And nobody really paid attention to it at the time.
Of course, we did as journalists on the ground.
And people talk about
They say that the Gaza model is now coming to Lebanon.
They've spoken about it in terms, I think Smotrich said, we're going to turn Dahia, the southern suburbs of Beirut, into Qanunis.
And then they've used Beit Hanun and Rafah.
Israel Katz said that they're going to destroy all of these villages that they call frontline villages.
And I can tell you now, we've been here for two years.
Those villages are largely already destroyed.
the south of lebanon already looks like gaza whole villages completely um lie in ruins no reconstruction plan and over the last 15 months we've seen israel break that ceasefire and we we call about talk about a ceasefire from november 2024 but there was never a ceasefire you can't have a ceasefire when only one side stops firing and okay 15 000 more than 15 000 violations over the last 15 months
And this included the rigging and destroying of homes, the drone strikes, targeted assassinations, the use of chemical spray to destroy crops.
And we witnessed and filmed all this, the use of white phosphorus.
There's a place called Bleda, a village very close to the border.

The Israelis refused to allow the farmers to tend to their land unless they gave them
all of the contact details and the names of who was going into the fields while we were there, and they started bulldozing the olive groves.
These are olive groves that are older than the state of Israel.
So this, you know, this isn't something new.
This is, you know, what we're seeing now, the escalation on March the 2nd has been going on for a very, very long time.
Now, you ask me why Britain and the United States would support that.
