There was no hint of de-escalation as Israeli warplanes bombed a residential area of Beirut on Friday, killing at least 31 people, including multiple Hezbollah commanders, and wounding at least dozens of others. Lebanon’s Ministry of Health said that the dead include three women and seven children.
During a Saturday television interview, Israeli Minister of Education Yoav Kisch falsely proclaimed that “there is no difference between Hezbollah and Lebanon.”
“The way things are progressing at the moment, Lebanon will be annihilated,” he vowed. Pressed on the genocidal implications of the word “annihilated,” Kisch said, “Lebanon as we know it will not exist.”
Israel targets combatants and sometimes hits civilians as well. That’s big difference.
Hezbollah and Hamas directly target civilians.

If you personally don’t think the source is reliable, just add it as a comment. This is unjustified censorship just because its from Israel.

Hamas and Hezbollah aren’t ineffectual. The only reason they don’t kill more Israelis, is the immense effort Israel makes in civil defense, shelter construction, missile defense, etc.
October 7th was the most successful by Hamas ever and killed, what? Under 2,000 people?

Compared to Israel killing tens of thousands and displacing millions.
Yeah, they are largely ineffectual.
So ineffectual, they manage to start wars against Israel.
I’d barely call what Hamas or Hezbolla is doing “warfare”. Terrorism? Absolutely. But there’s zero chance for them in an actual war with Israel.
Wikipedia calls it wars:
