The Iranian MOU already required unconditional Israeli withdrawal from Lebanon, and then the Lebanese government turned around and signed a separate deal making that withdrawal conditional on disarming Hezbollah
Daniel's line: Iran negotiated better terms for Lebanon than Lebanon did for itself
An Israeli military commentator went on Channel 13 the same night and called it a win-win, either Israel stays in Lebanon or Lebanon is forced into civil war with Hezbollah
Why did Lebanon do it? Daniel says they don't have leverage, they over-internalized their weakness, and they handed away what little bargaining power the MOU had given them
Collaborating with Israel doesn't get you dignity, it gets you humiliated in front of your own people
Has the Lebanese government just signed its own death warrant?
