Israel-Hezbollah War Is Inevitable? - Good Times Bad Times
IDF approves Lebanon operation plans. No place in Israel would be safe, in war there will be no rules and no red lines. Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrala, "62% of Jewish Israelis support an attack on Hezbollah in Lebanon with full force."
The issue is that Hezbollah is considered the most powerful non-state actor in the world with an arsenal of missiles estimated at between 120,000 to even half a million missiles, mainly sponsored by the Islamic Republic of Iran. On July 28th several of these rockets fell on the town of Majdal Shams in the Israeli occupied Golan Heights killing 12 young Israelis, further exacerbating already tense relations. Observing the actions of both sides one gets the impression that we are on an inevitable path to war.
