Raad criticizes Lebanese 'going to the beach and nightclub as the South is under attack', causing a stir ( today.lorientlejour.com )

Hezbollah MP and parliamentary bloc leader Mohammad Raad sparked controversy on social media when he called some Lebanese "reckless" and accused them of caring only about their comfort and relaxation, criticizing them for "going to the beach and nightclubs while the south is under attack."...

Billy OP ,

I highly doubt it. But one can hope.

They also know what collaborating with the Nazis is like.

Nazi collaborator monuments in Armenia

How Armenia’s glorification of a Nazi collaborator has gone unnoticed

So I don't think Armenia's decision will have much of an effect. Maybe other countries.

Billy , (edited )

How you managed to draw this conclusion from your previous statement, is a mystery to me.

A state that is currently glorifying Nazi collaborators will automatically be dismissed as hostile to Jews and to Israel. Any action of theirs in related matters is therefore irrelevant.
Unless they have a different goal. Like getting closer to states like Iran.

And since you mentioned Nazi collaborations, I'll say the following. I noticed that the sources you provided the one is Zionist and the other Polish, and both collaborated with Nazis for sure.

How is that relevant to news sources?
I was pointing out that Armenia is currently glorifying a Nazi collaborator, building statues of him and calling him a hero. Not in the past.

Faced with Nasrallah's threats, Cyprus moderates, Lebanon's political class takes offense ( today.lorientlejour.com )

For journalist Tony Boulos, "Hezbollah now threatens international security." "Does Nasrallah know that Cyprus is home to thousands of Lebanese he himself pushed to emigrate? Does he know that hundreds of Lebanese businessmen have set up offices on the island after he caused the [economic] downfall of Lebanon?" wrote the...

Billy OP ,

How is this "pro-IDF"?
I thought people here aren't pro-Hamas?

This whole week I posted.. 1 article about Hamas. Truly hustling.

"Un deuxième mineur aurait confié aux policiers avoir frappé la jeune fille au motif qu’elle aurait eu de mauvaises paroles à propos de la Palestine."

Plenty of articles like those here.
And plenty of people denying there's any rise in hatred and violence towards Jews.

Billy OP , (edited )

The "Plenty of articles like those here." was a reply to the first part of your post.

Yeah, it's receiving coverage because there has been a serious spike in hatred and violence specifically towards Jews since the 7th of October. Not just in France.

And the rape was specifically because she's a Jew. Like the other recent case of a French Jewish woman who was raped specifically because she's a Jew.

Billy OP ,

How is the link tenuous?
You could write the same thing about neo-nazi violence.
There's a clear issue here.

The reality is that this is a part of a global spike of cases against Jews since the 7th of October, who are targeted because they are Jews.
It could've been someone else. Another Jew. Like the other French Jewish woman who was raped because she's a Jew and was done as "revenge" in the eyes of the perpetrator.

Billy OP ,

Yeap. Although this "trend" isn't very new.
Antisemites calling all Jews, Zionists, was done from even before the founding of the state of Israel. One example from before its founding, is of Muhammad Rashid Rida.

A politician who got the 36th position in the Likud list 10 years ago.
The party he founded after that didn't get even 1 mandate.

The "original zionists" were socialist and communists who tried to do things in the way of cooperation and peace, and were a defensive group.
The offensive groups splintered off the original one after Arab riots and massacres of Jews.

Who is the IDF general who ordered tank fire on a kibbutz home with 13 hostages inside? ( www.haaretz.com )

Until she was taken out of the house, Porat identified nine living hostages. She wasn't a witness to the close-range shooting of any of the hostages, or to any of them being hit in the exchange of fire. "I didn't see anyone execute anyone," she says. "I didn't see a body." That is compatible with what Hadas Dagan said – she...

"Staff from the Israel Antiquities Authority aided in the investigation of the incident in Be'eri, and Haaretz received the IAA's findings. The archaeologists divided the structure into 13 sectors and each one was excavated, and its remains carefully screened, by a team that also included soldiers, in an effort to find body parts. Remnants of the munitions that were fired were examined by a ballistics expert.

The IAA inquiry ruled out the claim that the firing of the second shell "ended the incident" by bringing about the death of the hostages. Concentrations of bodily remains were found in two places – in the kitchen/dining corner and the living room. The shell apparently struck the attic, which was separated from the living area below by a concrete ceiling. According to the archaeologists' investigation, the ceiling remained intact, and therefore "the shrapnel did not penetrate the kitchen through the ceiling." In both arenas there were casings from a Kalashnikov rifle, which the terrorists used. Accordingly, the IAA's conclusions are that "the firing was executed from inside the structure" and that "the area in which human remains were found was not damaged by outside fire." "

Sporadic? They've been bombing Israel daily since the 8th of October. Some of those leading to fires all over the north of Israel.
Just yesterday they launched over 200 rockets plus drones.

Hezbollah has already started a war with Israel.

Water crisis in Al-Hasakah | Tens of civilians, mostly children, arrive in hospitals after having consumed unpotable water ( www.syriahr.com )

This coincides with the deteriorating water crisis in Al-Hasakah city in light of the frequent interruption of pumping water from Allouk water station since Turkish forces took control of Ras Al-Ain city.

You didn't even need to use that conflict as an example. Most Israelis are brown.

Netanyahu hoped Hamas would reject Israel's offer. When it didn't, he turned to sabotage ( www.haaretz.com )

Israel's criminal defendant prime minister, more focused on saving his incompetent far-right government than saving the hostages who have spent seven months trapped in Gaza, is doing everything he can to torpedo Israel's last and best chance at bringing the hostages home...

Billy ,

plenty of israelis criticize israel all the time.
the existance of media groups like haaretz and 972 in israel, which criticize israel all the time are a good example.
the massive protests are another.

Billy ,

fair enough.
added some, will add more later.

Billy ,

a case of an anti-semitic doctor who praises terrorists and flouts a visa ban, isn't enough to declare some of the most democratic countries in the world "not democratic".
here's one of the articles by him in arabic praising a terrorist who murdered a rabbi.
