What is Hezbollah and how it affects the middle east conflict

Hezbollah, a powerful Shia Muslim group based in Lebanon, has long played a central role in regional conflicts, especially with Israel. Originally formed to resist Israel's occupation of southern Lebanon, Hezbollah has since grown into a major political and military force, heavily backed by Iran. With its vast arsenal of rockets and experienced fighters, Hezbollah remains a significant threat to Israel's security. As tensions rise following recent escalations, many fear that the situation along the Israel-Lebanon border could lead to a wider war.

Imagine a world where the Arabs accepted the 1947 UN borders and upheld the peace thereafter

[@jovialpunch]

@FlyxPat Imagine that, let's just expect the Arabs to live within the borders the Imperialist Western factions foisted upon the region and accept it without criticism. How dare we ask Israyhell to keep itself together when they steal land outside the borders it was so graciously gifted back in '47.

Amazing how the MSM and propaganda can convince you the OPRESSOR is the victim. I suggest you educate yourself on its history. A recent clip showed settlers from 1947 laugh and reminisce about how they executed entire familes killing hundreds just to steal their homes. Never seen the reports of Jews shooting dozens of men and women in the Genitals and laughing on camera. Not seen the IDF looting in homes they have destroyed. Start watching real news.

Silence over Syria? Didn’t you catch the news between 2011 and the fall of Raqqa in 2017? Must have been some other Syria that completely dominated the news for about 6 years in the 2010s. I seem to recall hearing nothing else about it. Western Leaders agonised over it. Ditto Iraq, we sent multiple armies back into Iraq after the rise of ISIS. Ditto Afghanistan where thousands of Western soldiers died. If Israel is tired of the emotional West they could stop accepting our weapons and military support. “we quit respecting reason in favour of emotionalism…” Actually emotionalism, especially in the USA, is at the core of the West’s support for Isreal. Guilt about the Holocaust, Cold War muscle memory and a sense that Israelis are more like us than their Arab neighbours. If the West was coolly pragmatic they might have cut her loose years ago. We hold our nose for Saudi and the Gulf States because frankly we don’t want the world economy to collapse. We hold our nose for Egypt because of the Suez canal. What is exactly is Israel bringing to the table? Some intelligence sharing; some testing of weapons systems, some arms sales. Not really that much. It is emotionalism that keeps the West supporting Israel. But a lot of people just aren’t convinced that they want to continue bankrolling the project. In the West there is just a growing Israel fatigue. People just don’t know why our political system is just so wrapped around the problems of a small country in the Middle East.

It is time Australia was put first in every aspect including children and medical aid, we can't and shouldn't be expected to continue showing support for conflicts.
