Hezb’allah Ceasefire: A Special Kind of Stupid

The USA and France want a ceasefire — which is to say they want Israel to allow Hezb’allah to regroup and attack again.

Reuters reports, “Israel rejects US-backed Lebanon ceasefire plan, hits Beirut again” and adds that France also supports a ceasefire. It is easily understandable, given that the last time France won a major war on its own was during Napoleon’s reign, that this country wants Israel to stop battering the same terrorists who murdered 53 French troops in 1983. French president Emmanuel Macron said of Benjamin Netanyahu, “It would be a mistake by the prime minister to refuse it because he would be taking responsibility for regional escalation,” as if there were not an all-out war already in progress. It would not surprise me if Vichy collaborators like Marshal Petain, Pierre Laval, and Admiral Darlan made similar comments about Winston Churchill’s “regional escalation” circa 1941. Churchill is credited, and rightly so, with saving civilization from the Axis, and Netanyahu looks like the right person to save civilization from Iranian-backed terrorism.

Less understandable is why our country also wants Israel to accept a ceasefire with Hezb’allah. Israel, in fact, did the United States’ work for it by killing Ibrahim Aqil, a terrorist responsible for murdering 241 U.S. Marines and other service personnel in 1983. Whether Israel is going to claim the $7-million reward for taking out our trash is yet to be seen, but the bottom line is that Israel did what we should have done ourselves.

Hezb’allah’s Acts of Mass Destruction

Let’s remember how we got here, even if Biden and Macron do not. First, Hezb’allah has no right to be in Lebanon at all. Second, Hezb’allah amassed more than a hundred thousand rockets, whose sole purpose is to murder Israeli civilians.
