  1. UN = Useless Nations

  2. These attacks by Israel not happened in a vacuum? Right Antonio Huenteres 😂😂😂😂😂

  3. Israel has every right to defend itself. Who told Lebanon to get involved in this war?

  4. Only IDF is required to not have colletaral damage when they are targeting a legitimate millitary target, no matter how small that colletaral damage is.

  5. The pro-Israel bots on this platform are out of control.

  6. I dont know what is the Function of UNITED NATION in the WORLD….

  7. BBC (a previously great 🇬🇧 institution) are now just Starmer’s (our Putin) Rossiya 1 propaganda channel – disgusting misrepresentative commie channel

  8. Only IDF is required to have zero colletaral damage when they are targeting a legitimate millitary target, even if you can have 1 civilian child out of 3k Hezbolah members as casualties, they will lament IDF and make that child face of IDF attack 🙄

  9. i think the mossad should take care of the BBC after they done with hezbollah, i mean at this point the BBC is a terrorist organization.

  10. But it’s a political and religious war ffs what do people expect.it’s the left vs right political war and people will sadly die

  11. ' People in Lebanon ' means Hezbollah.

  12. Tensions?. Terrorism, human rights breaches, crimes against humanity against palestinians and lebanese more like. BBC you are complicit in this genocide with your reporting.

    14 people were murdered by israels undifferentiated bombings of inncocent civilians.

  13. Using diplomacy with terrorist organisations – they seem to understand explosions and brute force a lot more.

  14. No other country has such an indepth intelligence of opponents before and after the strikes.

  15. UN ridiculous. If the “first world” would actually be proactive in fighting back the terrorists would think twice before attacking. I wish the USA would be so proactive, instead they only use economic sanctions. So weak!

  16. Ez clap

  17. BBC staff and journalists can barely hold back their tears

  18. Human right for humans or terrorist

  19. 🤣BBC

  20. Strange the BBC don’t fret over Israeli children killed by these rockets being fired they aren’t a threat to anyone either.

  21. always..always. Israel is a violstor of International laws…

  22. A bad day at the office indeed

  23. The UN basically meant was "Terrorist lives matter"!!. The UN is out of touch from the practical world. Not relevant anymore

  24. is BBC crying for Hezbollah death ?

  25. Poking Israel for months on end and then being anxious when Israel retaliate? They better be ready.

  26. Israel has every right to defend itself.

  27. Who warns the enemy? Does Hazibolla, Houths and Hamas warn before attacking? BBC JOURNALIST WHAT WRONE WITH YOUR REPORTING. Who attacks Isreal and want to eliminate them? If you have a balanced REPORTING the cycle of Hatred could have been broken. SHAME ON YOU.

  28. BBC hurry and ban pagers for your staff

  29. What Universities, banks and hospitals are using HEZBOLAH pages amd walki-talkies😶? They are so desperate to represent this attack on Hezbolah coming devices as an attack on regular civilians.

  30. UN supports terrorists, well what else would we expect from Socialists? BBC in tow. 8,000 rockets fired at civilians, but that's cool, no criticism, that's no act of war? Yeah sure they started on 8th Oct

  31. Same bullshit they kept saying about T a Libyan leaders 😂

  32. All were hezbollah terrorists…

  33. My condolences to BBC from Indonesia.

  34. The guys with the Yellow Flag doesn't want diplomacy, they declared a long time ago that their goal is to destroy the State of Israel. Anyone remember what Chamberlain said: peace in our time.

  35. Hezbollah commanders are hiding behind civilians in a residential building and all the BBC has to say is that Israel is violating the international law.. Your level of hypocrisy crosses all boundaries..

  36. BBC you are disgusting you are not better than AJ, you basically a terrorists parrots channel.

  37. It's believed, Israeli hackers can do that stuff to any pagers, walkie-talkies, smartphones and computers, and don't even need an explosive for that. Imagine, you're typing a comment like "Netanyahu is a war crimi…", and your smartphone explodes. And the whole Christian world be like: "God himself defends Israel".

  38. Oh dear, how sad, never mind…
