@Metal-Brain saidLebanon was once a happy prosperous country, and were friendly with the Jews. Beirut was referred to as the Paris of the Mediterranean. There was no war, and it was a prosperous thriving Christian country. That is until Hezbollah moved in. Islam is an evil crooked religion that destroys people. Since then Lebanon has attacked Israel and fired thousands of rockets into civilian areas.

The lesson here is if you dont want Israel to take over your country then do not attack them.
@Rajk999 saidWhy was Hezbollah founded (it didn't bloody move in)?

Oh. Because of the Israeli invasion of Lebanon in 1982.
Yes. That's right.
Maybe the Sabra and Shatila massacres of Palestinians and Lebanese Shias had something to do with it? What you say?
Oh. That was the phalangists... yeah... and who over saw it and gave them the room to do as they pleased?
Once again you fail to see action and reaction in its proper context.

Israel attacked Lebanon 1982 because the PLO was using Lebanon as a base from which to attack Israel. The PLO also attempted an assassination of the Israeli Ambassador to the UK, around this time. The stated objective of the operation was to put the communities of northern Israel out of reach of the terrorists in southern Lebanon by pushing the latter 40 km to the north.
On July 10, 1981, the PLO began shelling the north of Israel with Katyusha rockets and 130 mm artillery shells. The Israeli Air Force (IAF) retaliated with air raids, but failed to put a final end to these attacks. On July 17, the IAF launched a large-scale raid against PLO buildings in the center of Beirut. The terrorist organization then intensified its bombardments on the communities in the north of the country, forcing thousands of Israeli citizens to move southward or to live in shelters for several days. In order to curb the escalation of violence, US envoy Philip Habib negotiated a ceasefire between the two camps on July 24, 1981. From July 1981 to June 1982, the Israeli-Lebanese border was quiet.

And why was the PLO shelling Israel from Lebanon?
Oh… mhmmm… yeah…
Racist moron.
@shavixmir saidAre you really that stupid? Israel was at peace with Lebanon in the 70s. It was the PLO terrorists that came into Lebanon and terrorised the northern part of Israel. This is how the war started.

Apparently a lot of Jews are mentally ill. That explains the irrational behavior.
Variations of the DNST3 gene make Ashkenazi Jews 40 percent more likely to develop schizophrenia and similar diseases.

@Rajk999 saidIs that why Israel funded Hamas? There is a pattern of Israel creating their own problems and blaming others to invade and steal land. Israel funded Hamas because they didn't like the PLO.

So tell us oh maven of all things political, what would have happened in Gaza if Israel had NOT given money there?
@sonhouse saidYou are asking me what would happen if Israel had not given money to a terrorist organization that wanted to destroy Israel?

Maybe there would have been a Palestinian state, you know, a 2 state solution. That is why Israel funded Hamas. To prevent the PLO from getting a 2 state solution. Israel funded their enemy to divide another enemy. Now they are complaining about the blow back from funding their enemy.
Why should anybody feel sorry for Israel for getting attacked by the enemy they funded? In this case victim blaming is completely justified. Israel brought it on themselves. It was like giving a gun to someone that wants to kill you.
Should I feel sorry for someone that used such poor judgement?
