French President Emmanuel Macron requested a halt to military supply to "Israel," which has been waging a genocidal war on Gaza for a year. 

"I think that today, the priority is that we return to a political solution, that we stop delivering weapons to fight in Gaza," Macron told France Inter.

"France is not delivering any," he continued in an interview conducted earlier this week.

Every year, the United States gives "Israel" around $3 billion in armaments. In May, the State Department stated that it did not have enough evidence to prohibit weapons supplies, but that it was "reasonable to assess" that "Israel" had used weapons in ways that violated humanitarian law principles.

In September, Britain announced that it was blocking some arms transfers to "Israel," citing a "clear risk" that they would be used in a severe violation of international humanitarian law.

Macron expressed his alarm over the ongoing war in Gaza, despite repeated requests for a ceasefire. 

"I think we are not being heard," he remarked. "I think it is a mistake, including for the security of Israel," he added, adding that the war was causing "hatred."

Macron also stated that preventing an escalation in Lebanon was a "priority," warning that Lebanon could not "become a new Gaza."

Aggression on Lebanon 'could not have happened' without US: Ex-US Col.

What needs to be understood concerning Israeli aggression in Lebanon is that "it could not have happened at all without us," former senior US Defense Department official, military historian, and retired US Army Colonel Douglas Macgregor asserted.

"Israel" has killed 1,974 people and wounded 9,384 others since the beginning of the Israeli aggression on the country on October 8, 2023, and its expansion about a week ago.

The retired colonel expressed during a podcast interview with Judge Andrew Napolitano that the US, along with its considerable ISR assets, the Air Force, and the US Navy, engaged in supporting the "invasion" of Lebanon by "Israel", citing the US capability of harvesting extremely sensitive information that Israelis would not be capable of retrieving on their own. 

Macgregor affirmed that when such "successful operations" take place in Lebanon or other locations, "it’s not an Israel-only operation by any means," adding that even though this is a dangerous endeavor, the prime minister of the occupation, Benjamin Netanyahu, does not see it as such.

The reason, according to Macgregor, is that Netanyahu is "waging a ruthless war of extermination against his enemies," explaining how Netanyahu has already vocalized who his enemies are: "The people in Gaza, Arabs in the West Bank, and the Arabs south of the Litani river," in addition to "very lucrative targets across Syria."

The former colonel noted that this is a "very powerful war" and the US is simply "operating on autopilot."

"We’re just flying in the direction... we’re helping it. We’re enabling it. We’re pushing it," he emphasized, detailing that the American people are not being consulted on these matters because "everyone in Washington is quite comfortable with what’s happening."
