Iranian launching of missiles has also infringed Iraqi, Syrian and Jordanian airspace, Jordan going to the extent of closing theirs to commercial flights for a period on safety grounds.

Hardly responsible actions.

Could be worse, they could be carpet bombing one of the most densely populated areas in the world. 2 million people living in an area smaller than the Isle of Man. Instead they hit military targets.

Military targets you say? If American destroyers hadn't assisted in bringing down the Iranian ordnance the civilian death toll could have been significant. For a regime that has consistently and repeatedly denied any connection with Hizbollah in the past, Iran seems to be remarkably keen to get involved.

Quite so.

So what were the reasons for those Isreali incursions?

And why was Lebanon firing rockets at Israel just recently?

After all, it's not like Israel "occupies" any of Lebanon now is it...?

Er, Israel occupies the Shebaa Farms, which yes Lebanon claims is part of Lebanon. That's where Lebanon fired rockets after Oct 7th, which resulted in Israel """"defending"""" itself by firing 8000 of them.

You believe that? You've seen the videos of the missiles hitting their targets right?

For context:

As I understand it the area is part of Syria that was included in the Israeli occupation of the strategic Golan Heights.

So what sized area is the Shebaa farms?

ETA 14 square miles!

Surely I've got that wrong for it's just a pathetic justification for your usual "occupying" nonsense!

So Israel is occupying Lebanon and Lebanon has a right to defend itself, we're agreed.

"Greater Israel"

 One soldiers thoughts, yet time will show this thought is common. This has been coming for a long time. Some might say since 1948, 1996 or 2001. 

Weaken neighbouring countries. Divide and conquer.
