    Israel has been bombing and bulldozing Lebanon incessantly for weeks. I would love to see Iran obliterate every single Zionist settlement in the west bank, for a start.

      The BBC doesn’t capture the sequence of events on purpose.

      Israel has been threatening to bomb a densely populated area in a Beirut suburb (this is while there’s supposed to be a ceasefire in Lebanon) > Iran warns Israel saying that they will retaliate if they do > Israel bombs that area > Iran makes good on their retaliation
