I lived in Lebanon for 15 years, and during that time I visited southern Lebanon more times than I can remember.
The first few times I went to the Israeli-Lebanese border, there was just a fence.
You could see the beautiful farms on the Israeli side. Sometimes you’d notice people going about their work, and every now and then an Israeli patrol passing between the double fence.
On the Lebanese side, I saw the Shia villages, people immersed in a culture of sacred violence.
Flags everywhere. Images of Khamenei, Hassan Nasrallah, and Hezbollah fighters. Slogans on buildings that made everything feel heavy and ugly.
A few years later, Israel reinforced the fence. There had been harassment of soldiers, and more security was needed. Still, you could catch glimpses of the other side, the contrast remained.
A couple of years later, I was sad when I went to the usual spot and found a massive wall. All I could see was the ugliness on our side.
Israel never initiated aggression against us. It was pushed to build checkpoints, fences, and walls, and when necessary, to come in and deal with those who know nothing but death.
Mario frames his post as if Israel wants to occupy and control Lebanon, when in reality Israel is doing what the incompetent Lebanese government failed to do for decades.
Israel wants to live in peace with its neighbors. It is the neighbors, driven by a divine mandate to erase Israel, who keep bringing out the worst in it.
