Israel Launches Massive Attack on Lebanon, Heightening Fears of All-Out War | Common Dreams

Israel's military deployed around 100 fighter jets to launch a massive bombing campaign in southern Lebanon on Sunday, endangering tens of thousands of civilians and heightening the chances of an all-out regional war.

“Looks like Israel is now escalating in Lebanon in a major way in the hopes of kicking off a major war in the north that has thus far been kept to more limited exchanges,” warned one analyst.

    Russia only has those treaties because these countries fear Israel/US. Remove the threat, you remove their motivation and dependence on Russia. Putin won’t push Trump to stop supporting Israel.

      Putin likes oil and money…

      Lots of countries have an insane amount of oil and money, and for various reasons dislike Israel, and would absolutely love for America to cut support.

      The house of Saud along has 1.4 trillion. With a T

      That’s $1,400,000,000,000.

      Could make 1,400,000 different people millionaires. It’s an almost unfathomable amount of money

      But even tho Putin loves oil and money he’s also losing a war and is having difficulty getting weapons.

      Iran is a pretty big weapons manufacturer tho. And also dislikes Israel.

      Even tho Putin likely doesn’t have a terminal illness, he’s old as fuck, and more than anything he wants to reclaim the USSR and all it’s former territories. That’s as far as he’s planning, and he needs weapons, fuel, and money to do that.

      This is the point in the story where a lifetime villain starts cashing in all their chips for one last push.

      He ain’t just going to call it quits and retire quietly. Shits gonna get crazy, especially with Israel acting like this. Which is why they need reigned in by America cutting weapons “sales” and stop giving them the money to in the first place.

      And it’s important to remember they don’t need Russia to beat Israel, they need Russia to stop America from letting Israel start an all out war with the full force of America behind them.

      And Biden ain’t doing that. And if it’s trump and he cuts of Israel, Russia’s job is more than for .

      Putin can cash out. Or be forced into another front when he can’t handle one.
