World leaders sound alarm as Israel pummels Hezbollah for second day
The Hill ^ | 09/24/2024 | Ellen Mitchell -

Posted on 09/24/2024 1:07:15 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

World leaders at the United Nation’s General Assembly on Tuesday urged Israel and Hezbollah to step back from the brink of all-out war after the death toll from Israeli airstrikes over two days rose to at least 569 people, including 50 children and 94 women, the deadliest such barrage in Lebanon in nearly two decades.

The airstrikes, which Israel says are targeting Hezbollah militants in eastern and southern Lebanon, on Monday alone also injured 1,835 people, Lebanese health authorities said Tuesday.

Israel’s military does not appear to be letting up in the airstrikes, declaring it will do “whatever is necessary” to push Hezbollah away from its border with Lebanon, so that Israelis can return to their homes in the region. Though Israel and Hezbollah have been trading strikes since the Israel-Hamas war began in Gaza last year, this week’s barrage threatens to push the region into a larger conflict, with world leaders pleading for a solution.

Speaking to the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday, President Biden warned against a “full-scale war” in Lebanon, urging a diplomatic solution.

A model of peaceful coexistence. Beirut the “Paris of the Middle East.” Not good enough for the Muslims, who prefer domination and misery


Proving there is no such thing as”peaceful coexistence” with muslims, only an illusion until your back is turned, then comes the knife.

They could end up with the short end of the stick if they keep it up. Dumbassery all around! Where was the hue and cry 10/7/2023?

They need to finish in Gaza, rather than expanding


They have no choice - there is also the West Bank front.

the Hesbians and Hamass have been throwing rocks at Jews for so long, one would think that they could produce at least one minor league baseball player.


Consolation prize: they invented the cell phone bomb.

Well, they can step to the plate and get a little of the heat Bibi is dishing out. Free pagers in the lobby by the white phone.

When Hezbollah was pummeling Israel, they were fine with it. How dare Israel fight back.

Why are they surprised? The massacres of Israeli citizens were accompanied by a great deal of patience, which is at an end.

So America’s response to Pearl Harbor and the English response to Germany was wrong according to these misfits?

I have a dream that one day world leaders will decry Muslims wanting to inflict death on anything that moves.

Where have the world leaders been while Hezbollah launched rockets into Israel for the last 11 months?

Do FO and die, “world leaders”.

The UN can take a long walk off a short pier and go to the devil from which it was spawned. LORD, please protect Israel and reveal yourself to them. Confound the enemy, I pray. Protect our country from the wiles of the enemy and the machinations of his minions in our land, in the mighty Name of Jesus, amen.

You are such a tired old queer.

BTW, userscripts are monkeys full of RATs, and I truly doubt you could install toilet paper, but given that you had someone do it for you, you do you and give away your personal information. Schadenfreude.

It’s hezballess’ FAFO moment.

Israel is implementing the Find Out part right now, and will surely let you know when they are quite done.

Who are these so-called “world leaders”? These bums are all compromised in one way or another. Their pathetic wailing makes me think that they are frightened for their futures as people around the world wake up to their continuing crimes against humanity. Hopefully, they all will experience Justice.

These so called world leaders need to STFU and let Israel to their thing.

Wholeheartedly agree.
