Since the outbreak of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the situation in the Middle East has become extremely volatile, with the Houthis and Allah forces in Lebanon being involved. No, even the United States can't stand the crazy behavior of the Israeli army, and Biden warned Tel Aviv that he does not want to see this conflict spread to the Lebanese region, and condemned the actions of the Israeli army.
The United States is a hardcore ally of Israel, why would it condemn the actions of the Israeli army?In fact, what Israel attacked happened to be the Lebanese ** army backed by the United States. According to CNN, since October 7, the Israeli army has launched at least 34 attacks on Lebanese military and civilian facilities using various types of artillery, drones and so on, resulting in 1 death and no less than 8 injuries of varying degrees, in addition to the destruction of many military facilities and civilian infrastructure.
U.S. support for the Lebanese Army, which gave the U.S. military a partner in the region, was attacked by Israeli forces, and a senior U.S. ** said the U.S. believed that at least some of the attacks were accidental, and that Israel intended to target the powerful Lebanese Allah Party, which also operates on the Lebanese-Israeli border and continues to attack Israeli military bases.
But the insane Israeli army has completely failed to take the United States into account. They even used white phosphorus bombs, which violate the United Nations Convention on Certain Practices, to hit targets in Paris. According to the Washington Post, the White House is deeply concerned that U.S.-made white phosphorus shells have been found among shell fragments in several areas along the border between Lebanon and Israel.
In the eyes of analysts, the White House's concerns come from two sources. One is the fear that the massive use of white phosphorus bombs will ruin the image of the United States. After all, most of the first-class ammunition in the hands of the Israeli army is provided by the United States, and this blatant disregard for international rules will make the White House blamed by the whole world.
The other is that it will cost the United States a lot of benefits. Israel blatantly ignored the opinion of the White House, and used the contraband to smash white phosphorus bombs at the Lebanese armyIf they encounter this situation in the future, will it be the same fate as the Lebanese ** army?This is a great blow to the prestige of the United States among its allies.
It can only be said that Biden is purely self-inflicted this time. If it weren't for the repeated connivance of the White House, the Israeli army would not have attacked everywhere so recklessly, and if the United States had not provided Israel with ammunition, the Lebanese army would not have been harmed by white phosphorus bombs.
