“Hezbollah has confirmed that the Israeli strike which killed hundreds of people in residential buildings in Beirut also killed Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. It’s crazy to see people justifying such horrific attacks on the basis that a political leader they don’t like was also killed. Like, really? That’s your defense?? That the massacre was also a political assassination? The White House released a statement applauding the strike, calling it ‘a measure of justice’ because Hezbollah ‘were responsible for killing hundreds of Americans over a four-decade reign of terror’. It shows how little value the western empire assigns Arab lives that an assassination strike which killed hundreds of Lebanese civilians is viewed as a ‘measure of justice’ for killing hundreds of Americans over four decades.” (09/29/24)
