Lebanon After the Assads
The United States has important equities in Lebanon, including a desire for a generally friendly government’s economic and political stability; security cooperation; long-standing relations with the large Christian community in Lebanon and Lebanese diaspora in the United States; and ultimately peace between Israel and Lebanon within a broader regional settlement. Achieving these objectives will require navigating a tumultuous period in the country’s history following a war between Hezbollah and Israel that has devastated a large part of the country, exacerbating Lebanon’s already challenging economic conditions. But perhaps the most important dynamic will be how a likely Sunni-dominated state of uncertain composition in Syria will differ in its intentions toward Lebanon from the previous Alawite-led minoritarian Assad regime.

Kataeb Party Warned that Current Crises Are Contrived to Cover-up Failure
The Lebanese Kataeb party on Monday warned that glossing over failures does not serve the country that is suffering from a crisis of governance.
“The country is suffering from a crisis of governance that has become open to all possibilities which has led to exacerbated dangers in political, financial and security entitlements,” read a statement issued following the weekly meeting of the Kataeb's politburo, condemning the Cabinet stalemate for over a month.
The party demanded to stop politicizing security incidents in the country and to abide by legal and Constitutional procedural regulations which conform to the courts’ jurisdictions.
“The one dragging the country into sanctions and international embargo is not proclaiming the truth nor is he boldly challenging transgressions; but rather, he is controlling the decision-making role of war and peace and is venturing the Lebanese in his own ideological conflicts that surpass borders,” the statement slammed.
“Rampant illegal arms, to which the Lebanese are paying a heavy price on daily basis, are one of the facets of unlawfulness as it diminishes the stature of the State and the law,” it added, highlighting the need for Hezbollah to lay down its illegal arms.
The party urged transparency and evoked electronic voting (e-voting) in Parliamentary elections.
“The expansion of Burj Hammoud and Costa Brava landfills would lead to collective immigration as a result of economic, environmental and health dangers impacting hundreds of thousands of people,” the statement cautioned.
