@@AminBoualwan ps And Israel pulled out under the UNSC resolution seeking peace and Hezbollah failed to comply, they should have disbanded and moved north above the Litani river line to allow peace keeping forces to enforce a buffer zone but they didn't, the increased the number of men arms, what exactly do you expect Israel to do, sit back and take what is thrown at them.
7:13 - "we couldn't just leave and sit in Cyprus for one year". Well the tens of thousands of Israelis that live near the border with Lebanon had to do just that. For nearly a year they are torn away from their homes, lives, schools, work, because of the war that Hezbollah opened against Israel on October 8th. The difference is that Israel cares about its citizens and provided these people the means to live in hotels during this time, not that that can replace their homes and everyday lives.
And the Palestinians should go back to Jordan , Syria, Qatar, Lebanon, Iraq, Egypt....the list goes on... or just LIVE PEACEFULLY in Gaza and the west Bank as they the 2 million Arabs live in Israel
And they should be quite happy in one of the dozens of Arab countries as there are no jews living in them having been forced to leave every single one....
@@elanabogner5938 Except these Israelis today don't have any connection there, why do you DNA testing is heavily restricted in Israel? They're all Europeans or North American. I say ONE state where everyone can live in peace eith EQUAL rights..... Muslims, Jews and Christians as they did before the formation of Isreal.
I am not being critical, as this bloke and his family is in danger, but wouldn't it be a decent idea to drive north to the Turkish border, then fly back from there? I am assuming that he would have a car, having lived there for 25 years.....
The only countries that have a land border with Lebanon are Syria and Israel. You can't really go south because that is where the front-line conflict is. Syria isn't doing too hot at the moment with a defacto civil war but in theory, you have two major cities to go to, drive east for Damascus and north to Homs. However, the best you could do is get a ferry or plane to Cyprus, either the Turkish or Greek side of the island, a former British colony with lots of accommodations for tourists that are not at peak time. I recommend Paphos.
Honestly, there is no need to do anything. Life for the majority of Lebanese is going on as normal. Only certain areas are under attack, and where this guy is talking from is a different demographic. The attack will last a few weeks and then a ceasefire. It happened so many times in Lebanon in the past. Even during the worst of the Lebanese civil war, most areas weren't affected.
@Roman_Eagle, there is a luxury yachting company about a mile away that charges $1000 a person to Cyprus. I think they sail when they have 10 passengers.
Did this loving family man Dan Harper think he was talking his kids to the Farmborough Air Show? And after a few days decided he had seen enough and it was time to go home. After 350 days of rockets from Lebanon into Israel is Mr Harper not surprised that Israel is finally retaliating. Hezbollah Terrorists have been firing rockets since Oct 8th 2023 for 350 days but it was only when Israel gave Hezbollah a bloody nose, and a punch in the eye literally with the beeper, walkie talkies and a massive onslaught of rockets which has destroyed thousands of launch sites thousands of rockets, killing hundreds of Hezbollah Terrorists has the UN called for a ceasefire. After 350 days the UN came to rescue of its paymaster, not a word about 65,000 displaced people, refugees in their own country,
One hundred thousand Israelis left their homes on October 8, 2023 and have not returned to their homes since then. Since then, Israel has been bombarded from Lebanon all the time
i feel sorry for anyone traped in a place like that. but pepole in the north of israll have been dispalcesd since october. you also talk abuet lebanon biing hit and showing missiles that isreal as raw fotege abit missleading,..... ??? i value all life but lets not get the linse tangeld. what the isrealys are doing is attempting to let the civilan population retun home. becese for watha is almost a year hezbola have been hiting home kids playgounds in the name of alla or what ever excuse thay come up with.

@P.H.888 I keep telling you there is no need, guys. Stay there and enjoy the sun, good food, and majestic scenery. Also the legendary hospitality of the Lebanese. Just don't join Hizbollah.
why are they even suffering for??? this war has nothing to do with with Lebanon .....they are suffering for the war they have nothing to do with or benefit from.....Hamas is on a blink of destruction they chose to join the dying team, now they are facing the same fate with those they are helping ....Lebanon is in necessary war that is leading to unnecessary suffering of its citizen
This guy is full of BS. He could have gone a long ago. Also he can move to the north of Lebanon where Christians and Sunnis live mostly. They can leave from Port Tripoli to Cyprus. .
UK Embassies World Wide are totally useless. My companies and I have suffered in commercial terms from their inefficiency. Just a holiday time for diplomats .
I think it's because the country is very seductive in terms of its view, the baby-blue colour of its waters, sand, warmth, beautiful food that's grown there, Mediterranean-like life, perhaps a bit cheaper, etc etc etc, tolerance for individual culture and religion. I think it would be a welcome change from the English or Canadian winters to the average person.
My relatives who live in Lebanon have been telling us for almost a year that they have been expecting this conflict. It was just a matter of when. I know quite a number of people who are still there on holidays also who did not heed the many, many warnings not to go there. I am very thankful my family and friends are not in the conflict zones and I pray that they stay safe🙏
I'm sorry for them, and all innocent people there caught up in this. What do they feel about Hezbo? I wish they will understand Israel is not their enemy.
He met and married a Lebanese woman. I don't see a problem there, but given the recent history of that country, I would not have stayed there until now.... I see your point, but he married a Lebanese girl and decided to live there and that's fair enough. (At least he is "British" and not merely a passport holder with a hijab!!
@@Mike-tb5gj Yes, very good point. I imagine it is almost impossible to just leave ones life behind. Let us hope that he has a very supportive family in the U.K.
There will be no peace there while hate is taught to children, encouraged in adults, exulted in, and worn as a badge of honour by so called leaders as to who hates Israel the most. Almighty God's second most important commandment is '' To love one's neighbour as oneself'. Till islam starts to accept that, and reject their hatred, they will always be in turmoil, and one just has to look at Syria, Yemen, Sudan, as some examples, they don't even love their own folk.
philipwilkes2780. You must really irritate everyone around you with your OCD. It so bad it has spilled onto the internet and now you annoy complete strangers!
As long as he dosn't have any rockets stored in the attic or Hizbolah operational taking place in the basement he should be fine where he is, otherwise he will definitely be a sitting duck.
Advice from the British Embassy anywhere is superfluous. I was in Tehran in 1979. We expats knew then that the embassy had no interests beyond their own. The Iranians I knew understood the situation and did everything as was needed firstly with my family evacuation and then myself. I will still vouch for the Iranian people, who will survive all these extraneous difficulties.
I’m American so maybe I’m not understanding something here culturally. But if I were traveling overseas and I knew that there was a group like Hezbollah sending 🚀s into a neighboring country, I wouldn’t view that time as “okay”… I’d be under the impression that the neighboring country would respond in kind at any moment. You sat there for 11 months, 8000+ 🚀s in thinking everything would just be okay? I don’t understand. And if I decided to live in that country that I traveled to, I would be out in the streets protesting Hezbollah, doing anything I can, because I WOULD EXPECT A RESPONSE EVENTUALLY. Did everyone think Israel was just going to sit and take the continuous 🚀s? Especially after the one that landed on those kids? Please help me understand 🤦🏾♀️
So there are many ways out they are just "not for us" or "not viable" and this guy claims to care about the safety of his "young family"…? I'm confused
Lebanese ppl must choose what they want .choose the terorrist hesbollah or prefer to remove the hesbollah in their country but bcause their govt wanted the terorrist to stay in your country maybe bcause their accepting money from Iran to stay hesbollah in power.
