We won’t have a choice. If Israel gets overrun they’ll use the Samson directive and that must be avoided. Also AIPAC has almost total control now so they can get it to happen.

The purpose of the proxies is so Iran doesn’t have to get their hands dirty. They’ll avoid it but a better question is if Israel will try to bring them in.

religiously protestants separated much later because they rejected authority of the clergy and was a reformation to it, Shia separated much earlier because they respected the authority of the prophets family that Sunnis rejected and both developed alongside each other and maintain much more similarities. Historically the Shia Sunni split had much less violence, it was common for intermarriage and the populations to live peacefully together for most of their history. Relatively recently the tensions ratcheted up for various reasons. https://www.history.com/news/sunni-shia-divide-islam-muslim

An interesting interview excerpt about one of the only anti Zionist Israeli journalists thought process:

This is not true, both religiously and politically the dynamic is very different.

for most of history the Sunnis and Shias lived in peace, same with Jews in Palestine. Western ideas of nationalism and Zionism kicked ethnic conflicts into overdrive especially after they tried to import western state building after the Ottoman Empire fell.

But we can track that the extremism spawns from Israeli force ex. first intifada -> Hamas Siege of Beirut / Sabra and Shatila -> hezbollah Gaza 2008/2014 / great march of return -> Oct 7

I think the US should try to contain China non violently. Make deals with them to remove sanctions and make investments if they sign diplomatic agreements with their neighboring countries, try to strengthen the countries around them and increase their economic connections to each other, see if the countries can negotiate mutual demilitarization. If China gets involved in war with India, Taiwan, Japan or Korea it will be a disaster even if the US isn’t involved

He has been right way more than most of the “experts” on tv and in government

Hezbollah was formed out of the 1982 war. See the start of this video for an example. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=480ILf6LkIc The Palestinians also used to be one of the most secular populations in the Middle East. See 28:20 from this video where Ana Kasparian explains her ancestors experience with them. https://youtu.be/hyFm2JR2qN4?si=l1dcGlAt0qyHfr7F&t=1701 Hamas formed from radicalism against the occupation and first intifada. Extremism grows as a backlash to brutal conditions.

That is all injuries, not all severe injuries. They said only 500 were critical. Those aren’t all soldiers and Hezbollah can just recruit more, they already said they rejected thousands of applications because they couldn’t support any more. Hezbollah lost far more after the 2006 war and Syrian war but just expanded. The only way to take out a guerrilla force is to either remove their motivation for fighting or kill them faster than they can recruit

Scientific evidence of journaling finds it helps only if you analyze the things that make you unhappy and repeat and remember what makes you happy, analyzing what makes you happy or repeating what makes you unhappy makes you feel worse. For self therapy I recommend self therapy by Jay Early and when therapy doesn’t work by Shelly Young

It’ll be taken over by establishment republicans who appear more populist like Ron Desantis or Ted Cruz.

Former Israeli negotiator discusses the aftermath of the attack

Yes but then I linked 20-100+ different historical examples…

This isn’t new, if anything they introduced these tactics to the region. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zionist_political_violence#Irgun,_Haganah_and_Lehi_attackshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zionist_political_violence#Irgun,_Haganah_and_Lehi_attacks https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_David_Hotel_bombing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Israeli_assassinations

I think everyone is going to search every device with extreme paranoia now, so probably won’t happen, at least until someone figures out how to make tech blow up without any visibly detectable explosives that can’t be searched for easily.

Put that aside, this very possibly could cause a full scale war, which even if Israel wins means many Israelis being killed or injured. Why do that when Israel could just accept the Gaza ceasefire, as both the houthis and hezbollah said they’ll stop firing if that happens. Clearly everyone would better off than trading bombs and missiles, surgical or not. Also I haven’t seen solid proof it is as surgical as people are claiming. For one hezbollah isn’t just a military, it is a political party and has many other aspects of infrastructure, many of the pagers could be held by non combatants, also there were reports of cars and solar panels blowing up as well.

It doesn’t say she is the only death. She is the first, her family announced it shortly before hezbollah confirmed other deaths.
