I saw an article about them attacking Lebanon now. So, where will it stop? Have the Israeli government ever spoken about this?

    I saw an article about them attacking Lebanon now.

    Hezbollah, not Lebanon. Please don’t legitimize terrorist groups by considering them to be the government of the country they operate in. Lebanon has elections, please support democracy and it’s not consider Hezbollah as Lebanon’s government, even if those psychopaths have control over a significant portion of the country.

    That being said, Nasrallah is probably under significant pressure to do something to help Hamas in some way. Last week he put out some threats against Israel. Israel put out counter threats. In all likelihood that’s where things will stay, neither side wants a war with the other.

    The media is always saying a war is imminent. Remember when they were claiming China was going to invade Taiwan any minute? There’s probably some outlets that’re still are saying that sometimes. It gets clicks, views, and ratings.

    Who knows they might be right this time (a stopped clock is right twice a day) but it seems doubtful.

    So, where will it stop?

    In terms of Gaza, Hamas is still holding Israeli hostages. It’s not going to stop as long as Hamas is holding Israelis hostage.

    Hamas is likely making a lot of money from the suffering of Palestinians. So they don’t have much incentive to release the hostage and put an end to the conflict.

    So it will continue on as the IDF goes house to house trying to find the people that Hamas took on October 7.

    Eventually either the IDF will find all of the hostages or Hamas will release them. Then it will end.
