The next stage of the Big Middle East War has begun. On Monday, IDF troops crossed the border and entered southern Lebanon. Over and over again, Hezbollah has stated that there will be “all-out war” if this happens. So now we will watch and see what happens in the coming hours. Will Hezbollah decide to launch thousands upon thousands of missiles toward Israeli cities? Will other parties join the fight? This stage of the war is going to look completely different from Israel’s war against Hamas. Hezbollah is a formidable enemy, and it has very powerful friends.

Earlier on Monday, the Washington Post was reporting that Israel was “planning a limited ground operation in Lebanon”…
Israel is planning a limited ground operation in Lebanon that could start imminently, Israel has told Washington, a U.S. official said — an account corroborated by an Israeli familiar with military deliberations. Israel’s planned campaign would be smaller than its last war against Hezbollah in 2006 and would focus on clearing out militant infrastructure along the border to remove the threat to Israeli border communities, the U.S. official said, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss private talks between the two governments.
Of course using the word “limited” is not going to make Hezbollah feel better about things one bit.
For Hezbollah, this is the big showdown that they have been preparing for all these years.
As Monday progressed, it became clear that something big was about to happen. We were being told that “hundreds of Israeli tanks” were lined up on the border, and that usually only means one thing…
Hundreds of Israeli tanks have lined up along the Lebanon border as fears grow over an anticipated ground invasion that could plunge the Middle East into an all-out war.
It came as Israel also launched a fresh wave of airstrikes against Houthi targets in Yemen on Sunday amid fears that the raging conflict could spill out across the region.
The Israel-Hamas war has escalated in recent days after the IDF said it had wiped out Hezbollah’s top brass in the airstrike on southern Beirut that killed the group’s leader, Hassan Nasrallah.
The Biden administration was hoping for peace until the very last moment, but everyone could see that their efforts weren’t going to make a difference.
Just a little while ago, the Jerusalem Post reported that “IDF soldiers entered southern Lebanon”…
IDF soldiers entered southern Lebanon as part of a ground assault on Monday night as the conflict with Hezbollah continues to escalate, AFP reported.
This is the first IDF ground operation in Lebanon since the Second Lebanon War in 2006.
This follows earlier reports that Israel notified the US that it intends to launch a limited ground operation into Lebanon that could begin within hours, a US official confirmed to CBS on Monday. Other news sources have reported that an Israeli incursion could come within the coming days.
There is no going back now.
I know that I have been saying that a lot lately, but it is true.
When asked about what was happening, one retired Israeli general told CNN that this “is the moment”…
“This is the moment,” Retired Israeli Brig. Gen. Aviv Amiri has told CNN. The southern areas were reportedly subject to carpet bombing raids within the hours prior to the border breach.
“We cannot create terms for Israelis to return to their homes without pushing Hezbollah out of South Lebanon, certainly at minimum eight miles, which would be anti-tank missile range,” Amiri has said.
Even if the Israelis are able to push Hezbollah all the way back to the Litani River, do they actually believe that this will be the end of it?
