Lebanese News and Updates
Informed sources said, โ€œThe candidacy of the head of the Forces, Samir Geagea, is unlikely, as he is also one of the internal parties that are subject to pressure to proceed with Aounโ€™s candidacy, and there is no indication of support for him,โ€

So he โ€œprefers to postpone the session for two additional months, awaiting clarity in the United States and its policy towards the region, which may provide conditions that support his candidacy.โ€
๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง Prominent sources revealed that the leader of the "Forces", Samir Geagea, sent MP Pierre Bou Assi to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to meet with Prince Yazid bin Farhan, the direct official in charge of the Lebanese file in the Saudi Foreign Ministry, and to try to understand whether there is a possibility of supporting his candidacy.

โœ I find these news particularly ironic and especially those about the soon-to-take place visits about the presidency.

Notice how Iran isn't involved not by words nor actions? Yet they and Hezbullah always were accused of something they never did and of interference they never were part of. Lebanese are hypocrites and delusional.

Qaddafi once said, at an Arab league summit that Libya/him have nothing in common with the Arab states but this room. The only common.

I don't blame him for these words and they are inspirational. Israel is attacking and occupying 3 Arab countries now and attacking a 4th, yet the collective Arab and Muslim world is in denial and is happy about it.

๐Ÿ“ธ The moment the Israelis burned Kamal Adwan hospital

The matter is simple, the war should end and setting aside all the delusional social media claims of invisibility that people are echoing from outside of Gaza, there should be no effort not done to make the war stop.

Both the resistance and the people are in unprecedented and grave pain. There is unprecedented agony and loss.

But the issue is, it's not Hamas who is refusing to end the war nor is Hamas being stubborn about conditions. I'm pretty sure they are willing to drop the names of some from the prisoner list to ensure a deal can pass. Because it makes no sense to sacrifice a thousand for one.

The matter here is Israel. Israel does not want Gaza to exist anymore. Israel does not want Hamas to exist anymore.

From calling to build settlements to exodus, current Israeli officials and ministers were very clear about their intentions. The issue is, no one is able to change this trajectory and force the Jews to become humans.

For that, Hamas has no choice but to continue to fight, hoping..just hoping... something makes the Jews come back to their senses and end the war.

In simple military terms, Hamas has been a manageable threat since mid-2023. There is no longer a military justification to continue this war. The destruction in Gaza will need a decade...more...to be cleared and for rebuilding to start (if it does).

Israelis are simply war criminals that want to end the threat once and for all. Unfortunately if the war doesn't stop soon, it'll continue until 2026 as a minimum. And no, 7-Oct is not enough to justify what the Jews did in Gaza.

After the IDF leadership announced the need to move on, the Israeli political leadership replied saying:

"The issue of 'the day after' in Gaza is discussed continuously and promoted in appropriate forums, and not in trending briefings by those who have completely failed in their assessments...

"The Prime Minister is not ready to accept a reality in which Hamas has any presence in Gaza...

"Therefore, in order to deal with The day after Hamas, we must first of all make sure that there is no Hamas and, of course, return our abductees, and that is what Israel is focusing on."

๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง As part of an ongoing campaign to fight crime, the Lebanese army arrested 31 citizens and confiscated both drugs and weapons.

- Hermel: Drugs and shooting
- Western Beqaa: shooting - 13 arrested
- Tripoli: Drugs and shooting
- Baalbek: Shooting
- Mount Lebanon: Shooting
- Akkat: shooting

- We gave priority to families whose homes were completely or partially destroyed so that they can return quickly

- We have a shelter program for border villages and we will rebuild these villages and aid will reach everyone who deserves it

- About 90% of the surveys have been completed in the southern suburbs, Mount Lebanon and the Bekaa and 80% in the south, except for the border areas where work will begin as soon as the conditions are met

- We hope that the owners of residential apartments and shops will help those affected out of compassion for them and so that they can manage their affairs

- We were patient with the violations for the sake of the people who returned to its villages in the south, and today they are demanding that we respond to these violations

โœ Honestly, not a wise and adequate speech. Read the room.
