The Greatest Threat to Peace in the Region Is Iran and Its Proxies
(Telegraph-UK) Editorial - The barrage of missiles fired by Hizbullah at Israel from southern Lebanon is the latest in a succession of outrages that reached its apogee with the Oct. 7 massacres and kidnappings by Hamas, another Iran-backed group. Tehran has been providing Hizbullah with thousands of rockets over the years hidden in villages and houses just a few miles from the Israel-Lebanon border. Since Israel invaded Gaza in response to the Oct. 7 attacks, the Lebanese-based militia has fired scores of missiles into Israel. The recent barrage was the biggest so far. Critics of Israel have called for a "proportionate response," but it is not Israel who is responsible. The presence on their borders of heavily armed militias intent on destroying the Jewish state is a reality they have had to live with for decades.
