Only the Lebanese People Can Make Hezbollah Disarm
The impasse in Lebanon is about Hezbollah’s weapons, and for that there is no military solution, either by Israel or through the Lebanese Armed Forces. External support and external factors will always be important, but it is ultimately an internal matter among the Lebanese.

Otherwise, the peace talks with Israel will go nowhere and the scenarios for everyone in the region are too horrible to imagine.
