  1. Israel plans to conquer and expand into Lebanon and beyond with the help of the Biden regime. The West Bank and Gaza are just the beginning. Arab countries better get a clue.

  2. Israel has the right to defend itself using the American Taxpayers money 😊

  3. lmao only thing the iof can fight is kids

  4. Throughout history small country Israel has been encounter many attacks from Roman, old Persian, Turks, Arabs , now Hamas, Hezbollah – Iran. The reason is jealousy toward Jews and their God.

  5. Consider the impact on you and your families if every nation adopts Israel's conduct. It's genuinely baffling that some still hesitate to unequivocally label it for what it is.

  6. Balestine is not a country . Never was.
    Balestinians do not exist.
    If someone speaks about the state of Balestine ( Gazans cannot pronounced P and Arabic alphabet does not have the letter P) – what is it ?
    Is it a kingdom?
    Is it a republic?
    Is it a caliphate?
    Is it an emirate?
    Democracy? Totality?
    Does Balestine have a regular government? Any state structure?
    Who are their famous writers? Composers? Scientists? Poets? Musicians? How many Nobel price holders? ( Arafat was an Egyptian from Cairo).
    Jews hold 234 Nobel prices out of 960. What Balestinians did for civilization?

  8. US need to be kicked out of Iraq illegal occupation and stealing iraqi oil.

  9. Let Israel the sole victory at this conflict. Let every person know all relevant detail thereof, for the outcome of this conflict affects Creation. Most of all, let none who oppose Him escape Justice. Amen.

  11. #ISRAEL Boycott
    Free Palestine 🇵🇸 #ISRAEL Boycott
    Free Palestine 🇵🇸

  12. Israel does whatever it wants anyways. It doesn't hav enough resources for a multifront war. It can threaten all it wants. No one cares or is afraid of them.

  13. A fact that Westerners do not know,Lebanon was once the most beautiful country in the Middle East. It was a country established as a haven for Christians. Called 'The Paris of the Middle East' 60 years ago, it was a destination for skiing and business. But ever since extreme Islam took over, everything started to collapse. It's very easy to lose a country.

  14. Netanyahu insists on killing innocent people, including children, and if it were not for the support that Biden provides him, this war would not have been started from the beginning.

    Stop the war, and to Mr. Biden, to the American people and the peoples of the world, this support is a cover for Netanyahu’s crimes, the killing of children, and the bombing and killing of the people of Gaza

  15. Does the Israeli government have a death wish?

  16. God bless the great nation of Israel ❤❤❤

  17. FREEDOM OF PALESTINE FROM HAMAS TERRORISTS

  18. There is a major problem with the fictitious "Rules Based Order." Credibility is gone.

  19. No zeonist state it palestian state

  20. Who are the.terorist Acupiers or freedom fighter's? Thats palestian land not Zeonist

  21. Why have you and the terrorists whom own your news network been saying this for weeks? They're not exactly known for their honesty and restraint.

  22. Why are Israel saying this?
    Because hizbollah-iran have been firing rockets into Israel…funny that Israel would want to respond

  23. Those wishing to become shahid will find it granted !

  24. STOP SUPPORTING ISRAEL! THEY WANT TO TAKE THE US DOWN WITH IT!

  25. This is expansionism This isn’t about Hamas or anything else

  26. Hezbollah's military power is designed for one purpose only, to continually cross the border of a sovereign nation (Israel), either by terrorist infiltration or by shooting rockets and missiles. As with many terrorist organizations in the Middle East, Hezbollah receives financial, military, and logistical support from IRAN, which has been a critical factor in increasing its military capabilities.

    So why is Hezbollah involved in the Gaza war? Why is Hezbollah shooting rockets at Israeli towns and infiltrating a sovereign border (Israel) and trying to kill civilians?

    Did Israel wake up one day last week and just shoot a missile at Hezbollah? Did Israel insult Hezbollah Muslims? Did the Israeli military cross the Lebanon border and kill some civilians and now Hezbollah is upset? Has the American main street newspapers or TV news told the American public why the terrorist organization Hezbollah is crossing the border and shooting rockets at Israeli border towns? The answer to the last four questions is no, no, no, and no.

    The answer comes from Hezbollah. For Hezbollah, heating up the Lebanon-Israel border has a clear purpose. Naim Qassem, who is the leader of Hezbollah in Lebanon, said: “We are trying to weaken the Israeli enemy and let them know that we are ready.”

    He recently said he did not want war with Israel, but is still receiving advanced missiles with precision guidance systems from IRAN. An advanced missile launched from the capital of Lebanon (Beirut) to the capital of Israel (Jerusalem) would take between 6-8 minutes. This action would definitely cause an expanded Middle East war.

    Basically, Hezbollah has invaded Israel with terrorist infiltrators and with missiles and rockets. Israel is responding to this military force. Why has the United Nations not condemned the actions of Hezbollah and the Lebanon government for allowing this to happen. Why is a terrorist group allowed to invade another sovereign nation in the United Nations and kill their citizens without consequences?

    Hezbollah, like Hamas, are evil terrorist organizations created by Iran. Again, IRAN escapes the consequences of its actions that supported these “jihad” wartime actions.

    Hezbollah, like Hamas, is a non-state entity. They may be embedded in the government but are not a recognized government by the world. They use threats of violence to instill fear, and to achieve political, religious, and ideological goals aligned with IRAN.

    So the “Hamas TERRORISTS group” has a brother, the “Hezbollah TERRORISTS group”. The “FATHER of these two “TERRORISTS groups” is IRAN who has been supporting Hamas and Hezbollah with basic and advanced military equipment and missiles, not for defensive purposes, but aimed at Israel for destruction and annihilation.

    “FREE PALESTINE FROM THE HAMAS TERRORIST!” “A PROXY OR MILITARY TERRORIST ORGANIZATION FOR IRAN'S SUPREME RELIGIOUS LEADER (not the Iranian people) FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF ISRAEL”. HAMAS TERRORISTS – FREE THE HOSTAGES.

  27. The United States breaks its own laws (Leahy Law and Symington Amendment) to give billions in military aid to an apartheid state running frequent budget surpluses. American aid to Israel is illegal, immoral and unnecessary.

  28. Good luck with that Israel…

  29. Israel has to deal with all evils terrors, stand with Israel 🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱❤️❤️❤️❤️

  30. The US should just save time and let us pay our TAXES straight to Israel and skip the IRS 🙄

  31. A fact that the world should know
    The State of Israel is a peace-loving state that takes tax money from its people and gives it to the Palestinians and gives them free fuel, gas, electricity and water. The Palestinian people live a better life than the people of the region, but unfortunately Hamas and its terrorist arms take this money and build tunnels in it under hospitals to kill innocent people. All this devastation and destruction is caused by Hamas, Iran and their terrorist arms.

  32. I see a caged animal surrounded by people on all sides. It is in rage. It bares its teeth, frothing at the mouth, it growls, it charges at people from one side to the other, threatening to bite anyone who is silly enough to come within reach. It rattles it cage, it jumps up and down. It must be rather tiring to be that rabid wild animal since 1947 !!!

  33. Vowed to retaliate. Yeah it’s going to be so weak.

  34. IDF/SS US MUST STOP SUPPORTING ISRAEL GENOCIDE

  35. Israeli will start a war with Lebanon and then the world will ask for ceasefire 🤦🏻‍♀️ and then Lebanon will cry for the world for ceasefire just remember how start the war with Lebanon Israel trying so hard not to start a war there but they keep launching missiles in to Israel

  36. Bring on the New Year "fireworks"
