Holy shit, Israel is so afraid of Hezbollah it was considering preemptively widening the war.

stories like this are always bullshit propaganda to make people think Biden’s being the ‘reasonable’ one in the room, reigning them back, and if they start a war well darn he tried so hard to moderate them.

you don’t want a wider war to break out? stop enthusiastically sending them weapons/money while they commit genocide, and put pressure on them to end this onslaught and end the occupation.

Alternately it’s a signal to Israel that we don’t want more of a mess down there.

I mean by your logic if we really disapprove of Israel attacking hezbollah then we should send that message by bombing the idf because anything else is obvious propaganda.

Considering next year is an election, if it was really propaganda it would say that Biden was considering a strike on hezbollah militants confirmed to have taken part in the attack. That would buy him 5 points easy.

They can “advise” whatever they want, but the only real question is the material support provided or withheld.

Also, NYTimes is paywalled. Please list an alternate source if you’re posting their links.

They really needed gymnastics to fit “Hezbollah Strike” into the headline.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

The effort by top American officials to head off an Israeli offensive on Hezbollah, reported in detail here for the first time, reveals anxieties by the Biden administration over the war planning of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his aides, even as the two governments strive to present a strong united front in public.

Those sensitive talks took place during Mr. Biden’s visit to Tel Aviv on Wednesday and during Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken’s long negotiations in Israel earlier this week.

Mr. Gallant told Mr. Blinken in a small meeting on Monday that he had advocated the previous week to launch a pre-emptive strike on Hezbollah, but was overruled by other officials, said a person familiar with the discussion.

By the time Mr. Blinken arrived in Tel Aviv for his first wartime visit, on Oct. 12, the American officials had become less anxious about such a strike, but were still concerned over potential Israeli overreaction to the ongoing Hezbollah rocket attacks.

The diplomats told the lawmakers this was one reason that Mr. Blinken’s meeting with Mr. Netanyahu and the Israeli war cabinet, which began Monday night, dragged on for seven and a half hours into Tuesday morning.

But Mr. Gallant surprised American diplomats with public remarks in which he praised the presence of U.S. warships in the Mediterranean — which could end up involved in a full-blown Israel-Hezbollah conflict — and said, “This will be a long war; the price will be high.”
