The Da'ahid doctrine being the one that I just mentioned.
And this is, as I said, not new.
Whether in the context of talking about Palestinians in Gaza long before the ongoing genocide, whether in the context of talking about the Lebanese and so on, there has been this train of open utterances of genocidal framing.
on behalf of Israeli politicians and military leaders, one needs to know this to understand why they act in certain ways in Lebanon.
If it was just about targeting their enemies or whatever, that would be one way of doing warfare.
But it wouldn't explain detonating entire villages as they've been doing during the so-called ceasefire.
It wouldn't explain spraying herbicide, which they did about a month ago, over large parts of South Lebanon, including parts of Syria, for that matter, which killed crops and so on.
It wouldn't explain them not allowing farmers to harvest their crops.
It wouldn't explain all of these things.
What would explain all of these things is if you take into account what they say their intentions are in Lebanon, or at the very least what they want it to happen in Lebanon, if that makes sense.
Yeah, 20% of the country.
Lebanon is one of the smallest countries in the world.
And South Lebanon is one of the only regions in the country that you might call like a breadbasket in terms of agriculture.
So yeah, 20% of the population has already been displaced, and those are those that could be registered.
You can imagine numbers being higher than that.
And as I said, a lot of those people have already been displaced a number of times before, even in 2024, when there was the initial escalation.
But many of them even going back to 2006, when there was the war, and in some cases even further back in the 80s and 90s, when the Israelis occupied southern Lebanon.
And I guess this is really important to note because obviously what's happening today is connected to the war on Iran.
Of course, it's directly connected.
But if one only knows this, I think we miss what I would describe as a bit of an Israeli obsession with Lebanon specifically for a long time.
