Underneath Lebanon, Israel sees hidden battlefield

#3  Israel should simply state that it has 100 tactical nuclear weapons that have been allocated to use against Hezbollah in Beirut and the south, should war break out. Israel should also state that it will use these nukes at the first launch of tactical missiles toward Israel, and that all casualties will be blamed on Lebanon, Hezbollah, Syria and Iran.

#2  Israel should make a clear statement to the government of Lebanon, that by allowing Hezbollah to conduct these activities around civilians, the Lebanese government is to blame if these civilians are injured or killed during hostilities.

Therefore, it officially asks the Lebanese government to evacuate civilians from this area of possible hostilities. If they fail to do so, then they are complicit in, or even actually encouraging, civilian casualties.

Finally, Israel should state that due to the hazardous nature of attempting to root "Hezbollah infrastructure" from this area through the use of ground forces, Israel will do so by air, as the situation requires.

And this may include the complete destruction of both civilian occupied Lebanese towns, and any underground facilities in the area.

Israel regrets that the Lebanese government so despises its own people that it would sacrifice them in support of a foreign sponsored terrorist organization.

#1  Makes you wonder what now constitutes a casus belli. Five thousand armed terrorist on my border would do the trick for me.
