🧵 Why You Shouldn’t Listen to Defeatists. Especially Now
A thread on internalized powerlessness, moral confusion, and why resistance is not only justified, it's necessary. 1/
There’s a growing trend I need to call out.

People who once supported justice, resistance, and liberation now sound cynical, even complicit.

They criticize armed resistance more than they criticize the empire that made it necessary. This thread is for them.

What is happening in Lebanon and why does it feel like nothing is being done?

A thread to unpack the crisis, the political deadlock, and the complicity both from within and outside.

Let’s dive in. 🧵 Since the ceasefire agreement in Lebanon on November 27, 2024, Hezbollah has relied on the Lebanese government to ensure that the deal will be respected but thus far it has been catastrophic with more than 2000+ breaches and more than 100+ martyres including army soldiers.

🚨Very important updates from the IROR (Islamic Resistance operation room):

The Mujahideen of the Islamic Resistance continue their resistance against the Israeli aggression on Lebanon, inflicting heavy losses on the enemy's army, including officers and soldiers, along various confrontation axes. These actions extend from the front lines to locations within the depths of occupied Palestine. 👇 1- Ground Confrontations:

• Western Sector:

⭕️Due to intensive and focused strikes by the resistance, Israeli forces have withdrawn from most towns they advanced into, retreating beyond the borders. The 146th Division of the Israeli army, however, remains stalled for over a week in the forests of Al-Labouneh and east of the town of Naqoura. It seeks to control the area by advancing toward the Hamoul Valley, east of the town. In other border towns in the western sector, no infiltration or advance attempts have been recorded since October 28, 2024. The enemy has limited its actions to frequent sweeps from border positions in areas from which it has withdrawn, along with artillery shelling and airstrikes on second-line towns, including Tayr Harfa, Al-Batishiyah, Al-Jibin, Shihin, Sadiqin, and others.

⭕️On the Marun al-Ras axis, our fighters carried out more than 24 operations using rockets and drone strikes targeting the positions and gatherings of Israeli forces and vehicles advancing into Lebanese territory. Additionally, 26 attacks were carried out using rockets and artillery shells on settlements including Avivim, Dovev, Saasa, Bar’am, Yaroun, Dishon, and Malakia Bar-Yohai. These areas house air defense and missile sites, command centers of battalions involved in the assault, weapons depots, and vehicle assembly zones belonging to the 36th Division of the Israeli army.

⭕️During an Israeli infiltration attempt from Yaroun towards the western outskirts of Marun al-Ras, our fighters ambushed the infiltrating forces, engaging them with machine guns and rocket-propelled grenades, resulting in casualties among the enemy forces.

⭕️East of Marun al-Ras, between the towns of Marun al-Ras and Aitaroun, our fighters ambushed an Israeli force attempting to infiltrate towards Ainata. Close-quarters combat ensued with machine guns and rocket-propelled grenades, leaving all members of the force either killed or wounded, as confirmed by our fighters who withdrew under cover of rocket and artillery fire from Islamic Resistance support units.
