Comment: “Israel has the right to self-defense”? Let me get it straight. Israel invades Lebanon and when the Lebanese defend themselves, Israel says, “Now, we have the right to self-defense”? Nonsense! The only reason Hezbollah was sending rockets into Israel was the Israeli occupation and annexation of the Palestinian territories, Syrian Golan Heights, and parts of Southern Lebanon. Do they think we are stupid? Israel has been invading Lebanon since 1980s and this is part of the Greater Israel project, a quite illegal and criminal , [ 2 ] , [ 3 ] , [ 4 ] , [ 5 ] , [ 6 ] enterprise.
