Hezbollah said the “first phase” of its strikes against Israel “ended with complete success,”claiming that it launched 320 rockets and a barrage of drones toward Israel.

Hezbollah said it carried out strikes towards Israel in response to the killing of top military commander Fu’ad Shukr last month in the southern suburbs of Beirut, a populous neighborhood that is also the Iran-backed group’s stronghold.

      How is it not pre-emptive if Hezbollah was indeed setting up the ol’ rocket barrage?

      Psst. How was Israel ready to launch a surprise war of aggression unless it was already setting up weapons?

      Remind me which countries get to arm weapons without alarming their neighbours and which don’t get to, again? I need to know which countries get secret violence advantages over the others.

        Sure! If you can tell me a bit more on the ‘surprise war of aggression’ you’re referencing I’'ll be happy to comment
