Hezbollah attacked Israel on the 8th of October and supported Hamas attacking and kidnapping civilians on the 7th October.
Iran is actively supporting conflicts in the Middle East, Europe and Africa. So either we start talking about the religious fanatics or we just accept the USA as the world police and we should just do as they tell us to do.
I’d personally prefer the former…
Thank you for this comprehensive account of all the events that have led to the current situation and for presenting us with the only two options available.
I could write my comment since I live in a democracy with freedom of speech… something I would not be able to do if I lived in Gaza because of Hamas.

“The only religious fanatics are the Zionist…”
Yeah, I’m pretty sure millions of women in Iran beg to differ.

Which in turn ignores the fact that only Biden is CURRENTLY the president and accountable for his own actions (which include material aid and political cover to the point that the US in general and the executive branch in particular is an active PARTICIPANT in the genocide rather than just a biased bystander) and that he’s acting against the wishes of not just the vast majority of the people who voted for him, but also the majority of the population in general.
I don’t like the use of the term either, as it makes legitimate criticism seem disingenuous if not downright Trumpian, but that doesn’t mean that it’s inaccurate.

I get what you’re saying, but I strenuously disagree with your central assertion that there’s no point in legitimate criticism of a sitting president as long as there isn’t currently a better president available.
You don’t just get a free pass to commit crimes against humanity because there’s nobody lined up who wouldn’t.
That’s lumping the US president in with the likes of Viktor Orban, Vladimir Putin, Benyamin Netanyahu, and other presidents whose subjects aren’t allowed to criticize their worst actions.

Us arms and aid won’t save the idf from hizbollah
If we’re talking about just arms vs. arms, Hezbollah is far weaker. They probably have the ability to draw Israel into a lengthy guerilla war a la Afghanistan, which will eventually make Israel admit the whole thing is pointless, but that also would mean that Iran doesn’t decide to join in the fight. I still think Israel would have the stronger military in that case, but the bigger issue there would be that out of those three groups, only Israel has nukes and they aren’t concerned about the spread of fallout if they lob one at Tehran like they would be in Gaza.

Lost in what way? In that Hezbollah still exists? Because see above re guerilla war.
