This is not a temporary incursion but a systematic strategy aimed at redrawing borders through violence.<\/p>\n<p data-parapraph=\"3\">According to the digital outlet Spanish Revolution, this operation mirrors the military tactics seen in Gaza, combining three fundamental aspects: massive bombings, forced population displacement, and the systematic destruction of infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p data-parapraph=\"4\">Border towns like Kafr Kila, which have experienced a constant demographic decline for years, are now at the forefront of a rapid territorial vacuuming. Recent attacks have targeted not only military positions but also roads, hospitals, water systems, and residential areas. Far from being collateral damage, this is an operational pattern that replicates the model used in Gaza: first, the essentials for survival are destroyed, then the population is forced to flee, paving the way for occupation.<\/p>\n<p>A Historical Pattern That Undermines Exceptionality<\/p>\n<p data-parapraph=\"5\">To grasp the magnitude of what is unfolding in southern Lebanon, it must be contextualized historically, debunking any arguments of exceptionality. The Zionist regime\u2019s stance towards Lebanon is neither new nor situational. Since Israel\u2019s establishment in 1948, southern Lebanese territory has witnessed invasions in 1979, 1982, and 2006, alongside a prolonged occupation from 1985 until 2000.<\/p>\n<p data-parapraph=\"6\">During this time, the alliance with local militias led to not only territorial control but also episodes of extreme violence against civilians.<\/p>\n<p data-parapraph=\"7\">In this context, Spanish Revolution\u2019s article recalled the atrocities of Sabra and Shatila, where 3,500 civilians were killed, emphasizing that \u00abthis is not an isolated episode; it is a continuity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-parapraph=\"8\">These references serve as reminders that current devastation is not an anomaly within the conflict but the latest manifestation of a historical continuity of expansion and control.<\/p>\n<p>Zionist Expansion Under the Umbrella of \u201cSecurity\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-parapraph=\"9\">In its official narrative, the Zionist regime attempts to frame its operations as exercising legitimate defense. However, military actions on the ground indicate that neutralizing Hezbollah is merely a facet of a broader plan seeking to unilaterally redraw borders.<\/p>\n<p data-parapraph=\"10\">This concept, known as \u201cGreater Israel,\u201d has both religious and political roots, advocating territorial expansion over neighboring countries.<\/p>\n<p data-parapraph=\"11\">While it may seem a marginal notion in international discussions, various declarations from Israeli leaders have placed it at the political forefront. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Original article: Israel traslada a L\u00edbano la receta de Gaza: destrucci\u00f3n, desplazamiento y ocupaci\u00f3n The southern region of&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":30790,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[32],"tags":[16586,16587,16588,16589,16590,16591,189,93,4024],"class_list":["post-37723","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-lebanon","tag-genocidio-israeli","tag-ataque-a-gaza","tag-ataque-a-libano","tag-genocidio","tag-genocidio-a-gaza","tag-genocidio-al-pueblo-palestino","tag-invasion","tag-lebanon","tag-libano"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@iran\/116297517211760971","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37723","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=37723"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37723\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/30790"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=37723"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=37723"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=37723"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
