Can this be a solution?

The Middle East is a place where you can announce to kill โ€œgroups of peopleโ€ with impunity.
You wouldnโ€™t do that in Venezuela for example, because thatโ€™s in the โ€œwestern hemisphereโ€.
But Middle Easterners can be dehumanized and erased en masse.
Shocking.
This will not end well.

Beside Israel's northern border fence, the bursts of machine-gun fire from inside Lebanon are loud and long, as new Israeli forces push in to take strategic positions near the border. The regular rumble of air strikes echoes over the shattered remains of Shia villages, destroyed during Israel's last ground war there in 2024. A senior military official said on Thursday that Israeli ground forces were taking additional hilltops inside Lebanon - a defensive operation, he said, to better protect Israel's northern communities. But there has been a significant military build-up here. On Friday morning we passed dozens of tanks and armoured bulldozers, newly-positioned right by the border, fuelling growing speculation that a full-scale ground invasion is planned.

Hundreds of thousands of Lebanese civilians have been fleeing Israeli air strikes in Lebanon over the past few days, less than 18 months after a ceasefire ended the last conflict with Israel in November 2024. During that war, Israel fought its way house to house through many Lebanese border villages. Their crushed remains still litter the landscape. But some Hezbollah fighters have reportedly returned to these areas, and Israel is now fighting its way through the area again. Without those assaults on Hezbollah in 2024, which left a key Iranian proxy severely weakened, Israel would have found it much harder to launch its current war on Iran - or the previous one in June last year - without a much higher cost at home.

This is the language used by the BBC to describe Israel's war on Lebanon www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Cited: IDF Chief of Staff, Israeli living near the border, another Israeli, an Israeli politician and a Israeli commentator. No one else.

The Lebanese are just numbers throughout the piece.

#BrainrotPropaganda: You take the patriotic imagery of the past and strip it of all content. There's no narrative left, no promise of meaning, only vibes. The total destruction of meaning is the content, no matter if it's AI generated or manually stitched together from YouTube clips

Refugee status becomes temporary in asylum shake-up Adults and accompanied children claiming asylum will only receive refugee status for 30 months under the changes.

Vulnerable refugees, including children, will now only get temporary protection in the UK. Most migrants will have to wait 10 years to get permanent residency rights. Refugees could have to wait 20 years.
