I assume it was just another market manipulation play?
And if it does hold, what is his next move to cause even more massive price shocks? They won't let prices revert to where they were - it's just normal now to have some shock event to blame for inflation.

But Israel is never going to reverse its invasion of Lebanon, its key to their Greater Israel[1] project. It's important to know that Israel is currently occupying parts of southern Lebanon [2]. Trump would have to force Israel to stop its illegal invasion, that's never going to happen.

Like common.
In Gaza they literally pulverized entire cities [1], making them uninhabitable, this isn't even really a war on terror by the western mainstream's standards, its a war on concrete paid for with american tax payer bombs and bulldozers. They are replicating that same exact playbook in Lebanon right now [2]. How morally bankrupt or completely misinformed do you have to be, to support this absolute barbarism at this point.

Obviously if there are terrorist attacks coming from a neighboring country then one would expect retaliation. You seem to be arguing terrorist attacks don't justify a response.

That's not unexpected when there are military tunnels under the cities. How else could they be eliminated?

The western war on terror also had plenty of casualties.[0]
That's a rather strange way of describing evacuation zones which Israel announces to reduce civilian casualties.
> They made millions homeless.
When one starts a war, loses and then refuses to surrender or negotiate a peace deal...that's not exactly surprising.
I am in shock you wrote this.
You're shocked I'm against killing civilians?
Those who want civilian casualties are terrorist organizations like Hamas.[0]

I keep coming back to the first gulf war when Bush encouraged the Shiites to ride up against Hussain and then left them out to dry.
Its what gets done to the Palestinians over and over. And the Jews aren't the enemies you need them to be because if they were the Palestinians would have been long scattered.
Israel started that war, not civilians. I hope you are not suggesting what it implies.
