Dem Rep. Moulton: Israel Shouldn’t ‘Escalate the Conflict’ by Moving Against Hezbollah in Lebanon
Breitbart ^ | 04/19/2024 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 04/19/2024 7:30:08 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Friday’s broadcast of NewsNation’s “The Hill,” Rep. Seth Moulton (D-MA) stated that Israel shouldn’t start another war by moving “against Hezbollah in Lebanon to dramatically escalate the conflict to the north.”

Moulton said, “[W]e absolutely do not want to do anything that might escalate this into a regional war. That’s not in our national security interests to get bogged down in a war in the Middle East, potentially sending American troops. And it’s not, frankly, in Israel’s national security interests either. So, behind the scenes, we’re doing what we can to tamp this down and say enough is enough, while, at the same time, standing by our ally, Israel, in the face of this really unprecedented Iranian attack.”

Yup.
Amd I’m sure it’s not lost on Israel that the only reason October 7 happened was Biden gave money to Iran.

Do Democrats take classes to be that stupid, or is it innate?
Ans: Both, classes are to increase stupidity.

its pretty awful good, that an American citizen, safe in his own coumtry, without fear of attack by any group, tells Israel, who had been surrounded by their ememies since 1947 to sit on their hands, while being bombarded!!

Stealing from chesty, “we’re surrounded. That simplifies things.”
If you can you pick off your enemies one at a time, it makes the job easier.
In a bar fight, Knock off the weakest, kick the teeth in of the largest one to back them off, and line up the next one to take out.

And Patton must be prevented from reaching Berlin first, and the US should do nothing to really upset N. Korea for taking the USS Pueblo and crew, etc. Best to perpetuate a problem than deal with it when you can.

By not leveling Beirut in response to almost daily Hezbollah attacks on Israel from Lebanese soil, Israel is already being extremely reserved.

I agree. Initially Israel should not go after Hezbollah in Lebanon. Instead Israel should go after Hezbollah in Iran. Start with Tehran.

They are in a an existential struggle. If Israel falls, where do Jews go?! Biden and company (i.e. obama) do not understand the Israelis are not going to give up.

Yam Israel chai.

Well, since there are still at least 100,000 Israelis who have evacuated from Northern Israel due to the Hezbollah/Iran rocket attacks, how about Israel just reestablishes the buffer zone in Southern Lebanon. Since the Hezbollah/Iran islamofascistnazis have probably created their own underground terror complex, just like Gaza, once Israel is finished fumigating Hamas from Gaza, it will be time for Hezbollah.
