At least 11 people injured after projectiles reportedly fired from Lebanon into Israel | CNN

From the photos on twitter, it looks like it hit the only soccer field in town, landing between the field and the playground next to it. Hezbollah first claimed the attack, but now that there are 10 kids dead, and another several dozen kids injured they’ve backpedaled on it.

Uh-oh, time to kill 15,000 more civilians

Oh you try to exterminate an entire ethnic group and they refuse to die peacefully, what ignominy

Sorry, kids. It looks like you were born in the wrong country to deserve any sympathy or basic human decency.

What a monster.

That’s a straw man though. They didn’t say anything about the children. There’s children all over in the region being killed for no good reason. But people definitely don’t have a reason to have sympathy for the state of Israel on this as a whole.

Foni ,

Do you say the same thing when bombs fall on Palestinian hospitals?? I’m not happy about this, but I’m not happy about killing another 50,000 innocent people to avenge them.

Terrible. They have been raining down rockets in Israel since Oct. 8 and no one talks about it. There are 200,000 internally displaced Israelis and sometimes it feels like no one cares.

Both the escalation on the southern Lebanon border and the resulting displacement have received a lot of media coverage. Hezbollah has kept saying that this is to keep IDF from being all focused on Gaza and that they would stop if a ceasefire is reached. Until about three month ago both Israel and Hezbollah have been trying to keep the level of escalation low.

This has changes as Israel attacked Beirut and threatened to turn it into “another Gaza” and boasting about how they could destroy all of Lebanon. Netanyahus government has aimed to escalate the war there, to draw in the US and other western allies.

Now whether we will see the full escalation now remains to be seen. Hezbollah is a whole different league compared to Hamas in terms of weapons and fighters.

What Beirut attack? I didn’t hear about that.

Tryptaminev ,

i’m sorry. The attack on Beirut already happened in January. apnews.com/…/lebanon-beirut-explosion-suburbs-hez…

I must have mixed it up with the attack on Damascus in April.

The threat of turning Leba non into another Gaza also was from that time www.aa.com.tr/en/middle-east/…/3103473

Since then the rethoric has picked up significantly over the past months, and again with extensive international coverage of a potential escalation into Lebanon.

Hardly an “attack on Beirut.” According to this it was an attack on a Hamas commander near Beirut.

How is Hezbollah attacking Israel ‘to keep them busy’ supposed to keep things from escalating?

Tryptaminev ,

The level of engagement remained on the low and the “unwritten rules of engagement” like keeping things within a few kilometers of the border used to be upheld by both IDF and Hezbollah

Timii ,

Terrorist logic. Israel exists so everything they do is O-Tay

TimeNaan ,

That’s terrible but have you thought that the policies of your own state could be the root cause of it?

Timii ,

How dare they exist!

geneva_convenience ,

Reports say hezbollah has never claimed this attack, when did they claim it? Normally when hezbollah strikes somewhere they always take credit.

It was also in an area with a mostly druze arab population which does not serve in the idf. Hezbollah has no reason to strike there.

This has many indications of a false flag.

Billy ,

Druze serve in the IDF.

THIS attack JUSTIFIES killing 100000 MORE Children!
