Why is israel bombing lebanon,?
To get a full understanding, we have to go back a long time ago when the Israelis were expelled from 109 locations and the British mandate and Balfour declaration gave Israel a part of Palestine occupied then by the British forces. Israel or to be more precise the Israeli Zionists had their own agenda to attain their “promised land” – land between the Al Forat & the Nile Rivers – and Israel began to invade parts of Lebanon, Syria, Egypt and more parts of Palestine.
