The Spin

Israel's assault on Lebanon is a war of choice — one that has killed over 1,200 civilians, displaced 1.1 million people and now claimed the lives of UN peacekeepers. Attacks on UNIFIL are attacks on the entire international order, and Israel's history of targeting UN positions, going back to the 1996 Qana strike, makes the pattern undeniable. Diplomacy is on the table and Lebanon wants it — Israel just refuses.

Hezbollah triggered this conflict by firing on Israeli communities and has since launched 5,000 missiles from southern Lebanon, deliberately embedding weapons near UNIFIL positions — making Hezbollah responsible for peacekeeper deaths, not Israel. The Security Council should withhold judgment until a full investigation is complete rather than rush to condemn Israel for damage caused by Iran-backed terrorists. Supporting the Lebanese Armed Forces to reclaim sovereignty from Hezbollah is the only real path to peace.
