-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

There are reports of large numbers of troops and tanks moving to the border, so it seems like they are really going to do it.
On paper, Hezbollah still has everything they need to defeat such an invasion. Either the Israeli leadership is fully detached from reality, or they have more cards up their sleeve.
Also, from what I've heard, it sounds like Israel will invade through Syria in an attempt to bypass defenses in Lebanon. But both Hezbollah and Syria have probably been preparing for that for a while now.
I feel like I'm being baited into an analogy
Opening up a second front, the fascist love that.
opening up a 3rd front in order to open up my 2nd front, in order to, uh... what was I doing again
How's the situation in Syria? I don't think they would appreciate Israel troops on their land
It may force a response from Assad that could end in an attept to liberate Golan heights, the syrian army is currently 130k strong who are experienced thanks to the civil war
They wouldn’t appreciate it, but the Syrian government’s capacity to respond to Israel has been severely hampered by the internal situation
A ground invasion against Syria will fix the Gazan and Lebanese fronts!
They are fully detached from reality. They have effectively opened up three fronts in the past month.
Let’s just assume full scale occupation is successful on all fronts, they’ve just welcomed a half dozen legitimate insurgencies that they have no chance of overcomingn in the long run. Zero. They are fucked.
