“Pre-emptive” and “self-defense” are objectively true here.
Is it opposite day already? Better get my festive sash!
Hezbollah initiated its current conflict with Israel
According to the IDF and American intelligence who came to the conclusion within an hour arter the attack, have shown no proof to support the claim and both have a history of false conclusions and outright fabrications when it suits their pro-Israel narrative.
Israel is fighting defensively
Nope. There’s no defensive way to bomb civilian targets. That’s not how the word or indeed the world works.
destruction of Hezbollah assets prevents future attacks on Israel.
On the contrary: Hezbollah is a terrorist group.
Just like with Hamas in Gaza, every Lebanese civilian murdered by the IDF makes Hezbollah more influential and thus more powerful as the number of people radicalized by the murder of their loved ones rises.
You can’t bomb a terrorist organization out of existence any more than you can make your neighbors like you by killing their parents.
You might believe that Hezbollah is justified in attacking Israel
Nope. Not at all.
Israel is still the defender
Also no, though. Their actions and their unconditional US support is the number one cause of political instability and violence in the Middle East.
