On @skynewsarabia: Until year 2000, Hezbollah was on the right side of UN Security Council Resolution 425 that stipulated withdrawal of Israel from Lebanon. But in 2000, Israel withdrew and UN certified its compliance. Since 2006, Israel became on the right side of UN Security Council Resolution 1701 that stipulates disarmament of Hezbollah. Unlike in 2000 when Hezbollah could have made a case for resistance, today Israel correctly makes the case that Hezbollah is an outlaw rogue militia that must be disarmed, and whatever Israel do is to enforce a UN resolution where as Hezbollah is in violation.

@lebanesesami Wow. Youre dumb. Jews were ethnically cleansed from Lebanon and the region long before we had an army that could defend us. When the Arab world learns to stop making excuses for its failures on others, especially jews, the world will be a better place

Jews be like “Arabs don’t accept us in the region because of our religion🥺” Uh actually no. Lebanon itself has 18 different religions. People don’t accept you because you intentionally kill children. Hope this helps

Mario. You are usually reasonable but you've lost the plot. Israel has only ever gone into Lebanon because militants, first PLO now Hezbollah, use the country, villages, homes, as a launch pad for attacks on Israel. No Attacks on Israel, no need for Hezbollah. Its really that simple. Im shocked you are promoting their "defender of Lebanon " BS. From 2006 to 2023 Israel didn't touch Lebanon..only when Hezb joined Oct 7. Making life hell for Israeli civilians. Its not that hard. Get rid of Hezb who keeps abusing Lebanon to attack Israel, Israel has no reason to go into Lebanon.

🇱🇧 🇮🇱 The people whose homes are being demolished have no ties to Hezbollah. Matthew Hoh says the disarmament demand sounds clean in a briefing room and falls apart the moment you ask what Lebanese Shia are supposed to do without the only military force that's ever deterred Israeli incursions into their country. No justification for civilian demolitions. No answer for what comes after disarmament. Just demands and destruction. @MatthewPHoh

Indeed this is why western media is a joke about the Middle East

@shaunking Are you retarded? They were caught sneaking into Israel and stopped by Israeli police...which is comprised of Jews and Arabs. You're as racist as you are stupid

I’m told that the Israeli delegation made it clear today in talks with Lebanon and the US that they have no interest in holding Lebanese territory #lebanon #israel

France’s exclusion from the Washington Israeli-Lebanese talks should have been a diplomatic scandal, a historic ally locked out of the most significant Lebanon negotiation in thirty years. But Beirut didn’t protest, didn’t lobby for French inclusion, and didn’t even notice. That silence is the real verdict. France spent decades posturing as Lebanon’s guardian, hosting summits, drafting frameworks, and performing concern from the chandeliered rooms of the Élysée, while Hezbollah’s arsenal swelled from fifteen thousand rockets to two hundred thousand under the watch of French UNIFIL troops who enforced nothing. Macron proposed Paris as the venue for these very talks, drafted a recognition plan, and personally called Aoun, Salam, and Berri, and previously Mikati, to choreograph a French-led diplomatic triumph. Today, Lebanon and Israel are sitting across from each other at the State Department in Washington, brokered by Marco Rubio and mediated by the American Ambassador to Beirut, Michel Issa, who is of Lebanese origin and remains a Lebanese. France was not just sidelined, it was rendered irrelevant by its own record of performing diplomacy without producing a single enforceable outcome. The bridge Macron wanted to claim credit for was built by others, and the cruelest part isn’t that France was excluded, it’s that nobody in Beirut objected. - @BecharaGerges

NEW: An urgent phone call from Saudi Crown Prince MBS changed Trump’s decision at the last minute: President Trump had intended to declare a complete ceasefire and end the fighting against Iran in exchange for the immediate opening of the Strait of Hormuz. However, a tense phone call with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman dramatically changed the plan. According to White House sources, bin Salman begged Trump not to stop the war: “This is a historic opportunity – we must finish the job and weaken the Iranian regime once and for all.” In exchange for continuing the fighting, Saudi Arabia offered an unprecedented package of economic and strategic incentives. Key points in the offer: • $100 billion transferred directly to finance American war costs • Full and immediate normalization with Israel after the fall of the regime • Direct oil pipeline from Saudi Arabia to the port of Ashdod, turning Israel into a major energy hub • Investment of approximately $1 trillion in the U.S. economy + purchase of $500 billion in American weapons • Establishment of a new regional defense alliance, including Israel, Saudi Arabia, and other moderate countries under an American umbrella • Joint naval force to control the Strait of Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb • Funding of strategic U.S. bases in Israel • Joint reconstruction fund for a post-regime “secular and moderate” Iran In the end, Trump announced a temporary ceasefire, not an end to the war as was expected. Senior diplomatic sources describe the move as “a historic turning point” marking the beginning of a new regional order.

