The objective of the pager attack and Israel’s massive all out continuous air assault on Lebanon is to bait Hezbollah into starting an all out regional war.
Why does Israel want massive cataclysmic total war? Because they are losing the propaganda war for their war in Gaza.
Prior to October 7th, Israel was on the cusp of signing a normalization treaty with Saudi Arabia. If brought to fruition it would have been the final nail in the coffin for any hope of Palestine receiving its own state.
Now, Saudi Arabia has backed out of these talks and the United Nations has voted 143-9 in favor of a resolution to recognize Palestinian statehood. A reality that would have never been imaginable a year ago.
With the world having seen the images and stories of the Gaza genocide, Israel is now a pariah across world capitols and is losing strategically, militarily, and diplomatically.
Their only hope to get out of the mess is by starting a massive cataclysmic war that draws in America and diverts attention away from the Gaza genocide narrative and instead towards the narrative of them being attacked by US arch enemy Iran.
