the strategy here appears to be that Israel is trying to bait Hezbollah into attacking them, which is a very sane strategy and not at all completely psychotic
Basically trying to bait a situation where they’re the ones in distress so that everyone stops being mad at them about all the baseless agressoring they’ve been up to as of late.
It’s beyond idiocy because even if it works it’ll end about as well for the Israeli right as taking US millitary families hostage did for the Turkish left.
