Massive Israeli air strikes on residential towns in southern and eastern Lebanon killed at least 274 people on Monday, in what has been Lebanon’s bloodiest day for decades.

At least 21 children, 39 women and two emergency responders were among the dead, Lebanon’s health minister said, adding that more than 1,024 others were wounded.

In response to the bombardment, Hezbollah fired rockets at military targets in northern Israel and illegal settlements in the occupied West Bank.

Over the weekend, an Israeli minister called for the “Shia enemy population” of south Lebanon to be expelled and a buffer zone created on the border.

Well Joe Biden isn’t just watching, he is supplying the bombs. He could literally stop aiding the genocide anytime

That’s not true. Some are funding and sending weapons to Israel! /s

The zionazis and their tinpot shit stain dictator netanyahoo want a regional war. Netanyahoo wants war because it helps him escape his legal issues at home, and his ape shit terrorist settlers want war because they can steal more land.

Middle eastern countries should band together and blunt this insanity, but won’t because most of them are backwater dictatorships or oil companies disguised as governments. The rest care a lot about how you worship muhammad and won’t work with their neighbors because they don’t love muhhammad the right way. Fucking nightmare.

Also time for US/partners to stop funding genocide. Funny how israel “defense” ministers are making a bunch of comments on israels actions while their fighting looks a lot like offensive / genocide operations.

I like how Hezbollah specifies they're only firing on military personnel and illegal civilians.

Imagine these terrorists doing this in your state.

Blowing up people’s faces at the grocery store. Hijacking your communications and commanding you to flee your home. Bombing your neighborhood and murdering your neighbors, family, self…

The double standards of racism and genocide could only be possible with an empire founded on racism and genocide.
