Any form of tensions in the region will only escalate the rush to military arms. It needs to stop.

Nasrallah can't possibly believe escalating tensions and increasing military solutions is good for Lebanon or any other country in the region. This is not a good thing. In many ways, the men that fought under the Hezbollah flag are heroes to many, but, they were fighting to end killing, now they need peace.

It needs a summit.

...More than 10 years later, (click here) Hezbollah’s military capabilities are even more formidable. It has over 100,000 rockets and missiles and can fire over 1,000 per day, targeting almost every major city in Israel. Hezbollah also manufactures weapons in Lebanon, producing drones and guided missiles, amongst other systems. In the past, Hezbollah rockets had crude guidance systems and mostly landed on Israeli fields or other unpopulated parts of the country. Now, however, Hezbollah has systems, like the Fateh-110, that use advanced guidance systems. If another conflict were to break out, Israel would face the potential loss of power plants, its airport, key political and cultural sites, and other grave threats. Israel’s layered missile-defense and anti-rocket systems like Iron Dome and David’s Sling will offer some protection, but they would be tested by the scale and scope of Hezbollah’s arsenal.

Politically, Hezbollah is also secure. In the May 2018 parliamentary elections, Hezbollah won additional seats, and its power grew at the expense of Prime Minister Saad al-Hariri, the leader of Lebanon’s Sunni Muslims. Hezbollah already had a de facto veto over government decisions in Lebanon, and its strong election performance further strengthens it....

That is enough. There is no Zionist enemy. These are horrible politics that promise to destroy the region.

The four wheeler in the picture below is what hunters in the USA take into the woods to hunt for deer. A rocket mounted on the back is not a good cover for the driver. THIS IS RIDICULOUS.

A senior Hezbollah official (click here) on Friday told Lebanon's Al Akhbar newspaper that during the next round of conflict with Israel, the terror organization plans to infiltrate Judea and Samaria, Israel Hayom reported.

Speaking to Al Akhbar, the official said Hezbollah is preparing "many surprises" for the "Zionist enemy....

The killing must stop and peace ensued. This is not the way to bring about a productive society or strong economy. The drug czar of Hezbollah likes the money to promote the expansion of Hezbollah, but, it is not the way of a civilized people that provides well for their children with a future of peace and prosperity. Being drug dealers is not PROSPERITY!
