Why is the United States urging restraint from Israel in its conflict with Hezbollah?

Everyone else in the world wants to crush their enemies just as much as the US does.

It causes the US to push Israel to restrain itself, which just ends up empowering its enemies. It causes Israel society to resent Western countries that bomb the crap out of Afghanistan for two decades, but ask Israel to exercise restraint the day a war begins. It leaves the US vulnerable to attacks at the hands of those Israel is trying to stop. Why? All to try and gain recognition for solving problems of the Middle East they’ll likely not even coming close to solve.

More often than not, it’s probably preferable if they just let Israel make decisions for itself. It’d be better for everyone.

If my boyfriend watches porn, does it mean he doesn’t think I’m good enough? If I am good enough, why does he still watch? Am I not beautiful enough?

In the Middle East, strength is valued and respected more than restraint.

Countries and organizations hellbent on Israel’s destructions don’t care about what the West think of them or their actions.

Because that’s what it does.

Do you ever feel like you are doing good, but would do better if people hadn’t blamed you or even bothered you? I have gotten lonely, but I always am up to something (creating my destiny).

There are many things about Middle Eastern politics Americans tend to not understand.

Including (but not limited to):

The likelihood of creating peace in the region is minuscule, and there probably far easier and more likely paths to carve out your legacy as a world leader.

Why don't the EU leaders who want even more war instead of peace send their sons (and daughters) to fight in Ukraine? Zelensky accepts volunteers this very moment. 3,000 dollars a month, all expenses paid.

Especially when the president is a Democrat.

Israel is doing the world a favor by destroying groups that would gladly attack the States just as badly as they attacked Israel on October 7th.

These and other misunderstandings lead to poor decisions about how to react to a situation like the current one.

Can we trust the Bible when Constantine and the First Council of Nicaea took out many books of the Bible and altered existing translation by removing things?
