Israel is already claiming victory over southern Lebanon as Israel Defense Forces (IDF) planted an Israeli flag – watch below – in Maroun al-Ras in southern Lebanon this week. The "Israel Breaking" (@IsraelBreaking) X / Twitter account also confirmed the location of the flag at coordinates 33.0986566, 35.4511964. This move by Israel is hardly a surprise considering what the Benjamin Netanyahu regime has been saying ever since the Oct. 7, 2023 Hamas attack about fighting "Amalek" and taking back all the land so Greater Israel can be finalized. By laying claim to southern Lebanon, Israel is letting the world know that this is not just about fighting in "self-defense" so Israel can simply "exist" – it is about Israel invading and taking over entire countries as its own. (Related: The other day, the Jerusalem Post published an article, but then removed it a few days later, claiming that Israel has a biblical mandate to "conquer" Lebanon and turn it into Greater Israel.)

Invasion and conquest for Greater Israel

This latest round of invasion and conquest started in the Gaza Strip after October 7 and has since expanded to include Lebanon and eventually Iran. Israel is committed to seizing control of land that its government feels belongs to them, regardless of what anyone else thinks about it. Israel failed to fully capture Maroun al-Ras back in 2006 during the last skirmish, so now its military is showing the world with this flag stunt that it has returned to take what it could not take nearly 20 years ago. One X / Twitter user pointed out that technically the flag was placed to the south of Maroun al-Rasmuch on the outskirts much closer to Lebanon's border with Israel. The IDF invasion of southern Lebanon that began on Monday was led by Division 98, which is headed by Brig. Gen. Guy Levi who also led the commando unit, the Egoz special forces unit, the paratroopers and Brigade 7 of the Tank Corp. From December 2023 through March 2024, Division 98 toppled Hamas in Khan Yunis, its strongest fighting brigade. "We have a great honor to write history in the North just like we did in Gaza," commented Egoz Commander Lt. Col. "A," as they are calling him. "We started with lower-grade operations, but today, we are starting a more substantial invasion in order to return the northern residents to their homes. This is a substantial matter because we have not invaded Lebanon since 2006. I trust you and am very proud of you and know we will continue to write history." According to the IDF, it launched a series of "limited, localized, and targeted ground raids based on precise intelligence against Hezbollah terrorist targets and infrastructure in southern Lebanon," which resulted in the Israeli flag stunt. IDF will now carry out "a methodical plan set out by the General Staff and the Northern Command, which soldiers have trained and prepared for in recent months." U.S. State Department spokesman Matthew Miller told the press on Monday that Israel informed Washington about these "limited operations targeting Hezbollah infrastructure near the border." IDF spokesperson Avichay Adraee also issued a statement in Arabic warning residents of Beirut's suburbs to evacuate for their own safety, while fellow IDF spokesperson Daniel Hagari came forward to urge the media not to "share reports about the forces' activities, due to the security of our forces." "Stick to the official reports only and do not spread irresponsible rumors," Hagari commanded the media. The latest news about the conflict in the Middle East can be found at Prophecy.news.
