THREAD: The issue of Hezbullah's tents in Israeli occupied territories represented a new challenge to the Israeli army and the decision makers in Israel, because the land is internationally recognised Lebanese, so they can't rally the West and Media for it.
👍15👀2
⋯ Nonetheless, the land is now defacto Israeli territory so the Israeli army has the duty to remove Hezbullah from it, but at the same time its not worth risking a war over it just yet.

⋯ The nature of the land delayed the identification of the Hezbullah members in this territory, but the embarrassment was caused when the issue was leaked to the media.

Netanyahu and the IDF wanted to keep it secret.

⋯ Hezbullah's aim is simple: Add pressure on Israel...to a threshold just below forcing the Israeli to attack or retaliate.

This is why one tent was withdrawn.

It's like...loosen the line in the tug-of-war game before you pull with force.

⋯ It's evident the Israeli army wont be ordered to attack the tent with conventional weapons. Had killing the Hezbullah fighters been an option, it would have been done weeks ago.
👍3
⋯ The Israeli army would flush Hezbullah back into Lebanon without any casualties.

This is risky, as it could cause a clash with armed Hezbullah members in the tent thinking they might be under attack or cause some to retreat deeper into Israel by mistake.
🔥2😐1
⋯ On the other side, when Israel intends to launch an operation against Lebanon, we won't know in the media. We don't know X-prime minister did what ke said what.

We will know when it happens.
👍3👎1
⋯ As for Hezbullah, they never were in a position to start one, but rather react to one. This won't change.

However, calm can only ever last long. And it never lasts too long. END

Unlike rumors, there is no suspicious Israeli army movement or reinforcements anywhere in Shebaa farms.

In a statement yesterday by the Lebanese parliament speaker Nabih Berri, after meeting UN officials, he stressed that:

- The two Hezbullah tents are in Lebanon occupied lands, as internationally recognised through the UN order 1701

- Al-Ghajar is a Lebanese town

The progress made to fence the Lebanese part of Al-Ghajar town that falls on Lebanese territory, at the blue line.

⋯ And unlike Israeli claims that the IDF has withdrawn from the town, recent images shows the army in the Syrian section of it.

The Syrian and Lebanese portions are interconnected and not separated.
