With 1 Million Citizens Displaced, Lebanon Turns to Digital Wallets for Aid
ahhhhnoooo: Headline really deploying passive voice here. Israel's invasion and wide bombings of Lebanon is what has displaced a million people.
poisonarena: when you let iranian militants dig into your neighborhoods and launch missles at their neighbors for years you have to deal with the consequences. they let their government and military get thoroughly cucked by foreign militias and now they get to live with it.
selimthegrim: Does Iranian militants mean every local Shiite that Israel is now expelling?
YZF: No. It is Lebanon attacking Israel that resulted in Israel's self defense actions that resulted in the displacement. The displacement is due to Israel's warning to civilians to leave the area of fighting for their protection as it is required to do by international law. Lebanon is firing rockets into Israeli civilian population daily, this is a war crime."Israel strikes Lebanon after Iran ally Hezbollah fires missiles over border"https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/mar/02/israel-idf-str...
smusamashah: And they are also using humans as shield? Is it only the enemies of Israel that use human shields or do criminals/terrorists in Israel (if there is such a thing) or any other country do that too?
YZF: I'm not sure how we got to the human shield conversation but Hezbollah is firing from within civilian areas if that's the question: https://www.jpost.com/middle-east/article-891166As to what's common between Hezbollah and Hamas and Iran in the way they treat their civilians I will leave that as an exercise to the reader.
Zealotux: Keep on blaming the victims, as if you would have any say the day armed and organized militias would come into your neighborhood to do the same.
ahhhhnoooo: The person you are replying to is probably someone who won't understand that the genocide Israel is perpetrating, the settler colonialism, the systemic abuses and torture and rape of prisoners, the invasion are all justified somehow.Some people cannot take a step back and consider other perspectives, unfortunately.Edit: see? Their response, "I like it"? This person is deeply troubled and misanthropic.
YZF: Israel isn't colonizing Lebanon or abusing and torturing Lebanese. But Lebanon certainly abuses prisoners: https://www.hrw.org/report/2013/06/26/its-part-job/ill-treat...So by your logic it is fair game to attack Lebanon due to its treatment of prisoners?Lebanon also commits war crimes by firing rockets indiscriminately into Israeli population centers.Why is your rage so selective?
