Aoun says Israeli strike 'a dangerous warning' of intentions against Lebanon
President Joseph Aoun condemned an Israeli strike early Tuesday on Beirut's southern suburbs, calling on international allies to support the country's right to full territorial sovereignty.
"Israel's persistence in its aggression requires more effort from us in addressing Lebanon's friends around the world and rallying them in support of our right to full sovereignty over our land," Aoun said in a statement released by the presidency.
Aoun also called the strike "a dangerous warning" about Israel's intentions against Lebanon.

It seems their intention is to rely on the government of Lebanon to disarm Hezbollah and use the legal system to punish those using Lebanon territory as a base for military action against them ... OR ... to kill everyone so involved, one by one.
Especially since we see that they can pick an apartment building clean of a single Hezbollah operative, is there a third way that would be less disruptive to Lebanese seeking peace and prosperity for our selves and our children?

So long as Lebanon remains committed to Israel's annihilation, Israel will act to neutralize those taking steps to harm its inhabitants. Israel lives in peace with its Arab neighbors -- Jordan and Egypt -- who don't pose a threat.
