If not for these futile attacks on Israel, the world would be focused on the Palestinian occupation.

Rubbish. The israelis have been illegally occupying Palestine since 1967, there have been umpteen UN resolutions ( all ignored by israel ) and no country did anything that made a difference.

 

BTW they ain't futile, they are displacing thousands of israelis, and giving israelis a taste of what they give to Palestinians.

Israel's remarkable success so far against Hezbollah also represents success against enemies of the west, Iran and also Russia.

Yes we have pro Putin and pro Iran advocates here, so they won't be happy.

Israel can't tolerate as a tiny country their entire north being made uninhabitable due to Hezbollah.

We have a basic disagreement on the optimum strategy for saving the Palestinians. My belief is that stopping attacks on Israel by Hamas and Hezbollah, stopping any violence by Palestinians, and instead portraying the Palestinians as innocent victims would motivate world opinion to give Palestinians their independence.

 

This approach has never been tried.

 

Your strategy is to have Hamas and Hezbollah shoot rockets at Israel, and then a miracle happens and Israel is abandoned. Good luck with that.

Houthis in Yemen get some just rewards now from Israel......

 

Israel is attacking the Houthis in Yemen.

The Houthis have been attacking American ships for nearly a year.

Why hasn't the US fought back against this terror threat?

The fly in the ointment is the support Iran gives to anyone who attacks Israel.

 

Of course, Iran doesn't care about the Sunni Palestinians, they use the conflict to tamp down any domestic opposition, by changing the subject.

Israel mobilises more reserve troops, so it looks like Biden will be tearing out what is left of his hair as netanyahu ignores him in his push to expand the Gaza conflict into a full blown war in the ME

The military said it was mobilising three more battalions of reserve soldiers to serve across the country. It had already sent two brigades to northern Israel to prepare for a possible ground invasion.

How serious is Biden in his calls for restraint in the M E? One has to wonder as his actions do not support his words. Is this going to be Biden's very own war? Will the US taxpayer support yet another military adventure in the M E?

You've just not worked this out yet have you. The Gaza conflict was expanded by Hezbollah in Lebanon. Would you have preferred Israel to just ignore the 9000 Rockets Hezbollah has fired into Israel? Biden is also 100% behind Israel in their defense against the terrorists.
