It’s onerous to imagine that ‘something constructive’ for Lebanon can come from its talks with Israel, argues analyst Imad Harb.

Harb tells host Steve Clemons that Hezbollah is an excuse for Israel to conduct a land seize in Lebanon, much like what it’s doing in Gaza, the West Financial institution and Syria.
Pushing the Lebanese authorities to disarm Hezbollah “means civil conflict in Lebanon”, particularly if Israel is allowed to occupy massive swaths of Lebanese territory, says Harb.
