    Are you kidding? Israel has killed countless civilians in Gaza, committing obvious crimes like indiscriminately cutting off running water, is invading a sovereign state without the slightest cause accepted by international law, committing crimes as collective punishment. It has been clearly endangering the security of states like Iran in what is a provocation that even the US has protested. But for you it is not the greatest danger to the security of the region, you cannot be serious.

      Your comment had two pieces, and my comment was contesting the second part only, namely this:

      it is not them who should be kept out of the territory of another sovereign state

      … because clearly, they’re arming terrorist groups in another sovereign state specifically for the purpose of hurting yet another sovereign state.

      The biggest threat to peace in the region right now is not Iran,

      While I am at it: I find ascribing the role of a “biggest threat” a bit pointless in this situation. Yes, Israel is clearly killing a lot of people right now. A lot more than either Hamas or Hezbollah on their own ever could.

      Imo, the situation in the Middle East results from a pointless series of provocations where people chose to escalate rather than de-escalate.

        At this time only one state has its own troops on the soil of another country without having been invited in the entire Middle East. Everything else is cheap talk that covers up or relativizes the genocidal acts of a criminal state.
