“Removing the root causes” of Hezbollah, “that’s my main strategy,” Lebanon’s President Joseph Aoun tells me. “The state is ready to protect the country and to protect everybody… If [Hezbollah] don’t agree to turn down their weapons or to… negotiate with the government, then they will be held accountable before their people.”

After over four decades in the army, Lebanon’s President Joseph Aoun tells me, “I’ve been in combat situations many times. I was wounded twice. I’ve seen the hardship of war. That’s why I hate wars. That’s why I prefer negotiation… I don’t want my children, I don’t want the people, to live the same hardship.”

I just had a very brief meeting with the Lebanese Chief of Defense General Rodolphe Haykal. I asked him point blank if he believes Hezbollah is a terrorist organization. He said, “No, not in the context of Lebanon.” With that, I ended the meeting.

They are clearly a terrorist organization. Hezbollah has American blood on its hands. Just ask the U.S. Marines.

They have been designated as a foreign terrorist organization by both Republican and Democrat administrations since 1997 – for good reason.

As long as this attitude exists from the Lebanese Armed Forces, I don’t think we have a reliable partner in them.

I am tired of the double speak in the Middle East. Too much is at stake.

#Lebanon will flourish once again, beautiful and vigorous like the cedar, a symbol of the people’s unity and fruitfulness. The strength of the cedar lies in its roots. In the same way, the many good things we see in Lebanese society today are the result of the humble, hidden and honest work of so many people of good will, of the many good roots. Draw from the good roots of those dedicated to serving society. Be the source of hope that the country is waiting for! #ApostolicJourney

The incredibly beautiful moment when Pope Leo XIV enters the Monastery of St. Maroun as the choir sings an ancient hymn to Saint Charbel, first in Arabic, then in Syriac. Watch to the end, when the Pope pauses in silence to pray before the shrine of St. Charbel, a profoundly important spot for Lebanese Christians.
