I said this earlier today—first have the negotiations, and when they’re over, that’s when you announce you did it. This always happens. Announce scheduled peace talks, and you get things like—“Lebanon had to respond with force because Israel crossed the border to cut down a tree”.

Coupled with, “Israel has no right to use force even though unnamed people are shooting rockets at it’s citizens from Gaza”, or that “Israeli soldiers shouldn’t respond to attacks from a gang of knife wielding peacelovers also armed with metal bars and guns.”

Agreed, but look at the post just before yours. They didn’t even cross the border. They were cutting down a tree in Israel.
