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.
Yep, agreed.
Still not acceptable to use forced displacement as a weapon against civilians (also known as terrorism) and I will call it out whether Hezbollah does it or the IDF.
Lebanon does not recognize the existence of Israel. Every Israeli is illegally occupying all Palestinian territory.
Many Hezbollah members are Palestinians who were ethnically cleansed to Lebanon during the Nakba in 1948 and demand their land back.
An easy solution to this is for Israel to accept a two-state solution with the Palestinians according to mandated 1967 borders. This will earn Israel recognition and no longer classify them as illegal occupiers.
