A post shared by Daizy Gedeon (@daizygedeon)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n@kimghattas explores the realities unfolding for Lebanon with @ianbremmer on @gzeromedia referring to a historical context where Lebanon has endured possibly second only to Palestine, the gravest and most destructive attacks by Israel over the past five decades.<\/p>\n

Ghattas clearly explains that Israel has attacked and invaded Lebanon many times with the intent to eliminate Hezbollah. Hezbollah today is stronger than it ever was. The zionist state’s intention of eliminating Hamas and its brutality is only strengthening Hamas and creating supporters and sympathisers all around the world.<\/p>\n

Israel is bent on killing and destrution. It has no ethical plan or policy and not intention to fulfil the Oslo Peace Accords and allow a two-state solution. Netanyahu himself has stated that.<\/p>\n

The West has aligned itself with a BRUTAL DICTATOR.<\/p>\n

English Script:
\nIan Bremmer: Lebanon is, of course, a very diverse population. It’s hardly just a group of people that support Hezbollah. It’s a very large Christian population, in addition. Is there a sensibility inside Lebanon that the focus should be on Hamas and the horrors of what they did on October 7th? Is there any among the Lebanese population support for alignment with what the Israeli government has been going through and has to respond to or not at all?<\/p>\n

Kim Ghattas: It’s very hard when you’re on this side of the border and you have lived through Israeli invasions and Israeli bombardment of this country to be able to continue to focus only on what happened on the 7th of October and not be entirely consumed by what has unfolded in Gaza. You know Ian, in 1982, Israel invaded Lebanon after an attempted assassination of an Israeli ambassador in London, and that invasion lasted over two months with a siege of Beirut, where the capital city was cut off of water, fuel, food. <\/p>\n

And 17,000 people died, we forget. But that was a devastating moment for Lebanon at the time. In many ways, indeed, it led to Hezbollah and that’s something that the Israelis need to think about today as they pound Gaza and say they want to eradicate Hamas. Well, back in 1982, they wanted to eradicate the PLO. And then in 2006, when they also got into a war with Hezbollah, because Hezbollah had kidnaped Israeli soldiers on the border, they said they wanted to eradicate Hezbollah. <\/p>\n

And yet here we are. Hezbollah is still incredibly strong, even stronger than in 2006. <\/p>\n
