Hezbollah Tries a Comeback
If one line explained what happened on Sunday in Lebanon, when Israeli soldiers killed 21 Lebanese civilians returning to their villages in addition to a Lebanese army soldier, it came from Hassan Fadlallah, a Hezbollah parliamentarian. Fadlallah declared, “The equation of the army, the people, and the resistance is consolidated today. The resistance fought here until the last day, the people opened the way for the Lebanese army, and together we liberated Aita al-Shaab. This historical equation is cemented by the blood of our martyrs and the determination of our people.”

Rebuilding Lebanon: A Momentous Opportunity for Institutions to Deliver
Lebanon is an exhausted nation — but also cautiously optimistic. After a presidential vacuum of two years, the parliament elected armed forces commander Joseph Aoun as the country’s 14th President. President Aoun’s exceptional track record as a military leader during an extraordinary period in Lebanon’s history has won him the confidence of the international community and rallied the Lebanese people around him. His presidency, and the subsequent nomination of the reputable academic, diplomat and international judge Nawaf Salam as prime minister, has sparked hope that Lebanon might finally be on path to development and prosperity.
