Israel isn't colonizing Lebanon or abusing and torturing Lebanese. But Lebanon certainly abuses prisoners: https://www.hrw.org/report/2013/06/26/its-part-job/ill-treat...

So by your logic it is fair game to attack Lebanon due to its treatment of prisoners?

Lebanon also commits war crimes by firing rockets indiscriminately into Israeli population centers.

Why is your rage so selective?

I didn't say this was all happening in Lebanon. The West Bank, Gaza, prisons across Israel. And now, an invasion and razing civilian lives in Lebanon.

> Israel isn’t … abusing and torturing Lebanese.

Israeli-backed army ran a torture center in south Lebanon for years.

Given the level of bloodthirst in Israeli society currently, and the accounts of torture of Palestinians in Israeli custody, I’m afraid that something similar is just around the corner for Lebanese as well.
