More likely would be Israel undertaking a White House green-lighted invasion of Lebanon to degrade Hezbollah and Syria as a base toward the weakening of Iran from ground level. Congressional sources report that the Pentagon disagrees with Israel and intends to attack, not from the base but from above the top of the Resistance pyramid, which is Iran.
The US will hit Iran hard thus hopefully opening up another attempt to peel away Syria and forced them to accept a peace deal with Israel. The scheme would return the Golan heights to the Assad regime minus the 100 meters strip along Syria's Lake Tiberius. This sliver of lake front is where former Syrian President Hafez Assad told President Bill Clinton in 2000, he used to swim as a kid. He also told Clinton that Syria's demand for its full return was non-negotiable, the same position adamantly held today by the Syrian government.
In Beirut, discussing the likelihood of street violence, a March 14th Hariri supporter attending Professor Norman Finkelstein's public lecture at AUB last night told this observer that Lebanon needs stability and justice. "Let all the dead from Lebanon's black civil war period rest in peace. It's time to move on and rebuild our fractured country. I say all those who have been killed in Lebanon are equal."
Well almost.
The enthusiastic young man did not believe his counsel should apply to the case of his personal idol, former P.M. Rafik Hariri, who while not the first PM
to be killed in office, is the first one to be killed with such powerful
friends insisting on "justice."
