I've been waiting to comment or offer analysis on an MOU between the U.S. and Iran that I haven't seen, but we've heard a lot about Lebanon so let's address it.

If “Lebanon” now being included in the deal with Iran means *Iran* is forced to withdraw Iranian Hezbollah from Lebanon, from which they attack Israel and harbor terrorists, then great. But that’s not what’s being said or proposed at the moment.

The only reason Israel is responding in Lebanon is because Iranian Hezbollah keeps killing their soldiers with drones and sending bombs into northern Israel civilian communities. If Iran pulled Iranian Hezbollah out of Lebanon the fighting would stop. Further, if the UN had enforced UN Security Council Resolution 1701, held the line and kept Iranian Hezbollah north of the Litani River, Israel wouldn't be operating in southern Lebanon to push them back. If the Iranian regime hadn't colonized Lebanon with its terror proxy Hezbollah in the first place, there would be no issue at all.

A reminder: Prior to 9/11 Iranian Hezbollah was responsible for more American murders than any other terrorist organization on the planet. They currently operate in South America - our hemisphere - and partner with drug cartels. SOUTHCOM calls it "Jihad in the Jungle."

Just over the weekend in southern Lebanon, Israel took out Ali Musa Daqduq - an Iranian Hezbollah terrorist who killed U.S. troops execution style. The strike was extremely targeted, as the majority of them are. He's one of many Iranian Hezbollah terrorists. to whom the IDF has delivered justice - including Iranian Hezbollah leaders behind the Beirut bombings of the U.S. Embassy and Marine Corps barracks, killing hundreds.

Lebanon wasn't in the initial ceasefire deal - for good reason. It makes no sense that it is now, other than to give Iran what they want - which is another life line for their strongest and most organized terror proxy. This is an Iranian demand and objective. Counter to the "forever wars" narrative, this actually ensures there will be more war in the future. As the White House has repeatedly said about the goals of Epic Fury, "We’re ensuring that the Iranian regime cannot continue to arm, fund, and direct terrorist armies outside of their borders.” Lebanon is far outside Iran's borders and Hezbollah is operating there.

As the President of Lebanon said last week about Iran and Hezbollah, "It's not your country, it's our country...they are using Lebanon as a bargaining chip in their negotiation with the United States. It's unacceptable."

As for who the U.S. is negotiating with in Iran and claims of more moderate leaders than the previous regime being at the table (which I don't believe), you can thank the Israelis for taking out the top three levels of regime leadership so we have "normal" people to negotiate with.

Let the Israelis do what they need to do. Iran is still and always has been the hinderance to peace. That hasn't changed and giving Iranian Hezbollah immunity in Lebanon is appeasement that will prolong the conflict.

Fortunately @SecRubio made clear that Iran & Hezbollah aren’t linked in a deal. @Israel doesn’t need Iran permission to defend itself. The tether of terror must end.

[Sam Vecenie @Sam_Vecenie]

Game 4 is just honestly a brutal watch and it's totally because of the way the series has been officiated for the first three games. Now that they've allowed crazy contact everywhere, neither team knows where the line is and officials are having to make adjustments on the fly.

[Craig Carton @craigcartonlive]

The @nba should be embarrassed by the officiating in Game 2, Game 3 and now in Game 4 - Miss an obvious goal tending, an obvious basket interference and a BS foul call on KAT

[Craig Carton @craigcartonlive]

Please explain how the Refs give the Knicks the ball to inbound which they do and the Spurs have 6 men on the court and not only do they not call a tech on SAS they pretend like it didn’t happen and make the Knicks take the ball out again. Spurs had nearly 20 more free throws in the 2nd half than NY. Seems like we need Scott Foster back.

Iran shattered the fragile truce, recklessly firing missiles on Israeli communities. I stand firmly with Israel’s right to defend herself from the leading state sponsor of terror. Iran has pushed us further from peace.

If any single one of the Gulf countries attacked in recent days wanted to return fire inside Iran, we would support them in that defense. As we should for Israel now. Some of the Gulf states may lack will and capability, but Israel has both.
