Israel Says Attack Against Hezbollah Will Be Severe But Targeted

Perhaps if Lebanon would crack down on the terrorists in their nation none of this would be necessary. Perhaps if 1st World nations, especially the U.S., would promise severe consequences against Hezbollah if they continue their terrorism none of this would be necessary. Perhaps if so many in the “religion of peace” weren’t terrorists none of this would be necessary. Perhaps if the Koran didn’t say to spread Islam by the point of a sword none of this would be necessary

As diplomats scramble, Israel says response to Hezbollah to be ‘harsh’ but contained

With the region on edge ahead of an expected Israeli retaliation against Hezbollah for a deadly rocket strike on Saturday, Western diplomats urged de-escalation, while Israeli officials suggested that the response would be serious but not lead to an all-out conflagration.

Israeli officials speaking to Reuters said Israel wants to hurt Hezbollah, but not drag the Middle East into regional war, while other Israeli officials told the wire service that the IDF is preparing for the possibility of a few days of fighting with the Iran-backed Lebanese terror group.

In the Hezbollah strike on the Druze town of Majdal Shams in the Golan Heights on Saturday afternoon, 12 children were killed while playing on a soccer field when they were hit by what Israel said was an Iranian-made Falaq-1 rocket with a warhead of over 50kg of explosives.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited Majdal Shams on Monday, saying that “these children are our children; they are all the children of all of us.”

Netanyahu said that “Israel will not and cannot let this simply pass on by. Our response will come, and it will be harsh.”

It’s all really easy: stop attacking Israel, especially civilian targets, because there comes a time when Israel has had enough and will respond with devastating force, as we witnessed with Gaza. Of course, the terrorists, as backed by Iran, want Israel to attack, because there are plenty of 1st World wackos who are anti-Semites and will take the side of the terrorist groups

Iran warns of serious consequences for any Israeli hit on Lebanon

Any possible Israeli attack on Lebanon will have serious consequences for Israel, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said in a phone call with French counterpart Emmanuel Macron, Iran’s state media reported on Monday.

Israeli authorities blamed Iran-backed Lebanese group Hezbollah for a rocket attack that hit a football ground in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights on Saturday, killing 12 children and teenagers, and vowed to inflict a heavy response. Hezbollah denied any responsibility for the strike.

“Any possible Israeli attack on Lebanon will have serious consequences for Israel,” Pezeshkian was quoted by Iranian state media as saying.

“We are willing to improve our relations with France on the basis of mutual trust,” Pezeshkian added in his conversation with Macron.

And what did Macron tell Pezeshkian? We know he told Netanyahu to not escalate. Macron should have been telling Iran that France has Israel’s back, and any moves by Iran would result in serious consequences against Iran. Force is what Iran understands, not squishy talk.
