Benjamin Netanyahu's appeal came as Israel expanded its ground invasion against Hezbollah.

During a video address directed at the people of Lebanon, Netanyahu said: "You have an opportunity to save Lebanon before it falls into the abyss of a long war that will lead to destruction and suffering like we see in Gaza.

        My point is the last time they tried to invade everyone to get rid of the terrorists, they just created more terrorists in more areas.

        Which was because Israel attacked, which was because the arab countries attacked, which was because Britain decided to put Israel in Palestine.

                Not really as it has its own republic. Like all countries in pink

                However it’s influence is still huge. If their monarch is in your money out their flag is in yours there is s bit more to it than a decolonised entity.
