In private calls to local leaders across southern Lebanon, Israeli military officials have assured several Christian and Druse communities that they could remain in the evacuation zone. They have pressed them, however, to force out any Lebanese from neighboring Shiite Muslim communities who have sought refuge among them as Israeli bombardments flatten Shiite towns, according to local Christian, Druse and Shiite leaders who spoke to The New York Times. The Shiites make up the majority of southern Lebanon.
Do you have any Shiite Muslims in your attic, Christian?

Ethnic cleansing. The more they do atrocities like this, the more anti-semetic people are going to be, more resistance fighters are going to be molded, and if a new holocaust occurs, no one will stand with them.

They've already gotten away with one holocaust underway so far

Humanity is only going to rise when we finally leave religion behind. It is a mental illness and must be addressed.

Religion is only tangential here. If you snapped your fingers and eliminated all religion, they'd pick any number of other differences to discriminate.

This is far more about ultranationalism than it is about religion. It is also a mental illness and must be addressed.

It's a cancer in society and it poisons everything
