While #Lebanon is without electricity and fuel, #US Sec Mike Pompeo said: "The US is trying to prevent Iran from selling crude oil to #Hezbollah", claiming that "Washington is supporting Lebanon to be a country that is not subordinate to the Islamic Republic." Image
In reality, the #US is not supporting #Lebanon in its severe financial crisis. It prevents Gulf & European countries from supporting Lebanon unless the government submits to the US hegemony.

The US is also putting pressure to prevent any rapprochement between Lebanon and #China.
The #US is losing more ground because people won't starve and won't be able to turn against #Hezbollah because the source of corruption emanates from all US allies who govern Lebanon for decades.
The government of #Lebanon will end up suffering US sanctions because it can't survive without oil, food and medicine. US is pushing Lebanon to starvation and that will push the country in the arms of #Iran.
By closing the borders with #Syria and preventing oil supply from #Iran and industrial relationship with #China, the #US wants #lebaon to submit and this won't happen.

The US administration hops for another choice: civil war to keep #Hezbollah busy domestically.
The #US counts on many Lebanese, ready to help to take #Lebanon towards the abyss. The Lebanese society is sharply divided and there is a fertile for the #US plans to go through without necessary been successful.

Diffiicult choice for Lebanon ahead.
One think is clear:

The #US is locking down #Lebanon and the country needs to find alternatives.

#Yemen is ready to stand with #Gaza stronger than ever. It was part of the plan to accept the consequences and fight against the Israeli crimes even if the #US is doing everything to divert the attention and keep the war ongoing on the children and women of Gaza.
It is laughable for a superpower, the #US, to put itself in a position of being a target by the poorest, but one of the most courageous, country in the Middle East #Yemen.

Let's how the Americans can (fail to) protect Israeli shipments crossing through the Red Sea.
The US will now rush to #Iran and #Oman to send the following messages:

We know we haven't degraded Ansar Allah's capability but we don't want to escalate. We think the case of using 100 bombs on #Yemen is close. We didn't want to look weak.

Well, it doesn't work like that.

#Israel is in crisis:
The army is unable to achieve its objectives.
The cabinet's members want a major role.
The small Cabine members disagree w/ one another over how Netanyahu runs it.
The war cabinet can't stick one another overtly.
All disagree w/ Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi.
Chief of Staff Halevi appointed a committee to evaluate the mistakes of the 7th for October, upsetting the political leadership.

The settlers around #Gaza and on the Lebanese borders won't return because they have lost trust in the army and government.
Loss of economy reached $18 billion and is expected to reach $58 billion.

More than 600.000 Israelis left for their country of origin in 2023.

The domestic front realises that #Hamas is capable of launching missiles as on day one and battle in #Gaza intensifies.

Israel killed Yasser Arafat, Sheikh Ahmad Yassin, Fathi Shiqaqi, and Abu Ali Mustafa, and the Palestinian resistance became stronger than ever. One of the martyrs assassinated with Sheikh Saleh Al-Aruri in #Beirut was Samir Fandi, al-Qassam's official representative in #Lebanon and abroad. He had been at the top of the #Israel assassination list for quite some time for his military role abroad.
Among the #Hamas commanders assassinated by #Israel in #Beirut were 3 Lebanese. #Lebanon, through its army, people and resistance, has the official right to respond and hold Israel accountable for its crimes.
#Israel PM @Netanyahu aimed for a folkloric victory to reconstruct his image & cover his failure to achieve his objectives to defeat #Hamas & free the prisoners. No victory in #Gaza, apart from destroying the Strip & killing children & women. Netanyahu is enlarging the conflict.

Those killed in #Israel are innocent.
There are no innocents in #Gaza.

The children of Israel are innocent victims.
The children of Gaza are terrorists.

The women of Israel are innocent civilians.
The women of Gaza are mothers of terrorists.
#Hamas carried out terrorist attacks against Israeli settlers.

#Israel is responsible for unfortunate casualties considered collateral damage.

Hamas should be destroyed and is hiding behind civilians.

Israel has the right to defend itself and to bomb hospitals, schools, homes.
#Israel killed thousands of Palestinians. We are aware, deeply concerned and call for all parties to refrain from escalating.

#Hamas killed innocent Israel and should be totally eliminated and with it the people of #Gaza.

Simple equation:

If #Israel destroys villages in southern #Lebanon, #Hezbollah will destroy #Haifa.

If Israel bombs #Beirut or its suburbs, Hezbollah will destroy Tel Aviv and all energy platforms, including ports and airports.
If #Israel relies on the #US, the Iraqi resistance has prepared to bomb and destroy all military bases in #Iraq.

So far, the Iraqi resistance has been asked to limit its attacks. But it has more precision missiles than Hezbollah to deal with US bases.
Remember, there are Pakistani, Afghan and other partners in the 'Axis of Resistance', all well trained and equipped with precision missiles.

As far as I know, they can all be brought into the fight, depending on how far #Israel wants to drag the #US into it.

In 1967, #Israel lost 776 soldiers and occupied the Sinai peninsula, the Golan Heights, the West Bank, Gaza & East Jerusalem in only 6-days. It defeated Egypt, Jordan, & Syria.

In 2023, Israel lost over 1000 soldiers and didn't occupy 360 sqm against a resistance group in #Gaza.
In 2023, the #US, #UK, #France, #Germany & #Italy r in an operations room in Tel Aviv supporting #Israel. The US has sent 3 aircraft carriers along with significant naval support. 2000 Delta Force is in Israel, & the US military base is providing intelligence & planning support.
The #US used 15000 tons of explosives against #hiroshima and 21000 tons of explosives against #Nakazaki to dominate the World. #Israel has used 40000 tons of explosives against #Gaza, occupying 20% of its but controls nothing.
