The blame for Israel’s war on the Hamas is squarely on Hamas. Likewise, any war between Hizballah and Israel would be entirely Hizballah’s fault. The expansion of the war lies in the hands of brutal jihadists funded by Iran, and who hate the West as much as they hate Israel. The leftist media and the Biden administration are serving to strengthen the global jihad.
Michael Singh, a former senior director for Middle East affairs at the National Security Council, is quoted below as saying:
“Is now the time it wants to fight this war, or would it rather call it a day if it can achieve some kind of calm in Gaza and leave it for another day? We just don’t know.”
That’s because despite Hezbollah’s provocations, the group appears to be deterred and doesn’t want a full-scale conflict, Singh told NaySec Daily. Instead, it wants to keep pressure on Israel and show its support for Hamas militants, he told NatSec Daily. Hezbollah has said it won’t stop attacking Israel until its operation in Gaza stops.
So Singh is suggesting that Israel stop its operations in Gaza in order to appease Hizballah. Appeasement emboldens jihadists, who perceive it as weakness. All Westerners need to support Israel and stand firm against jihadists, who seek regional and global domination.
“War with Hezbollah ‘lies in Israel’s hands,’” by Matt Berg and Eric Bazail-Eimil, Politico, June 25, 2024:
The Biden administration is trying hard to stop a war between Israel and Hezbollah from breaking out, but there are no signs yet that its efforts are paying off.
Israel appears closer to conducting a military operation against Hezbollah militants in Lebanon, and Israeli Prime Minister BENJAMIN NETANYAHU vowed to move some Israel’s forces to its northern border with Lebanon. That comes less than a week after U.S. special envoy AMOS HOCHSTEIN visited the region in an attempt to defuse tensions between Israel and Hezbollah.
There are no indications — from Netanyahu at least — that Washington’s efforts via Hochstein are panning out. The U.S. is watching the situation closely and appears to be making moves in preparation.
Joint Chiefs Chair C.Q. BROWN warned on Sunday that an Israel offensive into Lebanon could draw in Iran and spark a wider war, putting American troops in the region at risk. The USS Theodore Roosevelt aircraft carrier, which was in the Pacific, will soon depart for the Middle East. And a DOD official told our own LARA SELIGMAN that the USS Wasp — a U.S. Marine Corps amphibious warship — is currently in the Mediterranean Sea and is headed east, adding to U.S. firepower in Israel’s backyard.
But Israel is in the driver’s seat of this conflict, former U.S. officials told NatSec Daily, and it’s mostly up to them whether or not it escalates.
The decision to go to war right now “really lies in Israel’s hands,” said MICHAEL SINGH, a former senior director for Middle East affairs at the National Security Council. “Is now the time it wants to fight this war, or would it rather call it a day if it can achieve some kind of calm in Gaza and leave it for another day? We just don’t know.”
That’s because despite Hezbollah’s provocations, the group appears to be deterred and doesn’t want a full-scale conflict, Singh told NaySec Daily. Instead, it wants to keep pressure on Israel and show its support for Hamas militants, he told NatSec Daily. Hezbollah has said it won’t stop attacking Israel until its operation in Gaza stops……

Hmmm! Hizb’allah fires over 5000 rockets into Israel, many causing significant damage and killing Israelis, and if Israel retaliates, it is her fault? Yes, we are approaching a Wonderland world, where the only sane person is Alice!

What rubbish! All the world knows, save for those who hate Jews, Israel, Christians, and the West, who the aggressors are! What days have these organized criminals, hiding behind Islam, not attacked, provoked, threatened, and supported destroying all those they hate? The greatest crime and organized criminals, are the rulers in our world, from the West to the Marxist, and all the Muslim nations of Islam, who seek to enslave, rape, and murder the Jews, Christians, the West! It is long past time to call out and expose all the crimes being perpetrated by the three world wide Crime Syndicates, the Globalist Elites of the West, the Marxist, and Islam; these powers and forces behind the ideologies of Globalism, Elitism, Marxism, and Islam are the ones controlling our world today! They own it all! The wars, rapes, murders, and crimes!
