Report: Foreign countries push for land border demarcation with Israel

W460

Hezbollah has learned about a "suspicious diplomatic" drive aiming to demarcate land borders between Lebanon and Israel, ad-Diyar newspaper reported Friday.

The land demarcation has been discussed with Lebanese officials in foreign capitals during several meetings, the daily claimed.

The report comes a day after the Israeli army struck southern Lebanon, claiming that an anti-tank missile, that exploded in the border area between the two foes, was launched from Lebanon.

It also comes at a time of rising tension between Israel and Hezbollah over two tents erected by Hezbollah in a disputed territory and Israel’s building of a wall around the Lebanese part of Ghajar, a village that Israeli troops captured during the 2006 Israel-Hezbollah war.

Maybe a negotiation can arrive at a demarcation that a new president could agree to. It happened before on the sea, why should the land be any different? Hezbollah didn't participate or contribute then, no reason they should be involved this next round. Still, that is a lot of maybe and wishful thinkings ...

The problem with that is if an agreement was finally reached it would mean that Hizballah would finally have to disband as over the years it has always claimed that it only exists because Israel still occupies Lebanese territory. No occupation = no Hizballah. Who are we kidding that they would agree to this.

The people who call label Palestinians terrorists because they're resisting the European Zionist invaders and occupiers of Palestine want Lebanon to negotiate with these scumbags? Go arm the Palestinians with the same weapons you sent to Ukraine then come back and make suggestions, biased and corrupt Western filth.
