With Its Masters In Tehran Weakened, Now Is The Golden Opportunity To Free Lebanon From Hezbollah’s Demonic Grip
We can’t talk about the Iranian regime’s 47-year reign of terror without talking about Hezbollah. The Lebanon-based terror group is the crown jewel among Iran’s many regional proxies.
Iran’s Ayatollahs created Hezbollah back in 1982, and over the past several decades, the so-called “Party of Allah” grew into the world’s most powerful terrorist organization.
Hezbollah had 150,000 rockets and missiles and a fleet of attack drones at its disposal, not to mention the tens of thousands of fanatical foot soldiers ready and willing to storm across the border and invade Israel from its base in southern Lebanon.
It would have been October 7th on steroids. But a funny thing happened on the way to Hezbollah’s conquest of northern Israel.
It all began on September 17th, 2024, when Israel carried out the now-legendary beeper operation that put thousands of top Hezbollah fighters out of action. Then came the elimination of Hezbollah’s military and political leadership, including Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah. Israel followed those takeouts with a ground invasion that pushed Hezbollah back beyond the Lotani River, some 20 miles from the Israel-Lebanon border.
And now, Israel is well on its way to finishing the job and ensuring that Hezbollah never threatens the Jewish state in any meaningful way ever again.
On Tuesday, representatives from Israel and Lebanon met in Washington, D.C. for historic peace talks aimed at ending Hezbollah’s dark influence in Lebanon, where they’ve really established a state within a state, all with the active support and funding of the Iranian regime. The good news is the talks seem to have gone very well.
“We discovered today that we’re on the same side of the equation,” Israel’s ambassador to the United States, Yechiel Leiter, who led the Israeli delegation, said. “That’s the most positive thing we could have come away with.”
“We are both united in liberating Lebanon from an occupation power dominated by Iran called Hezbollah,” he underscored. “Lebanon is under their occupation, and we are suffering from their constant barrages of missiles and terror attacks trying to cross our border.”
Secretary of State Marco Rubio sat in on the meetings, and he shared the ambassador’s optimism. Hezbollah and its masters in Tehran have never been weaker, and there is a golden opportunity here to free the people of Lebanon from Hezbollah’s demonic grip.
“This is about bringing a permanent end to 20 or 30 years of Hezbollah’s influence in this part of the world,” Rubio stated. “Not just the damage it’s inflicted on Israel, the damage it’s inflicted on the Lebanese people. We have to remember, the Lebanese people are victims of Hezbollah. The Lebanese people are victims of Iranian aggression, and this needs to stop.”
“I know this will be a process,” he continued, “all of the complexities of this matter are not going to be resolved in the next six hours, but we can begin to move forward to create the framework where something can happen, something very positive, something very permanent, so the people of Lebanon can have the kind of future they deserve, and so that the people of Israel can live without fear of being struck by rocket attacks from the terrorist proxy of Iran.”
Folks, it’s very clear we are on the verge of a new Middle East.
