Because of the time limits I have at the moment, I will provide shorter posts until I can get internet and computer usage for long enough to follow up with a full article. This section of an article by the editor of Lebanese media outlet Al Akhbar, Ibrahim Al Amin provides a succinct and accurate description of what Israel’s agenda is in the region:

To Those Who Abandoned Their Duty to Resist: US Won't Save You from Netanyahu's Boundless Expansionism

“There is nothing more valuable than clarity in war”, Ibrahim al-Amin asserts in his article today. He emphasizes that Netanyahu has laid bare his expansionist agenda in his recent speech, calling on Israelis to prepare for a prolonged, extensive conflict. Netanyahu’s message signals a unified approach in “Israel’s” operations across Gaza and Lebanon, with ongoing actions already initiated in Syria. Additionally, he is setting the stage for expanded aggression toward Iraq, Yemen, and potentially Iran, a campaign enabled by the backing of global powers who see Netanyahu’s moves as aligning with their interests.

Al-Amin cautions Lebanese factions relying on US intervention, warning that their hope for US pressure on Israel to halt its aggression is misplaced. He urges leaders advocating for a “grand adventure” to consider the dangers of subjecting Lebanon’s political, military, security, judicial, and financial sectors to US colonial oversight. Anyone believing that the war will allow the US to reshape Lebanon’s institutions without resistance is misguided; such changes will not happen unchallenged. Resistance remains the only viable path forward, as the alternative is a future marked by hunger, oppression, and humiliation.

He warns that anyone blaming the resistance for the current hostilities must recognize their complicity in the ongoing aggression. “Those who abandon their duty to defend Lebanon cannot question others for fulfilling theirs in pursuit of freedom and genuine independence”. Moreover, those seeking to isolate resistance efforts misunderstand the reality: "Israel", with explicit support from the US, UK, Germany, and certain Arab nations, is ultimately consolidating these fronts.
