has nothing to do with a two state solution. They're a Lebanese proxy for Iran. LeftInTX Sep 2024 #39

Well, they claim they are fighting in response to Gaza iemanja Sep 2024 #41

They say, but it's not their motive. They want to destroy their neighbor because..... LeftInTX Sep 2024 #48

Okay iemanja Sep 2024 #50

That was 40 years ago onandup Sep 2024 #60

The principle reason was that he was the Hezbollah military commander. former9thward Sep 2024 #61

The principle reason is to save Trump, er, Bibi from prosecution onandup Sep 2024 #62

Hezbollah started the war. former9thward Sep 2024 #63

Or possibly Israel would like 60,000 Israeli refugees to be able to return to their homes.. EX500rider Sep 2024 #65
