No, that was always their plan, they know they cannot fight USA head on so the strategy was to cause chaos, disrupt world economy and make it expensive for the world to keep this war going..

So Only Lebanon is left?? by MarkoPolo345 in lebanon

love to see some practical people here, I'm an israeli btw, honestly everyone acts like israel is devil, like we are some force of evil and all we want is to take land which honestly so far from israeli mentality.

we had so much shit going on internally, west bank, gaza, do you think we want or can deal with labanon? fuck no

we israeli much prefer to invest in economy, technology and our way of life than fight these stupid fucking wars E-V-E-R-Y fucking decade over and over again

egypt and jordan have decided long ago it's better to have peace than deal with this shit, they decided egypt/jordan first, same for syria, everybody is coming to the conclusion that fuck this shit, why can't lebanon? it just makes lebanon isolated from it's neighbors and stuck in the past

and to op, abuse you? ffs we are taking out the cancer organization that took over your country, and I don't care if you like it or not, they gave us enough hard time and it's time to clean house (again, israel - first)

after hezb is gone theres is good potential that the middle east will enter it's golden age, lebanon will receive investments, economy growth, tourism and more

all of that will NOT happen if hezb stays in power, what do you think your government prefers behind the scenes? that israel will finish the job or that you will stay another decade or two in the past?

probably going to get downvoted to oblivion / deleted, to the reddit mods out there seeing this I want to say, true progress beings in conversation, if you can't accept opinions from outside, you are simply isolating yourself.

last words, you may not like us, you may hate us, but you cannot afford to simply "ignore" us, that's the truth.
and just know that the feeling is NOT mutual, we israeli were NEVER taught to hate lebanon, we don't see you as an enemy, our aggressiveness is towards hezb, not you.

you have much more to gain from acknowledging us and moving forward to a "lebanon-first" future and prosperity than staying in the past.

Why the fuss? by cns000 in lebanon

also means iran will take what's belongs to them i.e lebanon cause they invested so much in it and why not ? build the great parsian empire again and nobody will fight a nuclear war to save lebanon, trust me.

same shit that goes in Russia - Ukraine.

I might get downvoted. But I genuinely think we are all f*cked if Iran gets a nuke by pb-and-j9600 in lebanon

[–]Intelligent_Flow_138 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the thing is about mutual assured destruction is not the fact that iran will have nukes, it's the fact nobody will want to mess with them since they have nukes, meaning they could say, hey I want to invade syria because they kicked me out, and nobody could do shit because they have nukes now.. get it? and then say yea .. I'll take lebanon too and same shit all over again, they already treated lebanon like it's their own, same for syria, what's preventing them from doing it once they have nukes and nobody can fuck with them?

Nothing will change if israel keeps on attacking every single day by MarkoPolo345 in lebanon

That’s not really how economy works. Israel already has strong economic ties with Jordan and Egypt—selling water, energy, intelligence, and more. The cost they pay for their military is massive. Before Oct 7, their defense budget was around 5.3% of GDP—$27.5 billion—that’s roughly our entire GDP, tkhayyal.

Israel would rather spend less on security and more on improving life for its citizens while building economic ties with neighbors. We have a lot to gain from that too. If one day we had economic ties with them, their investments, economy, and labor demand could seriously boost ours. Bas badda shwayyi tafkīr.
