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.

Hankache Slams Current Situation Prevailing Over Roumieh Prison and Inmates
Kataeb MP Elias Hankache on Wednesday lambasted the current situation prevailing over the Central prison in Roumieh, slamming the Cabinet for not taking any appropriate measures regarding the issue of the dangerous overcrowding of inmates in the prison.
“Why doesn’t the militant authority strictly protect and regulate the prison to prevent the entry of prohibited machines and devices?” Hankache asked in a series of questions he presented to the government through Speaker Nabih Berri.
“The number of prisoners has now exceeded its designated capacity by 1500 prisoners and the overcrowding has reached a dangerous stage where the number of inmates has outreached 356 prisoners last month,” he said.
Hankache wondered why the Interior Ministry hasn’t taken any procedures to secure better life conditions for the prisoners, affirming that the hygiene conditions are also not any close available in the kitchens.
“And why the Justice Ministry hasn’t yet adopted a clear plan to speed up with the inmates’ trial? Hankache asked, stressing that the prisoners have rights that cannot be deprived from.
