The Existential War That Is Rapidly Escalating In The Middle East

M Snyder

What we just witnessed in the Middle East shocked the entire globe.  Sadly, a lot more death and destruction is coming.  Whether they are both willing to admit it or not, the truth is that Israel and Hezbollah are at war.  It is just a limited war for now, but it is only a matter of time before it escalates into an “all-out war” that kills vast numbers of people on both sides.  It doesn’t take much imagination to figure out how this ends.  When there is an existential conflict that involves two parties which absolutely refuse to back down, only one party is ultimately going to survive.  Unfortunately, most people have absolutely no idea what is coming.

It appears that we may have already reached a point of no return.  After the attack that occurred on Tuesday, Hezbollah will be more determined to wipe out Israel than ever before…

Lebanon’s health ministry updates the death toll in the pager explosions to 11.

Another 4,000 are wounded, including 400 in critical condition, according to ministry numbers cited by Arabic-language media.

If Hezbollah was smart, they would throw in the towel and pull their forces north of the Litani River.

But that isn’t going to happen.

Instead, the thirst for revenge will just be even stronger than it was before.

Of course Israel is not going to back down either.

There are approximately 100,000 Israelis that have not been able to return to their homes in northern Israel for months, and Hezbollah continues to strike targets in Israeli territory on a regular basis.

So it appears that the IDF will soon be conducting a major military operation in southern Lebanon…

Israel has for months warned that it could launch a military operation to drive Hezbollah away from its border.

Orna Mizrachi, a former Israeli national security official, said in a call with reporters that the pager attack could signal that Israel is about to change its Gaza war strategy, where it has been fighting Hamas for almost a year, and move its main front to the north to fight Hezbollah.

There are some experts that are suggesting that Israel may initiate such an operation before the U.S. presidential election in November.

If an all-out war between Israel and Hezbollah erupts, it is going to make the Biden/Harris administration look really bad, and it will likely cost Kamala Harris thousands of Muslim votes in Michigan and other swing states.

Needless to say, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu does not want Kamala Harris to win the election.

But when all-out war erupts, Israel isn’t just going to be fighting Hezbollah.

For years, Iran has been arming groups throughout the region “for this very showdown”…

The Houthis in Yemen, Hezbollah in Lebanon, Shiite militias in Syria and Iraq, and the terrorist organizations in Gaza, Judea and Samaria – for years Iran has been equipping its allies for this very showdown.

If all of Israel’s enemies unite, IDF forces will quickly find themselves outnumbered.

But of course Israel possesses technology that the other side does not.

When push comes to shove, both sides will try to absolutely crush one another, and that will be truly horrifying to watch.

It would be in everyone’s best interest for opposing sides to step back from the brink in the Middle East, in Ukraine, and elsewhere.

The wars that are in our future are going to involve weapons of unthinkable destructive power, and those wars are going to be far more horrible than most people would dare to imagine.
