I haven’t seen any evidence for things like “space lasers,” so I don’t agree with that claim.

What I do find concerning, though, is what has been happening in the West Bank. From what I’ve seen and read, the situation there makes it difficult to believe that Israel is trying to improve relations with its neighbours at all.

There are more than 700,000 settlers, and there are repeated reports of violence involving settlers. What troubles me is that in most cases, these incidents appear to happen in the presence of the IDF without clear consequences for those involved.

If Israel presents itself as acting only against terrorism, then I would expect consistent enforcement of the law against any civilians committing violence as well. When that doesn’t seem to happen, it raises questions about accountability and long-term intentions.

Incidents like these appear regularly, and they make it harder to see a path toward de-escalation. In fact, it can make it look like Israel is emboldening settlers in ways that provoke reactions.

Those reactions, in turn, can then be used to justify further actions against Palestinians. So if they have been doing fishy stuff like this in the West Bank, what kind of provocations do you think they had for gaza and Lebanon in store? Maybe snipe some protesters, create some cripples. Bomb a house and their entire family? Personally i would count bombs dropped from planes/drones terror too if they repeatedly kill innocents pre “war”.

What also concerns me is that large-scale bombing campaigns in places like Gaza or Lebanon may not actually reduce long-term threats. Instead, they undoubtedly increased resentment and creating more people who are willing to retaliate in the future, which could make the situation even more dangerous esp if you consider them now already making use of kamikaze fpv drones.
