Limited military operations on American college campuses.

Miraculously the active bombing campaigns of said campuses won't cause a lot of Jewish students to come out of the woodwork to cry on major media outlets about how unsafe they feel.

[Oceasia]

So far, it looks like barely anyone in Israel is injured because of this attack, but we all know that Israel's response will still be wildly escalatory.

I wonder, will they go after the Iranian nuclear facilities. That's what Bibi has been after for quite a while now. Not sure that would actually do anything other than ensure that Iran will be getting the nuke.

[Northern Seleucia]

Ironically, the (so far) one person killed was a Palestinian civilian in Jericho.

Nothing of importance?
Personally, I have ceased to perceive the Middle Eastern fighting as something that significantly changes the face of the region.

Last time the only casualty was an injured Bedouin child.

Time to use the death of one person as a justification to kill hundreds of thousands by invading Syria and bombing Iran to the ground while calling it a """proportionate response""". They’ve already displaced more than ten Lebanese civilians for every one Israeli civilian they claim to want to return.

So... -2 for Iran?

[Askio]

Israeli incursions in Lebanon and desires of a full invasion are condemnable. I understand that Israel wants to retaliate against Hezbollah, but an invasion is wrong (both morally and diplomatically), Lebanon as a state never invaded Israel - the Israeli government needs to stop escalating, I think it's time for a political/diplomatic solution and this time a long-term diplomatic solution, which should include full Palestinian independence as well as Palestinian recognition of Israel

IRGC saying that they akshually they targeted military and security targets. I'm almost certain that that is not possible just look at Gaza.

Israel needs to storm Gaza to take out Palestinians. Meanwhile the superior Iran can nail a Palestinian from halfway across the Middle East. Checkmate, Bibi.

[Jibjibistan]

De-escalation through escalations in action.

I'm gonna say it once just for the memes,

This is literally 1984!

[Fame And Even More Fame]

No it’s totally possible, the problem is that the terrorist government of Israel with their terrorist army have built their military installations in densely populated civilian areas, forcing Iran to hit human shields. Very sad.

Reverse hasbara hahahaha

Politico: US officials quietly backed Israel's invasion of Lebanon even as the Biden administration publicly urged Israel to curtail its attacks.

Presidential adviser Amos Hochstein and Brett McGurk, the White House coordinator for the Middle East, told top Israeli officials in recent weeks that the U.S. agreed with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s broad strategy to shift Israel’s military focus to the north against Hezbollah in order to convince the group to engage in diplomatic talks to end the conflict, the [American and Israeli] officials told POLITICO.

What's the plan here, Joe? Start a war for Kamala to win and secure a second term? Or just blood for the blood god?

If they were really against it, they would have halted all offensive weapon sales,

like RONALD REAGAN!

It would take a lot to be wildly escalotry to a launch of over 200 ballistic missiles.

[Alvosa]

Hold on… I will give you Middle Easterners a week to figure out if you’re gonna all go to war or not.

Israel considers someone saying "Free Palestine" as wildly escalatory. They are the most overreactful nation.

Lebanon as a state barely exists, I'm afraid. Even with Hezbollah's massive decimations, their army is much larger and better-armed than the Lebanese Army, they have a role in the cabinet, Lebanon's been without a President for over two years now and the deadlock isn't improving, and Beirut after the explosion has lost of lot of its prestige as poverty and crime are rising.

Anything short of going nuclear is a reasonable reaction to a country firing that many missiles at you.

Israel shouldn't start wars then

Apparently, it should not finish them either.

Yep, very anti-semitic of the world to say Israel cannot do whatever it wants with no reprucussions.
