U.S. officials are anticipating that the fighting between Israel and Hezbollah will increase significantly in the coming days, potentially sparking an all-out war between the two sides.

American officials have long said that both Israel and Hezbollah want to avoid war. But tensions are at an all-time high following Israel’s consecutive attacks on Hezbollah in Lebanon this week. The latest analysis inside the Biden administration is that it will be difficult for both sides to de-escalate, according to two senior U.S. officials familiar with the conversations.

    It’s going to be disastrous for Israel if they keep opening up new war fronts, especially if it coincides with beginning to lose funding and military tech from supportive countries. How do they honestly see this ending? I feel bad for the Israelis in Israel that don’t support this government or its two criminal “wars.” Inevitably they who also suffer for these decisions.

    Did Politico somehow miss the recent zionist attacks on Lebanon?

    Shit has already been “escalated” into previously unknown realms of terrorism.
