Lebanese PM says willing to deploy army south of Litani River, fully implement UN resolution


The Lebanese government is ready to fully implement a UN resolution that had aimed to end Hezbollah’s armed presence south of the Litani River, caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati says.

Mikati says Lebanon is ready to fully implement the 2006 UN Security Council Resolution 1701 and deploy the Lebanese army south of the river, which lies about 30 km (around 20 miles) from Lebanon’s southern border.


Hezbollah is barred under UN Security Council Resolution 1701 from maintaining a military presence south of the Litani, however the terror group has blatantly violated that resolution.

Defense Minister Yoav Gallant strongly hinted today that the IDF was preparing to launch a ground offensive to remove the terror group from the border area and allow 60,000 displaced Israelis to return home in northern Israel.

Lebanon's prime minister has announced that he is willing to deploy his army south of the Litani River and fully implement UN Security Council Resolution 1701, which his country has refused to do since---*checks notes*---ah, yes: 2006.

Leftists and the Ayatollahs have a lot in common when it comes to criticism of Islam, they don't tolerate it.

Pentagon sending thousands of more troops to the Middle East
as Israel begins ground invasion of Lebanon


By Victor Nava      
Published Sep. 30, 2024, 11:24 p.m. ET

The Pentagon announced Monday that the US is sending thousands of more troops to the Middle East as Israel initiates “ground raids” into Lebanon targeting Hezbollah terrorists.

The “few thousand” additional forces will up the total number of US troops stationed at bases in Iraq, Syria, Jordan and other Middle Eastern countries to some 43,000.

The Pentagon did not say exactly how many troops would be deployed, but one official told the New York Times that as many as 3,000 service members would be sent to the region.

Pentagon Deputy Press Secretary Sabrina Singh told reporters on Monday that troop increase is part of a Department of Defense effort “to further enhance the defense posture of US forces in the Middle East region to deter aggression and reduce the risk of a broader regional war.”

“This includes a certain number of units already deployed to the Middle East region that will be extended, and the forces due to rotate into theater to replace them will now instead augment the in-place forces already in the region,” the Pentagon spokeswoman said.

Along with more troops, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin has ordered the USS Abraham Lincoln carrier strike group to remain in the region.

Additional defensive air support capabilities, including  F-16, F-15e, A-10, F-22 fighter jets will also be sent over, according to Singh.

“The Secretary also increased the readiness of additional US forces to deploy, elevating our preparedness to respond to various contingencies and DOD maintains robust and integrated air defense capabilities across the Middle East region, ensuring the protection of US forces operating in the region,” she added.

The Third Lebanon War has officially begun, according to Israel’s Army Radio,

as Israel Defense Forces (IDF) ground forces crossed into Lebanon early Tuesday morning to remove Hezbollah outposts that threaten Israeli communities.

The IDF apparently crossed into Lebanon at the “finger” or “panhandle” of Israel’s Galilee region, near the town of Metula, which was Israel’s northernmost town until the capture and annexation of the Golan Heights.

...


In a statement, the IDF said:

    In accordance with the decision of the political echelon, a few hours ago, the IDF began limited, localized, and targeted ground raids based on precise intelligence against Hezbollah terrorist targets and infrastructure in southern Lebanon. These targets are located in villages close to the border and pose an immediate threat to Israeli communities in northern Israel.

    The IDF is operating according to a methodical plan set out by the General Staff and the Northern Command which IDF soldiers have trained and prepared for in recent months.

    The Israeli Air Force and IDF Artillery are supporting the ground forces with precise strikes on military targets in the area.

    These operations were approved and carried out in accordance with the decision of the political echelon. Operation “Northern Arrows” will continue according to the situational assessment and in parallel to combat in Gaza and in other arenas.

    The IDF is continuing to operate to achieve the goals of the war and is doing everything necessary to defend the citizens of Israel and return the citizens of northern Israel to their homes.

10:29 - Marandi provides his perspective on Nasrallah's assassination
17:39 - "Iran will respond, there's no doubt about it"
23:18 - Is the net closing in on Iran?
30:39 - "Nasrallah might be your hero, but I think he's a terrorist"
31:18 - Yousef and Baddar respond to Marandi
45:29 - What next?
45:48 - "Target number one will be Iran's nuclear programme"
50:55 - "A ground invasion of Lebanon would be a disaster"

How can there ever be peace in Israel after over 75 years of bad blood?
There is too much hatred.

This makes sense:

I reckon Israel will empty out Gaza of women and children and put them into Lebanon -
into areas they create - with mass deportations - that's their secret plan.

Then Hamas won't be able to hide behind women and children
and Israel can finish them off.

Bibi's speech:


30 September 2024, 7:57 pm

...


https://www.timesofisrael.com/pm-to-iranians-israel-stands-with-you-youll-be-fre...

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a rare direct message to the Iranian people on Monday, saying Israel “stands with you,” as it aggressively fights the Islamic Republic’s proxies across the region in response to their attacks on the Jewish state.

“Every day, you see a regime that subjugates you make fiery speeches about defending Lebanon, defending Gaza. Yet every day, that regime plunges our region deeper into darkness and deeper into war,” the premier said in an English-language video statement, which was also disseminated with Persian subtitles.

Saying Iran’s “puppets” were being eliminated, Netanyahu added there was “nowhere in the Middle East Israel cannot reach. There is nowhere we will not go to protect our people.

“With every passing moment, the regime is bringing you — the noble Persian people — closer to the abyss,” he said. “The vast majority of Iranians know their regime doesn’t care a whit about them. If it did care, if it cared about you, it would stop wasting billions of dollars on futile wars across the Middle East. It would start improving your lives.

“Imagine if all the vast money the regime wasted on nuclear weapons and foreign wars were invested in your children’s education, in improving your health care, in building your nation’s infrastructure, water, sewage, all the other things that you need. Imagine that.”

“When Iran is finally free — and that moment will come a lot sooner than people think – everything will be different,” he asserted. “Our two ancient peoples, the Jewish people and the Persian people, will finally be at peace. Our two countries, Israel and Iran, will be at peace.

“When that day comes, the terror network that the regime built in five continents will be bankrupt, dismantled. Iran will thrive as never before: Global investment; massive tourism; brilliant technological innovation based on the tremendous talents that exist inside Iran. Doesn’t that sound better than endless poverty, repression and war?”

Netanyahu concluded by telling Iran not to “let a small group of fanatic theocrats crush your hopes and your dreams. You deserve better. Your children deserve better. The entire world deserves better. I know you don’t support the rapists and murderers of Hamas and Hezbollah, but your leaders do. You deserve more. The people of Iran should know — Israel stands with you. May we together know a future of prosperity and peace.”

Maybe this is why Bibi is invading Lebanon -
he has to stop the source of rockets as Israel is running out of Iron Dome missiles?

At 2000 rockets a year and a 100k a piece and in some cases requiring two of them the israelis will be running low by now which explains the ground invasion and them desperate to drag the US into it by egging on Iran. Won't happen though. Iran just has to sit back and eat popcorn and watch their stockpile of rockets being launched at israel from a remote location !!
