You ask what socialists have to say about the invasion of the Lebanon.Here goes!

Israel has launched a full scale, all out war on the Lebanese people...not just the resistance fighters of Hezbollah.It has been supported by the USA which has long provided the latest weapons ,training and finance to Israel.

If the Lebanon is smashed then the sights will be turned on Syria and then Iran.

Meanwhile Gaza continues to be attacked with missiles,bombs,tanks,artillery and snipers.Israel has a history of barbarism that goes back for many decades.

Resistance to this imperial attack is essential.

There is no equivalence between those doing the fighting.
Israel has a record of invading other countries while Hezbollah is a resistance organisation stemming the forward onslaught of both Israel and the USA . It is being supported by a growing tide of arab,christian and muslim opinion across the Middle East.
