What they said

The opportunity is available today, and the political will is present, and what is required is international support commensurate with the historic moment

For the first time in many long years, he sees a glimmer of hope and a real opportunity for Lebanon, Iraq and Syria

The ministers' withdrawal is an escalatory option and matters cannot be pushed through in this way. There must be rationing and then a variable tariff that keeps pace with global oil prices to cover the cost of generators. We move step by step, after the sit-in, then the withdrawal from the cabinet session, and we will follow an escalating path. We will deal with each cabinet session according to its circumstances.

When you ask for money for the South Council, the money is secured, but there is no money when you ask for a service that benefits all Lebanese. Also, Energy Minister Joe Saddeh is asking for funds owed by state institutions, and it is not acceptable for the citizen to pay the cost of operating state institutions.

The most important thing is that there is no direct threat that cannot be postponed for two weeks, and assuming the possibility of launching a limited operation, achieving its objectives, and a rapid return to normal life, requires caution, as Israel can determine how to launch the campaign, but it alone cannot determine Iran's response, or when the fighting will end, as it may choose a wide-ranging response, wanting to change the deterrence equation towards Israel and the United States, which turns a limited action into a long-term conflict.

It is unlikely to happen soon, and certainly does not require Israel to launch a new preemptive campaign, but the concern is that there may be a miscalculation. Through conversations with sources in the military establishment, it appears that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who declared publicly that he does not intend to launch a preemptive war, and in internal discussions, is not enthusiastic about another military initiative against Iran before the elections.

The level of alert is rising in Israel, and the army is preparing for the possibility of returning to fighting soon, and the military establishment is closely monitoring developments in Iran, which is preparing for the possibility of another conflict, as it works to restore its military capabilities, strengthen its forces, and prepare for a future campaign against Israel and the United States. Nevertheless, its readiness for war does not prove that an attack is imminent.

Honestly, I don't trust anyone. I don't trust anyone. In the world of politics, I don't trust anyone.

Well, they want me to participate. Yes, they want that. Look, I had a very good relationship with him. We achieved joint successes.

No, I will not use nuclear weapons against Iran. We don't need to do that. We are the greatest nuclear power in the world.

Honestly, I do not trust anyone. In politics, I do not trust anyone.

They want my participation, that is true. I had a very good relationship with Netanyahu, and we achieved many successes together.

I will not use nuclear weapons against Iran; there is no need for that. The United States is the largest nuclear power in the world.

The more we understand it, the less optimistic we become. That is frustrating.

I think today, after all these years of investigation, I understand Lebanon much better.

How do we build a shared future without a shared past?

A serious incident

I am completely innocent. I am not guilty.

In light of the multiplicity of alerts on all fronts and the sensitivity of the stage, the chances of escalation have risen

Serious commitments from the Lebanese government regarding the disarmament of Hezbollah

It is something that should not be considered at all

The necessity of supporting diplomatic solutions as the best way to end the region's conflicts

"Don't try to play"!

This land holds the memories of my father and my family, and I am attached to it; it is hard to wait for permission to return to it, because any delay may cause me to lose this season

For me, the olive tree is like a human; the more we care for it, the more it gives us of its bounty

We don't know what will happen

These Italian machines can press 40 tons a day, but despite their size they are worthless without the farmer and the landowners. Therefore we decided, despite all the rising costs, to keep the price at $16 per tin of oil pressed, at a rate of one dollar per kilo. We also sell a tin of oil to whoever wants at $150, and 100 kilos of olives for $100 for whoever wants to watch the pressing before him.

For me the season has not begun. The olives are unripe and their yield ratio is bad, even though the crop season is good, but people rushed, so I decided to respond to them early.

We love olives and hate them. In its season it deprives us of many things and it is no longer profitable as it used to be with the high costs of caring for it, from pruning to plowing to picking, but emotionally the attachment to it is great. I do not remember in which year the first season was when my father took me with him to the harvest, but that happened in my childhood.

What is required is not a direct military confrontation, but gradual steps to dismantle the party's military and security structure.
