Like Hamas, Hizballah uses human shields. Its daily attacks on Israel have prompted defense maneuvers from Israel. As the war escalates, the same false charges against Israel will be repeated, including blaming Israel for death tolls instead of blaming the terrorists who are causing the death toll to rise in their quest to obliterate Israel altogether.
Iranian proxy Hizballah has now pointed the finger at Israel for pagers exploding across Lebanon, killing several Hizballah operatives and wounding over 2,750 others — “including Hezbollah fighters, medics and Iran’s envoy to Beirut.”
But the pagers were a strategy of Hizballah; it has been using these “low-tech devices to evade Israel’s sophisticated surveillance technology” as it executed daily attacks against Israeli citizens. Israel outsmarted them again.
“Israel Says, Halting Hezbollah Attacks is Now a War Goal,” by Josef Federman and Julia Frankel, Associated Press, September 17, 2024:
JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel said Tuesday that halting Hezbollah’s attacks in the country’s north to allow residents to return to their homes is now an official war goal, as it considers a wider military operation in Lebanon that could ignite an all-out conflict.
Israeli officials have repeatedly threatened to take heavier military action to halt the near-daily attacks, which began shortly after the outbreak of the nearly yearlong Israel-Hamas war in Gaza.
Israel has regularly launched airstrikes on Lebanon in response for and has targeted and killed senior Hezbollah commanders.
As recently as last month it appeared a full-blown war was imminent.
Tuesday’s statement by Israel’s security Cabinet signaled a tougher stance at a time when Israeli leaders have stepped up their warnings….

Breaking news: “Hezbollah hand-held radios detonate across Lebanon, sources say”
“BEIRUT (Reuters) -Hand-held radios used by Lebanon’s armed group Hezbollah detonated late on Wednesday afternoon across the country’s south and in the southern suburbs of the capital Beirut, a security source and a witness said.At least one of the blasts took place near a funeral organized by Iran-backed Hezbollah for those killed the previous day when thousands of pagers used by the group exploded across the country.
The group said on Wednesday it had attacked Israeli artillery positions with rockets in the first strike at its arch-foe since pager blasts wounded thousands of its members in Lebanon and raised the prospect of a wider Middle East war.”

“Gold Apollo said the devices were made by under licence by a company called BAC, based in Hungary’s capital Budapest.
There was no immediate word on when Hezbollah had launched its latest rocket attack, but normally the group announces such strikes shortly after carrying them out, suggesting it fired at the Israeli artillery positions on Wednesday.”

“U.N. to vote on resolution calling on Israel to withdraw to pre-1967 borders”
“Sept. 18 (UPI) — The U.N. General Assembly will vote Wednesday on a resolution calling on Israel to end its occupation of Palestinian territory two months after the International Court of Justice ruled it was unlawful and that security concerns cannot override the universal prohibition on taking territory by force.”
But this is ‘war’ and armies **take** territory by force. It’s what they do to win.
Besides, the Land already **belongs** to Israel, so they are not ‘taking territory by force,’ they are just cleaning house and getting rid of the vermin.

It’s moved on to exploding walkie talkies now. If it isn’t Israel, must be that rise of the machines we’ve all been warned about.

If the Israelis can get hold of some of the muslim’s goats and sheep, they can assure that the muslims won’t be able to reproduce.
