  1. So the British government say that Israel has the right to defend themselves.

    Does Lebanon not have the right to defend itself? What about Palestine? Or Iran? Or any of the other countries in the Middle East Israel are currently attacking?

  2. Consistent-Towel5763 on

    Anyone who doesnt follow this advice or get in contact with the embassy to say that they are stuck NOW and need extraction doesn’t deserve to have our troops be put in danger extracting them out later.

  3. I’d imagine the British nationals aren’t part of Hezbollah, and Hezbollah hasn’t been caught doing internal strikes.

    Unless someone else is blowing up civilian areas indiscriminately they should be fine?

  4. Don’t know why people need to be told to leave a country that’s being bombed. I mean, if you know it’s being bombed. I imagine it’d be hard to not notice the country you’re living in getting bombed.
