 Which War to Fight?

    Part 3

     "Lebanon's economy is in shambles, it has no president, and massive waves of emigration. Israeli forces were going town by town to root out Hezbollah fighters. They found many stockpiles of weapons hidden in homes. 

     "Meanwhile, Iran and Hezbollah have smuggled weapons into Jordan and across the Israeli border. The plan is to distribute weapons all over the West Bank and among the Arab sector in Israel. All to inflame the West Bank. 

     "Israelis are aware Iran is close to producing materials needed for a nuclear weapon. The Biden administration sent a powerful anti-missile defense system to Israel but is opposed to an Israeli attack on Iranian nuclear sites. 

     "A retired Israeli army colonel believes Israel should focus solely on Iran. In part because Israel needs the full support of its Arab allies to confront Tehran - not likely while thousands of Palestinians and Lebanese are dying in bombardments. He hopes there will be a revolution in Iran, for the Israelis sake and also Iranians who are suffering. 

     "Iran's inflation rate is over 35 percent and unemployment is high. Tolerance for oppressive laws has declined. A dress-code arrest and death of an Iranian-Kurdish woman led to protests resulting in more than 60 deaths and some 19,000 arrests. 

     "Israel's government realizes that Iranian people are on their side, and they are banking on that. " 

Does anyone think world peace is easy?

Tomorrow: Can we resist the Deep State?
