The Times (UK) reports that Hezbollah has refused to disarm headed into the first day of the peace deal that would have placed the Lebanese army into southern Lebanon to disarm Hezbollah and control the region. Daniel McGregory reports:
Today was supposed to be the day when the muchmaligned army of Lebanon took control of its borders and policed the UN ceasefire.Huh. That seems very strange, since the presence of the Lebanese army should have allowed Hezbollah to focus on its number one priority (according to Canada's own Black Wolf), which is to provide social services to the poor in Lebanon.
Instead, its military commanders were left humiliated and its troops stranded as Hezbollah told them not to try to disarm its fighters.
(The Times)
Has Black Wolf ever had a look at Hezbollah's flag, I wonder?
Hat tip to Captain's Quarters.
