@maxlin7208

are you trying to be sarcastic by telling people that Hezbollah is not terrorists? C'mon, there is one better: the biggest and the most terrifying terrorists call themselves the police of the world!

@Timotheos-td7mq

The US government are nothing but Treasonous Zionist Illuminati puppets,
The psychopathic Rothschild banking cartel is the head of the Zionist snake.

@Haijwsyz51846

I think I have watched documentaries that isis and Al Qaida were created by the US, and Israel created hamas . It’s so complicated that I find it’s impossible to wrap my head around it. US and Israel created something to fight with them. WTF!

@elijaheskin1

Sorry this title doesn't make any sense. hasn't Lebanon been bombing Israel none stop since October the 8th?

@NazirRahimtula

Ben Norton you're one of the most intelligent and informed young men that I have ever heard keep up the good work you are great.

@dumupad3-da241

1. That Israeli person didn't 'envoke' Sykes-Picot, he said the opposite – that Sykes-Picot was ill-conceived and a failure and that was why the current borders, which were established by Sykes-Picot, were illegitimate as well. 2. The fact that Hezbollah has fought a terror group does not prove that it is not a terror group itself. The decisive question is whether it uses the methods of a terror group, i.e. attacking civilians. There are some allegations to that effect, but I agree that the evidence seems very slim and uncertain compared to that for Al-Qaeda, Isis, Hamas, etc.

Its a stupid question.

How can I be a proud of my country when my country supports war

The roots of all evil have arise from the evilness of Israel

Let’s not forget who started this word first place

@BadBoy-so2pq

US = Israel wana cause conflict in middle east

I don't believe there is a clear reason for Israel to attack Lebanon. The real target of Israel's attacks, which are fully supported by the United States, is, in fact, Iran.

@VivianKreimer

Praise Kanye West, black South Africa. Not only does religion divide humans, but creates excuses for war. What we need is universal belief. For black, white and all.

@AlphonsusWayland

I personally believe every nation have the right to defend themselves against an enemy every human being have the right to defend himself or herself but in doing so no one have the right to kill innocent people.

@AlphonsusWayland

The powerful world leaders failed the world in 2024 because the world don't need war the world needs love peace and togetherness. The world leaders can stop the war they just don't want to do so. As far as am concern the United Nations has no power over Israel and Israel has no respect for the United Nation.

Sykes-Picot. Also, the Brits and French armies together destroyed and looted China’s Summer Palace which remains as a historic monument to Western imperialism. The Empress Dowager’s Stone Boat remains the symbol of Qing Dynasty’s inability to withstand the Opium Wars with the British Empire which took control of B.C.C. British Crown Colony of Hong Kong for 99 years, China’s century of humiliation. The Scramble for China by Robert Bickers

When did Lloyd Austin first get on the board of Raytheon? How long has he been on? How much did he profit? Raytheon was established and named by Vandeveer Bush, whose name graces the main dome of MIT, which has DoD contracts for drone swarming and underwater surveillance (submarine drones). Why does he choose now to get off the board?

The truth always reveals itself

@outerspace7391

Calling the state of Israel a fascist far right state is demeaning. Feels like you're claiming that the center and the center left that ruled the state for so many years is innocent for what happened and keeps happening to Palestine, Lebanon, Syria and so many others. Regardless who rules Tel Aviv the foreign policy is the same, just like in America. Move beyond the labels such as fascism who've lost their meaning, it could fix this channel's image by a lot, because your work is remarkably astonishing.

@MustafaAjalu

God bless you❤

@almondhastings

As an American I am ashamed of our support of Israel in any way. It was wrong to give a country to a religion in the first place. Israel has been trying genocide ever since. It is time for the Moslem countries to join and stop the invasion. The United Nations is a total waste of time.

@hasnanhashim4386

@primadonnaqueen3685

Great video. However, it is important to note that Sunni muslims have been warned by Prophet Mohammad (SAW) of terrorists who will cause chaos in the world and claim to be part of them, which, as seen in this video, ISIS claims to be muslim but all muslims reject them.

Another note, Hezbullah and the Syrian government killed the prime minister of Lebanon, Rafik al Hariri. Afterwards, various assassinations were carried out against political people who supported the prime minister, whom, under his care, Lebanon was thriving and had many arab allies. Since the assassinations, Lebanon has been going down hill. The assassination happened in 2005 and is: “A Syrian-Iranian decision and a Syrian-Hezbollah execution.”

Hezbullah's political figures and their Christain allies have been holding Lebanon captive by refusing to vote for a president for 2 years now as they want to assign a president who fulfills their agenda instead of choosing a president who can uplift Lebanon from the depths of hell.

Moreover, Christain Lebanese are mostly split into 2 major groups, those who are allies with Hezbullah, and those who despise him and have gone to war against the organization.

When the revolution in Lebanon happened at the end of 2019, a group supporting Hezbullah stormed the streets and started beating the protestors who were simply sitting there. The revolution happened because political figures of all religious backgrounds (and this includes Hezbullah's politicians) stole funds from the government, and they've been doing so since the prime minister's assassination in 2005.

Basically, every Lebanese political group has blood on its hands. I will say however that the US is far more terroristic than Hezbullah.

@libbychang413

if palestine/lebanon commits a terrorist act then its terrorism…if israel commits the same terrorist act then its self-defense…do the fucking math…
