BEIRUT — Lebanon will open a new phase of the conflict over weapons of resistance next week, despite Israel’s explicit rejection of US envoys that aimed to impose security and military control, as well as political control over Lebanon.
It should be noted that the unstable local situation forced the election of President Joseph Aung and the appointment of Nawaf Salam to form the government earlier this year. Since then, Israeli enemies continue to try to hamper the recovery of resistance under the auspices of their mercenaries in Washington, Riyadh and Lebanon.
Before approval of Barrack’s proposal, Hezbollah preferred to avoid threats in the statement and was willing to fall into a dispute with the Lebanese faction.
When Hezbollah agreed to many government decisions to avoid clashes with the Republic or the Prime Minister, Israeli occupation groups assumed that there was a basis for ensuring resistance and forcing military concessions, as they had concessions on political issues.
However, as demonstrated by Hezbollah Secretary Sheikh Naim Qassem, Hezbollah, has reached a stage where Hezbollah was forced to adopt a very clear discourse.
On his part, Congress President Navi Beli warned against blindly responding to the decision to undermine resistance.
Bravely hostile actions of the American delegation along with barracks – in particular, Sen. Lindsey Graham, who has admitted that the US government has not considered the Lebanese government calling for any action from Israel before disarming Hezbollah, encourages declaring Beli to have the effect of resistance.
Meanwhile, the political world has said that US deputy envoy Morgan Ortags will accompany the US Central Commander (CENTCOM) commander to Lebanon at the end of this week. Ortagus’ meetings will be limited to Lebanese security officials, not political leaders.
In this connection, Haaretz wrote that “Lebanon timetables are known for their extreme flexibility,” making it clear that Barrack was not satisfied with Aoun and Salam’s statements regarding the exclusive ownership of arms by the state, and demanding a clear enforcement decision.
Meanwhile, Hezbollah MP Ali Mekdad, a member of the Congressional loyalty to the Resistance Bloc, said, “Hezbollah and the Ministers of the Amal Movement have not yet decided whether to participate in the cabinet session or boycott it.”
In that part, the position of the anti-resistance team was expressed by Strida Geagea, the leader of the Lebanese military.
She argued that Friday’s session was “not a daily meeting of the Council of Ministers, but a pivotal event that Lebanon places before the actual battle for sovereignty.”
It remains to be seen whether the government will step back from the decision and move towards internal dialogue or implement US and Saudi Arabia directions.
