As fears of a breakout of a full-scale war between Israel and Lebanon grow, CNN reported that senior Biden administration officials told senior Israeli officials last week that the US would fully back Israel if a full-scale war breaks out between Israel and Lebanon. However, the US will not deploy US troops on the ground.
National Security Adviser Tzachi Hanegbi and Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer met with senior Biden administration officials on Thursday, including US national security adviser Jake Sullivan, Secretary of State Antony Blinken, and White House Middle East affairs coordinator Brett McGurk.
US officials said that they were concerned that if Hezbollah launched a massive barrage of missiles at Israel during a full-scale war, it would overwhelm Israel’s Iron Dome missile defense system.
Hezbollah published a video overnight Motzei Shabbos of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah threatening [with English and Hebrew subtitles] that if a full-scale war “is imposed on Lebanon,” Hezbollah “will fight Israel without rules, restraints, or limits.”
The video then displayed images of Israeli targets in central and northern Israel, and ended with the words [in Arabic, Hebrew and English]: “Whoever thinks of war against us will regret it.”

“Don’t”
“We got (a knife) in Israel’s back”
If it wasn’t so serious it would be laughable
Hopefully Israel will fight without rules as well. If Israel would for once fight with no rules, all these animals no matter the name – Hamas, Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad, PFLP etc etc would all be obliterated, with lots of collateral damage to boot.
Time for Lebanon to be sent back to the Stone Age
Of course almost half of Lebanese are Christians, meaning they can’t stand Hezbollah and have strong connections to the west – so bombing them back to the stone age might be a problem. For all purposes, Lebanon is a country under Iranian occupation, so Israel needs to be ready to wipe out Iran, and to withstand sanctions from the goyim who never did like the Jews being uppity.
The zionists wanted to get into the “sovereign state” business, and soon they will need to show they can hold their own, and once and for all disprove the rabbanim who thought we should stick to Torah and Mitsvos, and let the goyim have their genocidal wars (and concentrate on staying out of the way).
