Benjamin Netanyahu's appeal came as Israel expanded its ground invasion against Hezbollah.

During a video address directed at the people of Lebanon, Netanyahu said: "You have an opportunity to save Lebanon before it falls into the abyss of a long war that will lead to destruction and suffering like we see in Gaza.

    They’re fighting Arab-islamic nationalists who won’t ever give up their fight over Palestine.

    Morocco crushed the resistance in Western Sahara and took their territory. Now there’s peace.

    Azerbaijan crushed the resistance in Nagorno-Kharabach and took their territory. Now there’s peace.

    It’s not pretty, but sometimes it’s ‘better’ overall than letting an armed conflict drag on for eternity.

    edit: Also:

    An opinion poll published in mid-September by the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research (PSR), a think tank based in Ramallah and funded by Western donors, showed for the first time the majority of Gazans opposed the decision to attack. The poll, conducted in early September, found that 57% of people surveyed in the Gaza Strip said the decision to launch the offensive was incorrect, while just 39% said it was correct – down sharply from the previous poll in June.

      So in addition to advocating for genocide in Gaza, you’re going to advocate for ethnic cleansing of Armenians and the people of Western Sahara?

        I’m not advocating for any of those, but I understand you want to make it appear as such

        I’m saying that the most peaceful solution is for Hezbollah (and Hamas) to accept their loss and stop trying to ethnically cleanse the jews out of Palestine. Their sporadic cross-border attacks can only be stopped effectively with a crushing military response and all the death and destruction that comes with it

          Israel would have to occupy Tehran to stop the funding & arming of the terrorism that it is fighting. Do they roll their tanks through irak and syria to get there? And doesnt Iran have nukes by now?

          The only option for peace is a two state solution. All the sides have to start talking and stop fighting. And that starts with Israel.
