The Litani River...this takes me back to the invasion of Lebanon by Israel in 1982. The area south of the Litani was, Israel hoped, to be a buffer zone that would be controlled by a pliable Lebanese force. The opposite happened in that Hezbollah came into being, a far stronger force than the Lebanese army, true right up until now. It is said that proof of insanity is trying the same thing again and expecting different results, but perhaps the mighty US can overcome logic.
History records that the entry of Zionism into the area has been a disastrous loss for the natives, many times the number of Israeli dead are the number of Palestinians, Syrians, Lebanese plus the relatively few Iranians who have died through Israeli espionage/assassination runs into Iran, all of it contrary to international law, law that the US allows Israel to ignore.
But Israel tells the world that it is the innocent victim and defender, the image that is burned into Israeli minds by holocaust education, the holocaust an event that none of Israel's victims conducted. Self righteousness and the desire for revenge is so strongly inculcated that the end of Nazism with WW2 required a replacement target - the Palestinians, this so easily seen in the behavior of the IDF eagerly destroying with a will and Netanyahu spouting nonsense about facing Amalek/the forces of darkness. The man and his troops are stone blind.
As Cornel West has said, one either believes all human lives are equally valuable or one doesn't. One is either moral or one isn't. It could not be more clear that Israel is dedicated to destroying all who oppose its ethnic supremacist rule, even Americans have been killed for this. A monster is on the loose and the US makes it possible for that monster to kill and destroy without limit.
The only thing that restrains power is opposing power. Without any meaningful opposing power, Israel is free to do as it has been doing, slaughtering Palestinians and openly talking about taking over the land it has devastated with US weapons and unlimited/unquestioning US support.
As a result the US and Israel have sunk to the bottom before the rest of the world that has witnessed this atrocity of conquest, of blatant and proud might making right and the extinction of the liberty and justice for all the US once claimed to stand for. The American Pledge of Allegiance is now and empty chant as Zionist wealth has moved to control a Congress openly corrupted by the Supreme Court rulings that money is speech and that unlimited private money may be spent on election campaigns.
Lebanon has been bombed into submission by US/Israel. Fighting on the ground can't compete with cowardly massive bombs dropped on civilians, infrastructure, homes etc. So far more than 3000 killed in Lebanon, at least 185 children. 13,492 injured. Biden is just a vile duplicit mouthpiece for Netanyahu and his obsessive pursuit of Iran. Gaza and the West Bank are now more vulnerable.
While ever Israel, with a complicit US, pursues its agenda of expansion this killing won't stop.
Divide and rule is what it looks like with a police force like the Palestinian Authority, ISIS 2.0, that can be eliminated at will: “Makdisi said, “I think now the U.S. is going to double down on this because it's clear that they will not give the Lebanese army any form of proper equipment, proper mechanisms to be able to defend themselves,” he added. “The plan is to try and make Lebanon’s army purely in opposition to Hezbollah.””
Not buying it.

Isreal must be destroyed to save it.
I trust nothing that comes out of the Biden administration’s mouth.
Still no truce possible, ceasefire in Lebanon although nothing is certain.
NetnYahoo still free with his permanent Get Out Of Jail card, thanks to the pitiful losers
particularly USA
