    Israel didn’t target civilian areas in Beirut. They targeted members of Hezbollah, a terrorist militia, that has attacked Israel non stop since October 7th 2023.

      Then I guess Hezbollah attacking IDF servicemen wherever they might be, including civilian areas in Tel Aviv, is completely okay. Even if it comes to some civilian casualties.

        I doubt if Hezbollah would attack the IDF directly. The IDF is armed and would shoot back immediatley.

          They have attacked the IDF many times and secured numerous casualities, just recently they struck an IDF intelligence unit with drones killing dozens, resulting in the commander’s resignation.

          Oh no, they’ll probably just plant detonation devices™️ in areas where IDF servicemen usually are and hope that no collateral civilian casualties™️ happen. After all it’s a very genuine war tactic and definitely not a terrorist attack

        That would be a comparable attack, yes of course. However Hezbollah doesn’t possess such sophisticated capabilities.

        As far as collateral damage and civilian deaths the attack on Hezbollah seems to have been exceptionally good. Making a personal device explode is one of the most targeted ways you can conduct an attack.

        Both of them are ‘wrong’ and ‘okay’ when they do this. But in some way Hezbollah is ‘more wrong’, because they (re)started it. The only result being a lot of useless casualties with no end in sight.
