Hezbollah begging for mercy proves Israel is right to fight —and shrug off Biden’s terrible advice

Lebanese terror outfit Hezbollah has changed its tune: After spending weeks trumpeting an apocalyptic end for Israel, the cadre of bloodthirsty cowards is begging the Jewish state to let up. NY Post Editorial Page Executive Editor Sam Munson shares this story.

“We support the political efforts led by [Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih] Berri under the banner of achieving a cease-fire,” whined Hezbollah deputy leader Naim Qassem — for the first time not conditioning a truce on an end to the war in Gaza.

Turns out bravely attacking your enemies with uncanny precision and skill, rather than begging them for peace, is effective as a military strategy.

They were begging for war when the Jews were busy at Gaza, now that they're being attacked they're crying for peace? LoL

Everyone is tough until they get punched in the face, "Mike Tyson".

Israel already told you to stop when you started bombing the northern Israel but you tried to be stubborn and deaf so that's the consequences of your actions

[deven.oauditx]

They rejected the UN peace resolution 1701 25 years ago and have been firing missiles into Israel for one year since 8th October 2023. What makes you think that they will respect any ceasefire agreement between the weak Lebanon Government and Israel? Taqqiya?

[ashleymoore]

13k rockets and now they play victim to the woke world

[casienwhey]

No point for a ceasefire. It's been tried multiple times before and how did that work out? Israel should go all in.

[magaman]

The IDF is not going to let Hezbollah regroup or rearm!!! That’s the IDF way!!!

[luckypaul]

No way! Did they show mercy when they eliminated more than 1200 people who were innocent civilians?

[henrydcosta]

You should never start a war which you can't handle.

[LuisaLikuvaga]

They were all getting carried away with the thought that they are untouchable and impenetrable...

[bjlewis]

To show 'mercy' to those who gave none, is pure cruelty and insult to a victim..and ultimately an act of similar pure evil, to all the world's innocent & honourable.

[alantemby]

No to a cease fire ... Israel is doing just fine ...

[sandeeknight]

Wanting a ceasefire but still sending rockets into Israel?

[thewintergardener]

I think Hamas & Hezbollah were expecting far more support & military participation from their main backer Iran...

[infinit]

You cannot and should not trust them .Betrayal, untrustworthyness is in their vein in fact these are permitted in their faith .

[merlindavilla]

what ceasefire is Hezbollah talking? what about the rockets fired to civilians in Isrsel ?

[johnclarke]

Mercy is for the merciful. Islamists need not apply.

[johnearle]

Anyone can pick a fight in a bar. Not everyone can win a fight in a bar. Hamas and Hezbollah thought Israel had a glass jaw. Mmm, not so much.

[superduper]

Sorry, the word “ceasefire” is not currently found in Israel’s dictionary. What exactly does it mean?

[richardheedfpv]

They've had a rude awakening.
The courage and determination of Israel and the IDF is something they don't comprehend.
I stand with Israel and the IDF.
