We are before a new and at the same time repeated chapter in the history of the Shiites and Jabal Amel. And we will cross into a new Middle East, at a heavy price.

It is the result of the wrong choices of the political and religious officials in the Shiite community. Joining the Iranian project makes Jabal Amel a card in the game of nations competing for influence in the region and turns southerners into scapegoats and Jabal Amel into scorched land. The Shiites need an alternative narrative, open to peace in the region with Israel, and less tied to religious and superstitious legacies.

The Shiite displacement is not the first in their history. The most recent was the campaign of Wali Ahmad Pasha on Jabal Amel as a result of a miscalculation in the political position of the Shiite leader in Jabal Amel at the time, Nassif al-Nassar, and his affiliations. And a military miscalculation, as the latter thought he would fight the army of al-Jazzar and the Janissary army with hundreds of sons of the villages.

Olive cultivation in Lebanon represents a distinctive case compared with other crops, given that the fate of a wide segment of farmers is tied to this sector. About 12 million olive trees are planted in Lebanon over an area of 62,000 hectares, representing about 24% of the utilized cultivated area of 260,000 hectares, which gives the sector a major opportunity for Lebanon to be among the leading countries in producing competitive-quality olive oil.

It is very unfortunate that Lebanese are being misled by talk of the government being lost or confused, as if it were subject to external bets and imaginary calculations. Our government governs by the force of the constitution, the law, and the parliamentary confidence granted to us twice, not once, and in accordance with its ministerial statement, not any alleged illusions.
