The Islamic Resistance in Lebanon - Hezbollah, issued an evacuation order on Saturday evening, directed at Israeli settlers in 25 settlements in northern occupied Palestine, following in the footsteps of the Israeli occupation forces who had been forcing people to flee their homes in numerous areas across Lebanon.
Hezbollah, meanwhile, stated that these settlements had become military outposts where Israeli occupation forces are stationed to launch attacks on Lebanon. Consequently, Hezbollah declared them legitimate military targets for its aerial and missile forces, calling on settlers to “evacuate immediately.”
“You are requested to evacuate immediately. Your settlements have become a place of deployment and settlement for the enemy military forces attacking Lebanon. As a result, they have become legitimate military targets for the air and missile forces of the Islamic Resistance,” the warning read.
Israeli settlers, so stolen homes, not theirs
I thought the idea was to stop further displacement. Displaying civilians just because their government is evil is still forced displacement, still a crime, still wrong. I’m Palestinian. I don’t want to take anyone’s home just like mine was taken. That’s the whole point. No?
Israeli settlers know exactly what theyre doing. They are far from innocent civilians.
It’s not about displacement. Those settlements have a lot of military activity currently so Hezbollah is saying “we’re going to attack them so move out of the way”
Honestly it sounds to me like Hezbollah is just mirroring IDF tactics (maybe to make a political point). It’s absolutely no different from Lebanese people being told to evacuate by Israel. Except for that one part where Israel gives you less than 10 minutes to grab your cat and daughter.
And then also bombs you in the designated safe zones, so really it’s nothing alike and minimizing civilian casualties is the correct way to prosecute a war, right?
