Seastallion Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Why is Hezbollah targeting Israeli I don't know Because the most recent act was of violence by Israel against Arabs. It is simple, and fair, retaliation. It's a silly question really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dexterm Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 (edited) I think the article makes it crystal clear why Hezbollah is retaliating against Israel. OP,.. "Hezbollah says a bomb that targeted Israeli forces at the border with Lebanon was planted by a cell from the group named after a slain prominent militant. The Shia Islamist organisation said the device was planted by the “Sami Qantar” group." [named after the Hezbollah affiliate Israel assassinated a couple of weeks ago.] As I said at that time http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/880294-israel-versus-hezbollah-round-three/ If this is [israel Versus Hezbollah] round 3, I hope readers will recall who fired the first shot as usual. Why rattle the Hezbollah cage unnecessarily? What is Netanyahu up to? Edited January 5, 2016 by dexterm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses G. Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 (edited) The OP is supposed to be a professional news article. Pointing out that it looks like it was written by illiterate child an is full of incorrect information is fair game. Edited January 5, 2016 by Ulysses G.

It is simple, and fair, retaliation. It's a silly question really. LOL. Totally clueless. The Druze turncoat was loathed by the Druze community for his embrace of Hizbollah who have targeted Druze in the past. In case you forgot, the Shiite Hizbollah consider the Druze to be heretics and enemies of Islam. He was a murderer, no matter how much you may want to describe him as a wonderful man, and he was allied with the barbaric Assad regime. He had plenty of enemies in the region. If Israel was able to get him, they did so based upon information from the Druze community who wanted this traitor dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was being sarcastic,I know very well what the reasons are, But I am sure this article , like the scent of S#%t will soon attract the Israeli apologist flies, and after many years in this forum I am tired of swatting flies.

Andreas2 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 This Euronews reporter is really useless and a waste of (reading) time. Why are there tensions between Israel and Hezbollah? One more obvious reason than the reported one could be, that Israel is actively supporting the Syrian rebels, a. k. a. "moderate beheaders", which includes Al Qaeda and ISIS, which turn out to be enemies of Hezbollah. Isn't it interesting, that there are no incidents reported between ISIS and the Israeli Army? For readers, who don't get their information exclusively from Euronews, the answer is NO, of course. Report: Israel treating al-Qaida fighters wounded in Syria civil warIsraeli Military Admits to Supporting Al Qaeda and ISIS in SyriaIsrael acknowledges it is helping Syrian rebel fightersUN Reveals Israeli Links With Syrian RebelsUN Reveals Israel’s Support for ISIS I wonder (no, not really anymore), where this so-called Euronews "reporter" has his background information from. Scary, but unfortunately not surprising. PS: Thank you TVN for rating this article as news-worthy... Weird, to say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why rattle the Hezbollah cage unnecessarily? What is Netanyahu up to? Maybe he is trying to veer the media away from his wife's corruption allegations. Argentina's female president did that often when and brought up the Falklands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
