From the photos on twitter, it looks like it hit the only soccer field in town, landing between the field and the playground next to it. Hezbollah first claimed the attack, but now that there are 10 kids dead, and another several dozen kids injured they’ve backpedaled on it.
UPDATE: 10 dead, 6 in critical, 3 moderate, 4 light, and several dozen unadmitted injured people
As I said, you are in part driven by a simplified view of a complicated conflict. You might want to read up on some history to find out why jews chose to leave their homes in Russia, Europe, Northern-Africa and the Ottoman Empire to congregate in one small part of the latter, where some of them already lived. That’s a bit different from, let’s say, Morocco walking into the Western Sahara to plant their flag.
Iran is shipping munitions into Lebanon, which are then fired across the border on Israeli villages, but it’s only escalation if they shoot back?
That’s the mindset of the schoolyard bully that keeps spitting on someone and then says the other kid ‘escalated’ by kicking him in the nuts
You can’t go in and kill people and take their homes and land because Europe didn’t want to deal with their antisemitism. I love how every attempt to defend Israel through history always comes out worse. Imagine if I invited my family to come over and take my neighbor’s house because someone completely unrelated to my neighbors was mean to them. The existence of nations like the US and the fact that Israel has some of the most dual citizenships in the world disproves the fact that they need their own ethnostate anyway.
Why would you only talk about Europe and forget about Russia, the Middle East and Northern Africa?
