Trump has a Lebanese grandson . Not sure what his relationship is with the other son in law but he’s loaded . More
Than Kushner. Tiffany’s father in law helped Trump win the election with Michigan And is also a senior advisor with middle East affairs just Like Kushner. Trump didn’t forget that. He’s bizarrely attached to Lebanon in a way we did not see with Gaza and I think it’s familial. The Lebanese Christian’s do Not like Hezbollah but they also dislike The Idf blowing Up all their churches snd iconography which 40 Years of Hezbollah did not do. My Bet is the FIL influenced Trump |
Maybe, maybe not, but I don't think the familial angle is all that relevant. Lebanon is a far more educated and developed country than the Gaza strip, and has much culture and history to preserve, as well as historical ties to neighbors and to its diaspora. Lebanon has long been an ally of France, for example: there are many well-to-do Lebanese in France, and evidence of French culture in Lebanon. I know you're just comparing body counts, and I agree that protecting all life matters more than handwringing about century-old alliances, cultural artifacts or historical buildings... but the fact is, Lebanon is seen as a more valuable nation overall than the Gaza strip. |

Treasury just waived oil sanctions on Iran for 60 days — citing "progress."
Iran could rake in up to ~$10 billion off that decision alone. In contrast, the Obama admin didn't lift sanctions until a deal was signed and the IAEA independently verified Iran's nuclear compliance. |
Give the Israeli time and Lebanon and Lebanese will be like Gaza and the Palestinians. |
I thank the universe he’s inept. |
PP you replied to. I worry that you are correct. |
There's no way they are giving things like that away without a signed deal. Otherwise we straight up lost the Iran war and are giving concessions. |
That's certainly Israel's intention and desire. The question is will they have the capability and support to pull it off. |
. Newsflash. We did lose and now Trump is begging them to re-open the strait so gas prices will go down |