“But there was no Hezbollah when Israel occupied Lebanon in 1982!” True. But you don’t get to draw lines wherever it helps your case. Chronology doesn’t work that way. So here’s a quick timeline for you: 1943: Lebanon is born. 1948: Arabs invade Israel. 100k Palestinians flee to Lebanon. Jordan occupies Judea and Samaria, names it West Bank. Egypt occupies Gaza. 1950s-60s: Lebanon prospers. Beirut the “Paris of the Middle East.” 1964: PLO is born in Jerusalem. 1967: Six-Day War. Aggressors lose, Israel gets control of Judea and Samaria, Gaza, Sinai, and Golan Heights. 300k Palestinians flee to Lebanon. Arafat and PLO expelled from Israel for collaborating with the invaders during war, flee to Jordan. 1970-71: PLO “state within a state” in Jordan. Attempts to assassinate King and overthrow government. Crushed by Jordanian forces with help from Pakistan’s Zia ul Haq. Expelled from Jordan. 1971: PLO relocates to Southern Lebanon. Another “state within a state,” named “Fatahland.” Sudden demographic shift in Lebanon. Resented by the natives. 1970s: Regular artillery and rocket launches and border raids from Southern Lebanon into Israeli border towns. Avivim School Bus Massacre (1970), Kiryat Shmona Massacre (1974), Ma'alot Massacre (1974), Kibbutz Shamir Attack (1974), Savoy Hotel Attack (1975), Coastal Road Massacre (1978), Nahariya Attack (1979)... 1975: Start of Lebanese civil war between Muslims and Christians, largely fueled by the sudden influx of Muslim refugees from Israel eroding Lebanon’s own sovreignty. 1982: PLO splinter Abu Nidal Organization attempts to assassinate Israel’s ambassador to the UK in London. Israel demands destruction of “Fatahland” to eliminate the nuisance once and for all. Lebanon helpless. IDF invades Lebanon. Occupies Southern Lebanon. Massive cleanup operation, Arafat and PLO expelled. But this didn’t end the civil war. PLO was then about 14k terrorists in Southern Lebanon. Even after their expulsion, the region still had more than 300k Palestinians who were not “officially” PLO but a nuisance all the same. That’s when Ayatollah Khomenei steps in. Hezbollah is born to occupy the militant leadership space left vacant by Arafat. Yes, Hezbollah was born AFTER Israeli occupation. Which happened AFTER a decade of terrorism by PLO jihadis in Lebanon. Do not confuse cause with effect. It’s dishonest and in this day and age, impossible to get away with. x.com/HadiNasrallah/…

@alison_ibra @mamoun_linda When the enemy, who is attacking you, is positioning itself in civilian areas...yes. by all historical and professional metrics yes.

@DanFeferman @mamoun_linda Let's agree on your statistic for the sake of argument...so 30% of civilian deaths, and billions worth of civian infrastructure destruction is okay? That's being "precise"???

Israel can kill thousands of people, raze entire neighbourhoods, and still manage to keep its name out of the headline.

And So It Begins. The Great gas lighting of the Philo jihadists and Neo marxists. Israel has, by most estimates, killed around 1,000 or so Lebanese over the last 5 weeks, the vast majority of them is Hezbollah Fighters, because of its efforts to clear out civilians and conduct mostly targeted operations. Of course the same thing would be for anyone to call out the Iranian proxy from constantly instigating conflict against Israel from Lebanese territory and thus forcing Israel to take action. But much better to Gaslight the world into thinking Israel is an aggressor

@ksadjadpour Hi Karim - appreciate all the great insights. Would like to invite you to my podcast on @MiddleEast_24 i can't seem to be able to DM you - please get back to me if interested.

1 The defining deliberations of this war aren't between the US and Iran, but Trump and himself. He’s vacillated between walking away and promising to bomb Iran to the Stone Age. Iran has been consistent: Its ideology is resistance, its strategy is chaos, its endgame is survival.

Is a ceasefire announcement eminent?

On BBC farsi discussing the war drom Israel's POV

@mehdirhasan Wonder why

In most countries, young voters are more liberal and progressive than their elders. In Israel it’s the reverse.

@XBT1337 @EYakoby @YairNetanyahu Ah thank you for the education

In case you were not aware, in todays world Zionists are on par with Nazis if not worse. Israel has damaged its reputation on the world stage and its beyond repair. The Zionist label is the lowest of the low. The majority of humans living on earth today believe Zionists are sub human filth. This is a a fact.

BREAKING: The Iranian Regime is directly using propaganda and getting new propaganda from accounts such as Jackson Hinkle and Mario Nawful. None of this is organic and so many are being duped into believing it.

And this is why, to America, Israel is an asset ally, not a liability. — An American pilot with 25 years of experience, a veteran of three wars and hundreds of combat sorties, spoke about Israeli military pilots. He published a post that quickly went viral: “I’ve flown over Iraq, Afghanistan, and Libya. I thought I had seen everything. But when I saw what the Israeli Air Force is doing in Iran, I realized I’m still a student. Precision. Logistics. 200 aircraft in one night. 500 targets. 1,500 kilometers. No aerial refueling from American bases. All the fuel from home. All the weapons from home. It’s like flying from Miami to New York, bombing targets along the way, and returning while 200 aircraft move simultaneously without a single collision. To the Israeli pilots: You are not just the best in the Middle East. You are the best in the world. And that’s the final word.” —
