Global Leaders Ignoring Hizbullah's Aggression
(Jerusalem Post) Herb Keinon - For the next four days, leader after leader will take the podium at the UN General Assembly meeting that opened on Tuesday and blast Israel for its recent actions against Hizbullah in Lebanon. For more than 11 months, many of those leaders were deafeningly silent as Hizbullah - with no provocation on Israel's part - sent rockets and drones into Israel as a show of solidarity with Hamas's barbaric attack on Oct. 7. Hizbullah's attacks were seen as a natural and even understandable show of solidarity with Hamas. Those with real leverage over Hizbullah - first and foremost, Iran - have no incentive to push it to agree to a diplomatic solution that will lead to its withdrawal from southern Lebanon. This makes the continued IDF escalation almost inevitable.
