(Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs) Col. (ret.) Dr. Jacques Neriah - The issue of disarming Hizbullah in Lebanon has reached a deadlock. The Lebanese government, including President Joseph Aoun, has concluded that it is unable to compel the Shiite militia to surrender its arsenal to the state, as stipulated in the ceasefire agreement based on UN Security Council Resolution 1701. Enforcing such a demand would likely risk plunging Lebanon into another civil war. The idea of integrating Hizbullah units into the Lebanese army has been rejected by both the U.S. and President Aoun due to fears that it could lead to a Hizbullah takeover of the army. Moreover, there is no intention of allowing Hizbullah fighters - funded by Iran - to receive an additional salary stream. The writer, a special analyst for the Middle East at the Jerusalem Center, was formerly Deputy Head for Assessment of Israeli Military Intelligence. 2025-07-17 00:00:00Full Article
