Hezbollah committed acts of terrorism and political violence and intimidation in Lebanon
Hezbollah was fighting with Assad against the people of Syria and is, if not directly, at the very least indirectly responsible for the countless atrocities of the Assad regime against the people of Syria.
Again, Hezbollah could have chosen to simply fight Israeli aggression and leave it at that and I’d support them, but they didn’t.
‘Both-sides’-ing this makes no sense
You’re correct, ‘both-sides’-ing creates a false dichotomy. There are way more than just those 2 factions in this conflict. And sure, maybe Israel is the worst one, I’m not going to argue either way. But Hezbollah is pretty high up on the asshole ranking.
No amount of hizbollah intimidation of lebanese who hate them will remove their right to resist occupation. We are not in the position to find a perfect resistance groups. The day a more moral resistance group appear I would side with them over Hizbollah.
Hizbollah fought the groups who wanted to oust the butcher Assad not to protect Syrians but to cut weapons from Hizbollah used to fight the genocidal colonial power Israel is.
Was the axis and allies equally bad during world war 2 becuase many of the allies countries was colonial powers and was also involved in attrocities?

Never argued against that point.
Your problem is insisting to pick a side.
You can acknowledge Hezbollah’s right to resist without siding with them. This isn’t a fucking sports match. Seriously, wtf?

That’s some serious mental gymnastics

Why are the only two options “good and bad” or “equally bad”
It’s a false dichotomy.
Both sides can be bad while being differently bad.
And some of the allies in WW2 were definitely bad, especially the Soviet Union, who just replaced one occupying force in Eastern Europe with another.
Your problem is not picking a side. You a have 3 options . Israel the colonial genocidal power threatening the whole region with more colonization regardless of anything, the useless Lebanese army who let Israel occupy with no push back in 82 and in 2006, 2026 and Hezbollah who is a resistance groups. Israel killed multiple Lebanese soldiers , the army did not retaliate . You can support Hezbollah right to defend the Lebanese state while condemning any atrocities they commit.
That’s some serious mental gymnastics
It is called context, something you lack. I condemn the target of civilians of all sides during the Syrian civil war including Hezbollah.

Context again . Nazi germany was a bigger threat in world war 2. The only aggressor in the context was the axis

Also France and the British empire two of the bloodiest colonial power
Can you quote the part where I disputed the fact that Hezbollah exists because of Israeli aggression, occupation, and terrorism?
I fully acknowledge and agree with that.
What do you think an aggressor is?
Or anti-colonialism?
You straight up equated Hezbollah with Israel as ‘both’ colonizers and terrorists.
‘Both-sides’-ing this makes no sense unless your goal is to manufacture consent for the Israeli aggression, or complete ignorance.
