Israel is said to have orchestrated the attack on alleged Hezbollah operatives in Lebanon, but which ultimately killed civilians including two children. Are its actions in Lebanon pushing the region to war?
In the latest episode of Palestine This Week host Nasim Ahmed and guest Mouin Rabbani provide an in-depth analysis of Israel’s shocking attack on Lebanon. The show opens with a detailed look at what many have described as an act of terrorism by the occupation state, after it used booby-trapped pagers (https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20240917-iran-envoy-hezbollah-members-injured-as-pagers-explode-in-lebanon/) and other communications devices (https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20240918-3-killed-as-more-pagers-explode-in-lebanon/) to kill alleged Hezbollah members in Lebanon. We explore the motives behind the attack and its potential ramifications, whilst considering the ethical and legal questions surrounding the weaponisation of everyday electronic devices and its impact on global trust in Israeli technology.
The discussion then shifts to Hezbollah's response, including their recent rocket attacks on Israeli territory and examines whether these events could lead to a full-scale military confrontation.
Rounding out the episode, the hosts explore other significant regional developments, including Israel's closure of Al Jazeera's offices (https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20240922-israel-raids-orders-closure-of-al-jazeeras-ramallah-office/) in the occupied West Bank and the recent UN General Assembly resolution (https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20240918-un-general-assembly-adopts-resolution-calling-to-end-israel-occupation-within-12-months/) calling for an end to Israel's occupation of Palestinian land and what will come from this vote.
