Krystal: 以色列暗杀真主党领导人纳斯鲁拉标志着以黎冲突的重大升级,也杀害了伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队高级成员。以色列的目标是在黎巴嫩北部和南部之间建立缓冲区,这将导致更多破坏性行动。以色列官员表示,在认定纳斯鲁拉不会同意任何与结束加沙战争无关的解决方案后,他们决定杀死他。以色列的行动导致地区局势进一步升级,美国政府的软弱立场加剧了这一风险。以色列对平民的无差别轰炸以及对平民基础设施的破坏,与杀死本·拉登的行动形成鲜明对比,突显了美国领导层的软弱。 Emily: 当前的国际秩序正在发生转变,以美国为首的二战后国际秩序正在消亡,取而代之的是一个更加混乱和无序的世界。当前的国际冲突凸显了国际法的失效,以及强权政治在国际关系中的主导地位。以色列对平民供应链的破坏性行为,以及美国政治精英对这种行为的接受和庆祝,标志着恐怖主义的升级。以色列很可能会对黎巴嫩进行全面地面入侵,并对也门发动袭击,这将进一步加剧地区冲突。 Trita Parsi: 拜登政府对以色列袭击和冲突升级的反应是可以预见的,他们一边表示反对,一边却继续向以色列提供武器和政治支持。拜登政府一边声称要阻止冲突升级,一边却向以色列提供升级冲突的工具,这暴露了美国政府的虚伪和软弱。以色列在国际社会日益孤立,其军事胜利并不能带来长期的和平与安全。拜登政府对以色列袭击的反应与布什政府对类似事件的反应形成鲜明对比,这突显了美国政府在道德方面的沦丧。以色列很可能会对黎巴嫩进行地面入侵,这可能会导致伊朗采取行动,从而引发更大规模的地区战争。以色列对真主党的打击可能比对哈马斯的打击更严重,因为以色列成功破坏了真主党的通讯系统。以色列能够成功暗杀纳斯鲁拉,与其情报能力的提高无关,而是因为美国政府给予了他们更大的行动自由。美国政府对在以色列和黎巴嫩的美国公民采取了不同的待遇,这凸显了政府的偏见。拜登政府对中东冲突的处理方式可能会对其在阿拉伯和穆斯林社区中的支持产生负面影响。拜登政府在处理中东冲突问题上的决策令人费解,这让人们对哈里斯政府的未来感到担忧。拜登总统对中东局势的理解能力令人担忧。
