Israel’s airstrikes in Lebanon have left entire communities destroyed, echoing the devastation seen in Gaza. As the death toll rises, Lebanese Americans express frustration over the lack of action from the United States government in condemning Israel’s actions.
Nightmare in Lebanon
The situation in Lebanon feels like a nightmare for many Lebanese Americans, with loved ones fleeing their homes and seeking refuge amidst the bombings. The fear and uncertainty only intensify as Israel expands its attacks to different regions of the country.
US Involvement
