CNN’s Diamond: Israel’s ‘Escalations’ ‘Have Prompted Hezbollah’ to Attack More
Breitbart ^ | 09/28/2024 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 09/28/2024 7:22:55 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Friday’s broadcast of CNN International’s “First Move,” CNN Jerusalem Correspondent Jeremy Diamond stated that “the escalations we’ve seen over the course of the last week and a half have prompted Hezbollah to go further than they have before,” and the strike against Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah is “the latest in a series of escalations that we have seen the Israeli military and its government carry out over the course of the last week and a half.”

Diamond said that the Nasrallah strike “marks just the latest in a series of escalations that we have seen the Israeli military and its government carry out over the course of the last week and a half. And that’s because the Israeli government has really, clearly, chosen and articulated this strategy of continuing to escalate this war with Hezbollah to the point where we are now seeing this very real risk of things escalating much, much more significantly. So far, we have seen Hezbollah fire some 65 rockets into northern Israel in the aftermath of that very significant strike in Beirut. But, if, indeed, this strike was targeting Hassan Nasrallah, if he was injured, if he was killed, I think you are going to expect to see a very, very significant response from Hezbollah. And even just the death toll alone from this strike, which is only just starting to come in, but given that several buildings in that area appear to have been flattened, it will be very significant. That, in and of itself, I think, will likely prompt a very significant retaliatory response from Hezbollah. We will see how that all unfolds.”

Who will be attacking? The remaining untrained little kids and women who still have breath and fingers? ;)

I sure hope this is a turning point; I want to see some Hezbollah surrender flags waiving!

““the escalations we’ve seen over the course of the last week and a half have prompted Hezbollah to go further than they have before””

Escalations? I guess that’s what happened after Midway, Okinawa, Iwo Jima, Guadalcanal....If only we hadn’t fought the Japanese, they would have left the US alone?

I know - the battles aren’t in order so don’t criticize...

They will only help identify the new guy and their weapons storage. Soon they will be down to shooting off fireworks. It’s almost to the point where the Lebanese people can take their country back. We will soon know if it’s true the people hate Hezbollah

Remember all the media condemning the following:

The attacks began early on 7 October with a barrage of at least 4,300 rockets launched against Israel[30][31][32] and vehicle-transported and powered paraglider incursions into Israel.[33][34] Hamas fighters breached the Gaza–Israel barrier, attacking military bases and massacring civilians in 21 communities, including Be'eri, Kfar Aza, Nir Oz, Netiv Haasara, and Alumim. According to an IDF report that revised the estimate on the number of attackers, 6000 Gazans breached the border in 119 places and broke into Israel, including 3,800 from the "elite Nukhba forces" and 2,200 civilians and other militants.[35][30][31] Additionally, the IDF report estimated 1,000 Gazans fired rockets from the Gaza Strip, bringing the total number of participants on Hamas's side to 7,000.[35][30][31]

In total, 1,139 people were killed:[j] 695 Israeli civilians (including 38 children),[40] 71 foreign nationals, and 373 members of the security forces.[k][41] 364 civilians were killed and many more wounded while attending the Nova music festival.[42][43] At least 14 Israeli civilians were killed by the IDF's use of the Hannibal Directive.[44] About 250 Israeli civilians and soldiers were taken as hostages to the Gaza Strip, alive or dead, and including 30 children, with the stated goal to force Israel to exchange them for imprisoned Palestinians, including women and children.[32][45][46] Dozens of cases of rape and sexual assault reportedly occurred, but Hamas officials denied the involvement of their fighters.[47]

An ignorant statement from an ignorant person. What barbarity is left to inflict on Israel. Maybe the IDF is the real hezbollah (army of G-d).

Yah, do not say anything you expect me to listen to that is not prefaced (EVERYTIME) with something like: “I condemn hamas as it supporters, but......”

If you do not say that, STFU.

I guess HezNObollahs and HAMass will be more brutal and warlike in the future.
I notice there is a lot of statements from these politicians about how Israel shouldn’t do this or that, but no real attempts to stop them. So what’s with that? It’s as if they secretly want Israel to just about obliterate the two (H&H) but not invite any retribution from (H&H)
For sure, other “palestinian” groups will emerge but they will have different leadership.
