Hezbollah Rejects U.S.-Backed Peace Deal

Hezbollah is fiercely rejecting a U.S.-brokered security deal with Israel, calling it a “surrender” and declaring it null and void, as their leader Naim Qassem vows to stay on the battlefield. The deal, meant to see Israel withdraw from southern Lebanon and allow the Lebanese army to take over, is seen by Hezbollah as legitimizing Israel’s presence — especially since withdrawal is tied to Hezbollah’s disarmament. Tensions flare anew after Israel strikes a target in southern Lebanon, displacing over a million people. Hezbollah argues the Lebanese government made unilateral concessions that erode national sovereignty and insists the path to peace must be anchored in a separate Iran-U.S. agreement guaranteeing Lebanon’s territorial integrity — not the contested U.S.-brokered deal. With Hezbollah doubling down, the road to lasting peace grows even more fraught. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
