Benjamin Netanyahu has warned Lebanese people that they could face “destruction and suffering” like the Palestinians in Gaza if they don’t “free” the country from Hezbollah.

“You have an opportunity to save Lebanon before it falls into the abyss of a long war that will lead to destruction and suffering like we see in Gaza,” the Israeli prime minister said in a video address directed to the people of Lebanon.

“I say to you, the people of Lebanon: Free your country from Hezbollah so that this war can end.”

    2/3rds of America support a ceasefire. This isn’t the will of the majority. Just the will of the rich.

      Joe Biden also supports a cease fire. He will LITERALLY do and say whatever is most popular, and he has been. That’s his entire schtick. Also, 2/3 of likely voters say they support Israel. Old people are despicable and this thread is a circle jerk.

        If he did actually support a ceasefire, he would have enforced it. Israel is America’s proxy. Biden holds the cards here.

          Biden. Will. Do. Whatever. Is. Popular. Regardless of his personal feelings on the matter. Get that through your thick fucking head.

            The popular opinion is to force Israel to make a ceasefire agreement. Biden hasn’t done it though. So you’re wrong.
