Mr. Biden & Ms. Kamala Harris, let us be clear, any peace agreement that leaves one rocket into Hizbollah (Iran Foreign Legion) hands is a dagger into Lebanon's sovereignty, independence and recovery; sacrificing our country transforming it into an Iranian rocket base like Houthis. Furthermore, any aid to rebuild the South without disarming Hizbollah is supporting continuous occupation of Lebanon by the Basij that have brainwashed the Shia community and used it as fire wood for Iran's regional ambitions and Suleimani's kiss of death to Shia communities throughout the Arab World. Hope this is clear!
