🇱🇧🇮🇱 - Hezbollah suffered a devastating blow today, thanks to the entirety of the Axis of Resistance ignoring the reality of Israel's ambitions.

Today should not have surprised them, and they likely won't even retaliate for today in an appropriate manner.

🇸🇾🇱🇧🇮🇱⚡- Anti-Assad rebel groups under the Syrian Salvation Government in Idlib celebrate the pager explosions in Lebanon.

🇱🇧🇮🇱 - Israel has been stacking troops and equipment on the northern border for the last 10 months. Hezbollah has done next to nothing to scale this back, deal with it preemptively, or establish reliable deterrence with Israel at all. In short- Hezbollah has ignored the realities of Israel's ambitions, which is to destroy all of their neighboring threats, in one war.

Hezbollah has had ample time to prepare defenses for something like today. They should have, and likely did know that Israel was planning on moving the frontline to the north. They clearly ignored all possible threats and chose to pretend they were king of the hill.

Today, Israel carried out a grotesque and inhumane violation of not just Lebanon's sovereignty, but the dignity of humankind. Blowing up pagers and risking tens of thousands of civilians is something Israel is more than familiar with doing, but Hezbollah dug its head in the sand and pretended like everything was okay.

Today's attacks in Lebanon have crippled Hezbollah- not entirely, but definitely for a time. Hundreds, if not thousands of fighters are missing fingers, limbs, and eyesight. Those injured today will likely never go back to combat. Hospitals are now packed full of injured innocents, and Hezbollah will never attack Israel when their communications are crippled and their hospitals filled.

Hezbollah brought this on themselves. Resisting Israel with "strong words of condemnation" and miniscule, pussyfooted attacks is not enough to keep Israel in check. In fact, it energized Israel and made them push the envelope even further.

Perhaps the Axis of Resistance wakes up to the reality of their ineptitude, inaction, and weakness- but they likely won't. Eternal third world mindset.

🇱🇧🇮🇱 - Disclaimer: We are not pro-Israel. But we aren't dishonest either.

🇱🇧🇮🇱 - For our Middle Eastern and Muslim viewers, it should rock you to the core that Americans and Europeans are more hostile to Israel than you are. At this point, a nationalist getting elected president of the United States is a bigger threat to the safety of Israel than Iran or Hezbollah ever will be.

🇰🇵🇰🇷⚡- "North Korea has just launched several short-range ballistic missiles," -Yonhap, South Korean media.

🇱🇧🇮🇱 - One last thing- none of this is to say Hezbollah is down and defeated. But it cannot be denied that the deterrence that not just Hezbollah but the AoR once held, the threat they once possessed, the check they held over Israel; that was unraveled today. While the pager attacks in Lebanon today were not massive, and certainly not enough to "cripple" Hezbollah, it's an embarrassment, a massive security failure, and one that the AoR set themselves up for.

On a final note, our condolences and prayers are with all of the people of Lebanon as they are preparing to get thrown into the gauntlet of the Jewish war machine. We pray for those who lost loved ones today, in both the Christian and Muslim communities.
