The United States will not tolerate the “status quo” that Hizbullah has created in Lebanon, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Thursday.
"In Lebanon, Hizbullah is a major presence, but we won’t accept this as the status quo. Our aggressive sanctions campaign against Iran is also directed at the terror group and its leaders, including the son of Hassan Nasrallah, the head of Hizbullah," Pompeo said in a speech at the American University of Cairo.
“We are working to reduce Hizbullah’s rocket arsenal,” he added.
Pompeo also said that the Obama administration had ignored the growth Hizbullah's strength in Lebanon to the detriment of Israel's security.

Talk is cheap indeed!
What about nassrallah, Raad, and every hezbollah so called MP? The USA sat back and watched the criminal iranian terror group take over Lebanon and did nothing.

If you recall the Americans and the Arabs supported Iraq with their war against Iran and than they both turned on Iraq. The Americans can not be trusted annd look at what they are going to do to the Kurds. the Objective of the US, KSA and Israel was to redivide the ME that also didn't work out but they did accomplish to drive out the Christians and cause a rift between Sunni and Shia that will never be reconciled. In case you forgot the Arms deal Regan did with the Iranians it was called Iran-Contra. So as long as the Arabs " Muslims" continue to kill each other Israel is left in peace better yet the Arabs are joining them rather than resolve the issues with Iran. And Yes women and girls flee their Country and family but are not hunted down and killed as they do with KSA and other Muslim countries
