Lebanon at a dangerous crossroads – a plan to dismantle Hezbollah's weapons. Arab Sea - Follow-ups The Lebanese government today, Friday, discussed an unprecedented plan led by the army to "remove illegal firearms" from all parties, including Hezbollah's arsenal. The move sparked widespread controversy, as the party rejected the order, considering it a direct threat to "resistance against the Israeli occupation" and an undermining of internal balance. The move comes amid increasing international pressure on Beirut to prove its seriousness in extending state sovereignty and stopping Lebanon from turning into a proxy conflict arena. Strategic Insight: This discussion is not an administrative procedure, but an existential test: Can Lebanon restore the state's monopoly on weapons? The success of the plan may open the door to a new political phase, but its failure may plunge the country into an equation of chaos or a disguised civil war.
