So they tried to deport me…The Free Press reported that the State Department was preparing to deport me. But it appears the hit piece was designed to trigger a deportation.tritaparsi.substack.com

Lebanon’s June 3 joint statement w/ US & Israel followed by President Aoun’s CNN interview reflect Lebanese gov’s increasing adoption of US-Israeli framework: Hizballah is the problem; Iran should be denied any role; Israel is merely responding.

“Normalisation & disarmament appear together in this project because both are instruments for ending the structural conditions that once allowed resistance to survive, w/ the Lebanese government cast as domestic administrator of a US/Israeli-designed order." www.middleeasteye.net/opinion/leba...

Lebanon's elite sees the world through Israel's eyes and surrendered to itWhat is presented as a cessation of hostilities is not the withdrawal of Israel from Lebanon, but the removal of Lebanese citizens from their landwww.middleeasteye.net

Many problems w/ US-Israeli-Lebanese joint statement & “negotiations” that produced them. All are underpinned by false assumptions: (1) core problem is Hizballah; (2) Israeli aggression is merely response to Hizballah; (3) LAF is boxed out of role it otherwise capable of. 👇

With potential US-Iran agreement, those Lebanon analysts lamenting such agreement (despite/because indications of greater constrains on Israeli war on Lebanon) reveal themselves to prioritize denying Hizballah a “win” over minimizing Israel’s ability to conduct war and further destroy the country.
