The time between detection and impact is what makes the difference between total annihilation and very heavy losses/successful interception.

So they want to install a puppet "ruling" over the rubble to help finish the handover to the genocidal maniacs.

Hezbollah started limited attacks after Israel starting bombing Gaza. That was the level of engagement for many months. The understanding to keep it at that level changed with Israel escalating into Syria and Lebanon more and more, as well as the total annihilation they bring on Gaza.

You don't need to look at all of the "conflict". However the fundamentals are not complicated. Israel is a settler colonial state. It is found on and will be completed by genocide and ethnic cleansing of the population it is stealing the land from. This is what happened in what is today the US. This is what France tried in Algeria. And you find this again and again throughout human history.

You can engage in all sorts of debates as to who has shot first at what point, but this fundamental structure of the situation does not change.

Hezbollah made it clear they don't want an escalation and the way to end the fighting and the border is by Israel ending the genocide in Gaza. The same goes for the regime in Iran, which had to respond to Israels assault on the embassy, but they did so in a matter to show force, without causing relevant damage. The one escalating is Netanyahu, who hopes to draw all of the west into a total war in the middle east, because the support for his genocide is dwindling.

It is the mindset of a schoolyard bully, that always picks fights, to then call on his bigger brother to defend him. It would be funny, if it wouldnt be a genocidal maniac, that is set to put the lives of hundreds of millions of people at risk.

It is also okay not to be good a "small talk". I quite frankly hate it and for the most part i tend to overwhelm people in conversations. Now i am happily married and we still sometimes end up just talking all night, because we engage in conversations we both find meaningful.

Weirdly enough and quite annoyingly now that i am married and built some confidence, a lot of women are hitting on me, and seemingly unfazed by me stating the fact that i am married. Had to cut out a few people from my life because of that.

You are conviently forgetting the whole aspect that it isnt your yard, but you stole it by murdering and driving out the family that used to live there. Now some of that family is in my house and other parts of the family are in the house next over, that you are currently setting on fire.

So yeah, that is you escalating shit in that analogy.

Shouldn't you be able to get away with two 2n bit adders and recursion?

I fail to see your point. There is more displaced Lebanese and much more Lebanese killed by Israel since Oct. 7. Considering displacement overall, adding in the 2 million displaced in Gaza, the attempt to put the blame on Hezbollah fails completely.

On September 1 1939 Germany invaded Poland. On September 3, France, the UK and other UK affiliated states declared war on Germany. I hope it is obvious, that this does not put the blame of escalation on France and the UK.

While technically true, countries with a proper constitution that is upheld by the judiciary, legislative and executive branch of government tend to be much more stable.

It is good to amend the constitution if necessary, but the principle of there being a constitution and it being followed, is a very important thing for democracy.

The level of engagement remained on the low and the "unwritten rules of engagement" like keeping things within a few kilometers of the border used to be upheld by both IDF and Hezbollah

i'm sorry. The attack on Beirut already happened in January. https://apnews.com/article/lebanon-beirut-explosion-suburbs-hezbollah-israel-2a43fe948e8cb49c64b34bb963d77f64

I must have mixed it up with the attack on Damascus in April.

The threat of turning Leba non into another Gaza also was from that time https://www.aa.com.tr/en/middle-east/israel-s-netanyahu-threatens-to-turn-northern-lebanon-into-gaza-amid-escalation-with-hezbollah-/3103473

Since then the rethoric has picked up significantly over the past months, and again with extensive international coverage of a potential escalation into Lebanon.
