Lebanon, Iraq, and Iran declared recent Israeli aggression as an act of war after attacks on Lebanon, Syria, and Iraq over the weekend. After an explosive-laden drone took out Hezbollah's media center in Beirut, the leader of Hezbollah said it will not tolerate any more Israeli drones penetrating Lebanese airspace. Israel also bombed Iraq for the first time in nearly 40 years, targeting Iran-allied Shiite militias. This caused a powerful bloc in Iraq's parliament to demand that US troops leave the country. Israel's third attack was against Syria in a series of 'preemptive' strikes against a 'large-scale attack of multiple killer drones on Israel' by Iran. The so-called preemptive strikes were backed by US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. -GEG
