Iran's Ali Laranjani was welcomed warmly by locals as he arrived to Beirut today on an official visit.

The welcoming comes amid more traitorous Lebanese state actions and further demonizing of Hezbullah and Iran.

Lots to discuss here, but what we are witnessing recently is the peak of Lebanese politics where hypocrisy is the God they were about

๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง Aoun during his meeting with Larijani: The language Lebanon has heard recently from some Iranian officials is "unhelpful."

๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง Aoun during his meeting with Larijani: We reject any interference in our internal affairs from any party, and we want Lebanon to remain safe and stable for the benefit of all Lebanese people without discrimination.

๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง Aoun: Everyone has paid a heavy price for relying on foreign powers to dominate other Lebanese at home, and no party, without exception, is allowed to bear arms and rely on foreign powers.

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท Larijani meets Aoun: Iran does not interfere in Lebanon's internal affairs and does not wish to see any disruption in its friendship or relations with the Lebanese state and people.

Larijani from Ain al-Tineh: Lebanon is a friendly country to us, and we have the best relations with Lebanon at this stage.

Larijani: We do not insist on certain orders to set a specific timetable.

Larijani: We believe that through friendly, comprehensive and serious dialogue in Lebanon, this country can come up with sound decisions.

Larijani: We do not view our friends as tools, and we believe that the resistance enjoys deep thinking and strategic insight.

Larijani: Countries should not issue orders to Lebanon from abroad, and by that I mean the US timetable for Lebanon.

Larijani: We did not come up with a plan for Lebanon; rather, the Americans came to you with a paper saying, "We will not interfere in your internal affairs and your decision-making."

Larijani responds to the possibility of Iran intervening militarily alongside Lebanon in the event of an Israeli escalation: If the Lebanese government requests it, we are of course ready.

Larijani: Brother Nabih Berri is one of our old friends. We were in contact when I took office as Speaker of the Iranian Parliament, and today he is a prominent figure in Lebanese politics.

๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡งl๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam received Secretary of the Iranian Supreme National Security Council, Ali Larijani, at the Government Palace.

Photos of the meeting showed Salam's cold and lukewarm reception of the Iranian official.

Unacceptable disrespectful, even worse than the Lebanese Foreign Minister's statement saying that even if he had time he wouldn't want to meet Larinjani.

Not once had Lebanon did so to any foreign official, even if the height of Hezbullah's political power and support.

Not once was a Gulf, American, or European official treated such. Not once did they cut ties with them, stop airlines, extra search them and so on.

I hope people understand and see the hypocrisy and double standards

And yeah, the Iranian delegation didn't even ask for meeting the disrespectful Lebanese Foreign Minister who thinks he's representing the LF militia rather than the government

And while the bastards are leading the Lebanese state into hell and attacking Iran, the Israeli Cheif of Staff crossed into Lebanon to meet the soldiers who are today manning at least 6 occupation bases in Lebanon.

The Lebanese army army and the Lebanese state didn't care or bother comment on the matter nor condemn it.

They didn't issue a statement to tackle it.

โ€” ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑ WATCH: Israeli media host Sharon Gal gifts Prime Minister Netanyahu a map of 'Greater Israel,' after saying, 'I don't want to complicate things for you.' When asked twice if he 'connects' with the 'vision,' Netanyahu awkwardly replies 'very much' before looking around

This part of the interview was omitted from what i24tv published on YouTube with English subtitles.

When Sheikh Naim said Israel has intentions to build settlements in Lebanon everyone made fun of him

Not even Netanyahu talking about greater Israel does anyone care.

Lebanese are delusional? No. They actively want to move with flow where Israel and Lebanon are friends and allies in a way that surpasses tens of folds more what the current state is with UAE

They want Lebanon to be the nightclub, restaurant, and brothel of the East disregarding any morality or politics

Lebanese don't care about south Lebanon

Never did, never will. They celebrate their history but omit the southerners.

They celebrate bearing arms against other Lebanese but shame Hezbullah for bearing arms against an occupation

Maj. Gen. Ori Gordin ends his tenure as chief of the Northern Command after three years, handing over the reins of the unit to Maj. Gen. Rafi Milo, the former commander of the Home Front Command.

At the handover ceremony, Gordin says that "for many long years, we allowed the threat of a terror organization to grow and entrench itself on our northern border, this is an operational and strategic mistake, mine and my predecessors', a grave mistake that must not be repeated."

"A mistake which, as a result of it and due to the great risk to the residents, the State of Israel evacuated tens of thousands of residents from their homes for their protection. And now, with this severe threat removed, we are commanded to ensure that no other threat grows in its place," he says.

Gordin says that the military's directive must be to "maintain the good security situation in the north and to thwart any threat that tries to form from the north or the east."

Milo is taking over for Maj. Gen. Ori Gordin, who served in the role for the past three years.
