The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Israel sends troops into southern Lebanon as Hezbollah says it is ready for open war

BEIRUT (AP) — Israel sent additional troops into southern Lebanon Tuesday and ordered residents of more than 80 villages to evacuate as the Iran-backed Hezbollah militant group said it is ready for an open war, escalating the already volatile situation in the region.

The latest exchanges started after Hezbollah fired rockets and drones early Monday toward northern Israel. Israel retaliated with a wave of airstrikes that killed 52 people in Lebanon, including a Palestinian militant and a Hezbollah intelligence official in Beirut’s southern suburbs. More than 150 people were wounded and tens of thousands displaced.

Israel is not shy about it's ethnic cleansing operations in Gaza and the West Bank (Judea and Sumeria in Florida). We have seen them invade southern Lebanon before. Remember how the IDF drove into the southern burbs of Beirut, then stood by as a Christian militia went into a couple Pal neighborhoods and killed everyone in sight? And Saint Reagan sent US troops to cover Israel's flank. We lost over 200 of our guys, in one day, fighting Israel's war that time. Will the IDF, eventually, pull back this time? Or will Israel defacto annex Lebanon as part of the "Greater Israel" project?
