Netanyahu verurteilt Macron wegen seiner Forderungen, die Waffenlieferungen an Israel einzustellen

From The Telegraph:

[Benjamin Netanyahu](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2024/10/01/benjamin-netanyahu-asked-vladimir-putin-stop-iran/), Israel’s prime minister, issued a furious denunciation of [French president Emmanuel Macron](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2024/10/03/eu-could-die-says-emmanuel-macron-us-china-nato/) on Saturday over the latter’s calls for a worldwide arms embargo on Israel.

“I have a message for [president Macron](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/emmanuel-macron/),” Mr Netanyahu said in a video address.

“Israel will win with or without” the support of France, the prime minister said, as he cited the threats to Israel on seven fronts.

Referring to Mr Macron’s remarks as a “disgrace”, Mr Netanyahu said France’s “shame will continue long after the war is won”.

He added that “Iran is behind all the threats against us”.

Mr Netanyahu said: “No country in the world would accept such an attack,” as the one Iran delivered on Tuesday, when [200 missiles were fired at Israel](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2024/10/02/how-iran-could-breach-israel-air-defences-missiles/).

“Israel will not accept it either. Israel has the duty and the right to defend itself and respond to such attacks – and this is what we are going to do.”

Mr Macron said: “I think that today, the priority is that we return to a political solution, that we stop delivering weapons to fight in Gaza.”

Later, he added that he “regrets” Mr Netanyahu’s decision to launch a ground invasion in Lebanon.

The denunciation came as Israel is increasingly confident it has killed the likely successor to Hassan Nasrallah, former Hezbollah leader, in an air strike.

[Contact with Hashem Safieddine has been lost since the Israeli attack on Beirut](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2024/10/05/israel-iran-war-lebanon-hezbollah-latest-news/) on Thursday night, a high-level Hezbollah source told AFP.

“We don’t know if he was at the targeted site, or who may have been there with him,” the source said.

Israel’s strike at Hezbollah’s underground intelligence headquarters in the suburb of Dahiyeh involved around 60 tons of bombs, according to Israel’s N12 news.

Saudi TV channel Al Hadath quoted sources who said that “the scope of the attack in Beirut, which was aimed at the culprit Safieddine, leaves no room to escape alive”.

Reuters quoted Lebanese security sources who said Israeli strikes on Dahiyeh have kept rescue workers from scouring the site of the attack.

Hezbollah has made no comment since the attack. 

Lt Col Nadav Shoshani said on Friday that the Israeli military was still assessing the Thursday night air strikes.

Sigh…

The region has been fighting long before we got here and it’ll be fighting long after we’re all gone. The only thing that’ll make it stop is if someone glasses the region so no one can have it.

I understand that there are larger forces at play here but I sometimes just wonder if it would be easier to just have “the west” pull out and let them bash the shit out of each other.

Bibi listens to nobody except himself and his consortium of mike pences in yamakas

Macron speaks for his own name he should not associate France to this topic and anyway he is nobody now no power anymore

Civ 6 just got real

I imagine Macron doesn’t want a Lebanon/Egypt situation in his own backyard.

fuck netanyahu . he needs to go the way of drumft. put an end to the madness. we need to let our leaders know that we see their bullshit, and know it for what it is. it needs to end one way or the other. he’s going to make it the wrong way.
