The US government has sent nearly a quarter-billion dollars in weapons and other aid to the Lebanese military for the purposes of aiding them to disarm and dismantle Hezbollah.

The Trump administration is pushing the Lebanese government hard to enact their plan to eradicate the armed resistance group.

Few believe Hezbollah will give up their arms, setting the stage for a Western-backed bloodbath in Lebanon.

The Lebanese Army has been largely absent in resisting Israel, while Hezbollah has provided the lionโ€™s share of the resistance to the Israeli bombings and invasion of Southern Lebanon.

When will the western imperial colonial capitalist blood bath end after 500 years? It appears only when a planetary wide apocalypse has set on and become irreversible.

The army chief and president already said, they will not allow the PM to turn the army against their own people. And let's be real, at least half if not more soldiers will not only drop their weapons, but will use their weapons against the state! It will be mutiny and lord knows what else!

More money from US taxpayers going indirectly for the benefit of Israel. I think most will be asking ICE to deport them to a country not complicit in war crimes.

Why? Wouldn't those taxpayers" dollars be better spent WITHIN the U.S.? Helping the poverty stricken citizens of America get their heads above water again? Really bad leadership in America.
