    The recent escalation is due to Israel’s heavy handed response to Hamas, but this is not a new issue.

    That’s not what you initially wrote.

    Which in turn was in response to…going back to the illegal occupation of South Lebanon by Israel.

    Which is what I clarified in the first place.

    And Hizballah attacked a day after Hamas did. On the 8th of October. That’s before Israel’s response.

    Syria, the UN and the USA all agree that Shebaa farms were Syrian territory in 1967.
    Israel was not required to withdraw from the area according to the UN Security Council resolutions.
