Lebanon Asks America to Stop Israel, FM Calls US “Key to Our Salvation”

Yikes.

You don’t ever want to be in this situation.

This is like asking the Grim Reaper to save your life.

An Israeli airstrike on Beirut killed a senior Hezbollah commander on Tuesday as cross-border rocket attacks by both sides increased fears of a full-fledged war in the Middle East and Lebanon said only Washington could help end the fighting.

Hezbollah early on Wednesday confirmed senior commander Ibrahim Qubaisi was killed by Israeli airstrikes on Tuesday on the Lebanese capital as Israel announced earlier. Israel said Qubaisi headed the group’s missile and rocket force.

Israel’s offensive since Monday morning has killed 569 people, including 50 children, and wounded 1,835 in Lebanon, Health Minister Firass Abiad told Al Jazeera Mubasher TV.

The new offensive against Hezbollah has stoked fears that nearly a year of conflict between Israel and the militant Palestinian group Hamas in Gaza is escalating and could destabilise the Middle East. Britain urged its nationals to leave Lebanon and said it was moving 700 troops to Cyprus to help its citizens evacuate.

The U.N. Security Council said it would meet on Wednesday to discuss the conflict.

“Lebanon is at the brink. The people of Lebanon – the people of Israel – and the people of the world – cannot afford Lebanon to become another Gaza,” U.N. Secretary General Antonio Guterres said.

He said, with a mouth full of Oreo cookies.

Seriously, this guy is the best friend the Jews have. Everyone on earth fundamentally understands that an obese person is not serious, nothing they say is serious.

At the U.N., which is holding its General Assembly this week, U.S. President Joe Biden made a plea for calm. “Full-scale war is not in anyone’s interest. Even if a situation has escalated, a diplomatic solution is still possible,” he said.

Lebanon’s Foreign Minister Abdallah Bou Habib criticized Biden’s address as “not strong, not promising” and said the U.S. was the only country “that can really make a difference in the Middle East and with regard to Lebanon.” Washington is Israel’s longtime ally and biggest arms supplier.

The United States “is the key … to our salvation,” he told an event in New York City hosted by the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.

Yeah, well.

You’re not getting saved then, because the US is not in the savior business.

They’re in the Jew business.

If Lebanon said “please, America, come kike us really hard,” then they could get their wish.

Just So You Understand

This is the Lebanon official government saying this, not Hezbollah, which is a militia and a sort of separate government. The official government usually always plays good cop in these things, which is what they are doing here.
