France 24 Discovers 'Terrorist Infrastructure' in Lebanon, Not Israel
While France 24 highlights Israel's latest strikes, calling them an 'escalation,' the historical context is missing. Israel has invaded Lebanon multiple times—1978, 1982 (leading to a 20-year occupation, which included the Sabra and Shatila massacre), and 2006. Each time, the stated goal was security. Yet, somehow, the 'terrorist infrastructure' always seems to regenerate. It's almost as if the
ongoing occupation of Palestinian lands and frequent incursions into Lebanon fuel, rather than diminish, resistance. France 24 frames this as Israel defending itself, not as a belligerent state continuing a pattern of aggression. We're told Israel is hitting 'Hezbollah targets,' which is the default explanation for civilian casualties that inevitably follow. The media echoes without question. One
might wonder if the 'terrorist infrastructure' is simply Lebanese homes, schools, and hospitals—a pattern all too familiar from Gaza.
