When Zionists complain about Lebanon,

This indeed is a good thing.

Means Lebanon is doing something right and good about the colonial thugs.

I think Richard Perle and Douglas Feith may have an answer to your question.

Iraq was a military threat (in purely physical terms, as opposed to geopolitical) to Israel, but not really much of a threat at all to the EU (vibrant trade partners, really) and no threat at all the United States. And whose soldiers were sent to invade, occupy and suppress Iraq? Whose sons and daughters were sent to die chasing WMDs that never existed?

The Israelis have deliberately used sonic booms over Gaza to terrorize the imprisoned population.

Actually Hezbollah has largely demilitarized below the Litany river (can you imagine them actually maintaining a military prescience their with thousands of UNIFIL troops running around?). But has Israel demilitarized the Galilee??? Nope. Even if Hezbollah maintains a small presecnse south of the Galilee you cannot even compare that violation to the dozens of UN violations Israel violates on a daily basis against the Lebanese people.

I also love how Israel is allowed to fortify its borders but the “lesser peoples” are supposed to just expose themselves to the Israeli military.

“Do you think that Hezbollah has demilitarized below the Litani per the same resolution 1701?”

Which part of Israeli is beloe the Litani Witty?

Israel has only ever been able to kill civilians efficiently and to scare children. A nation of fucking cowards.

A thought on the issue of making loud bangs. The occasional report on Hebron mentions that there is little visible damage from the qassams. Because it gets repaired quickly and because they don’t do all that much damage. But there’s also what happens in people’s heads that doesn’t just go away. To some extent supersonic overflights achieve the same psychological effect(obviously it depends how far away you are) – but they don’t even register in the press.

This is what Israel means by “deterrence,” to terrorize weaker countries so they fear to defend themselves against aggression. The “right to defend itself” is an Israeli monopoly.

And as you point out, Israel lies as a matter of policy.
