@piersmorgan Piers, the insults and vulgar language don’t strengthen your argument they weaken it. Journalists should elevate public debate, not lower its standard. The constant name calling and personal attacks are unnecessary and unprofessional.
Very good article. It may not be what some Lebanese politicians want to hear, but I couldn’t agree more.
The era of excuses must end. International support should be tied to results, not promises. If the goal is to restore Lebanon’s sovereignty and ensure the Lebanese Armed Forces become the country’s sole legitimate military force, then accountability isn’t optional, it’s essential.
The article describes exactly how it should be.
Disgusting. Raseef22 does not represent Lebanon. Kozo Okamoto was protected by Palestinian and Lebanese leftist factions decades ago. Those days are over.
It was this mindset that helped drag Lebanon into decades of conflict, occupation, militias, and isolation. We will not glorify terrorists, and we will not accept attempts to rewrite history.
No more.
@HibaNasr The priority should be a sovereign Lebanese state that controls its entire territory through its own institutions, with the Lebanese Armed Forces at the center. I explored the possible post-UNIFIL scenarios here: https://t.co/q8rga97qab
Files and US Treasury action point to Hamas-linked and Muslim Brotherhood networks behind Gaza flotilla operations and vessel ownership. Greta may claim ignorance, but activism without basic due diligence is recklessness, not courage. She should go back to school. she lacks basic knowledge.
Lebanon is finally moving forward. A potential US Lebanon security agreement, stronger support for the Lebanese Armed Forces, post UNIFIL arrangements, direct flights, investment, reconstruction, and economic recovery all point in the same direction: a sovereign state, stronger institutions, and a real strategic partnership with the United States. 🇱🇧🫱🏼🫲🏻🇺🇸
Israel was never Lebanon’s enemy. First, it was the PLO that turned Lebanon into a battlefield. Then came the Syrian occupation, followed by Hezbollah and Iran’s grip on the country. These forces destroyed Lebanon from within while using Israel as a permanent excuse. The real enemies were always the ones who stole our sovereignty.
very good read. President Aoun’s visit strengthened Lebanon’s position and secured vital American backing for the state. Now that momentum must become action on the ground. Cabinet decisions, clear timelines, verified implementation and the restoration of the state’s monopoly on arms. Lebanon must deliver.
Elon Musk is a rare kind of genius. One of the most striking moments from his interview wasn’t about rockets or AI, but his observation that simple common sense has been portrayed as almost taboo by parts of the left and much of the media.
When basic logic is treated as controversial, you know something has gone seriously wrong.
@LBpresidency President Aoun and Prime Minister Salam are fully aligned. Washington opened a window of opportunity. Now it’s up to Lebanon to deliver. Strengthen the state, support the Lebanese Army, restore full sovereignty, and move from diplomatic momentum to concrete results.
Elon exposed legacy media with one simple response. Selective outrage and distorted narratives no longer carry the authority they once did. Public trust is collapsing, yet journalists still assume they speak for everyone. The more predictable the attacks become, the more obvious the bias is.
He is describing Hezbollah as it really is, an armed organisation funded and backed by Iran, but composed largely of Lebanese citizens carrying Lebanese passports. That makes the task far more complicated. This is not Daesh invading Arsal in 2014 so the state cannot simply treat thousands of its own citizens as a foreign army. Not the same method but eventually the same result and that´s what´s important.
President Aoun has proposed a serious and responsible method for restoring state authority. His task is extraordinarily difficult, and we must support him as he works to implement it while confronting those determined to sabotage his efforts from within.
