Transcript [00:00] So, we've been talking nonstop about [00:02] this MOU and the implications of it and [00:05] a lot of people are upset about it. [00:06] There's a lot of criticism being being [00:09] being thrown around at the Trump [00:11] administration, especially from the [00:12] pro-Israel community. But what what I [00:14] want to share in this video [00:16] is reactions from Lebanon, from the [00:20] Lebanese community specifically, but [00:22] also maybe we'll throw in a couple of [00:24] other reactions from the Arab world. But [00:25] I want to mainly focus on reactions to [00:28] this coming out of Lebanon because [00:31] Lebanon is mentioned in this agreement [00:34] both in the original MOU [00:37] in clause one of the 14 as well as in [00:41] the memo that was issued by Pakistan and [00:44] Qatar [00:46] giving the [00:48] conclusions, the whatever was agreed [00:50] upon in the talks that took place um [00:55] in Geneva or Lucerne or wherever they [00:57] took place. [00:58] So, let's just sum up what happened with [01:00] Lebanon. So, in in the memorandum of [01:03] understanding, the original one, in [01:04] clause one, it said that what has to [01:06] happen there is that there has to be a [01:07] cessation of hostilities in Lebanon. [01:10] Okay? [01:11] And what they mean by that is between [01:12] Israel and Hezbollah. [01:15] But then in the [01:17] in the in the memo that was issued at [01:20] the end of these talks [01:23] it says as follows. It says that Iran [01:26] and the United States are going to set [01:27] up a deconfliction cell [01:31] with Lebanon to stop to de-escalate [01:34] things, to [01:36] to have like dialogue to you know, so [01:38] that things don't escalate. Here's the [01:40] exact text in that memo. It says, "The [01:42] parties which means the US and Iran [01:46] agreed on the creation of a [01:48] deconfliction cell between the parties [01:51] and the Lebanese government [01:54] I'm sorry, and the Lebanese Republic [01:56] and facilitated by the mediators [01:58] Pakistan and Qatar to ensure the [02:01] adherence of the termination of military [02:03] operations in Lebanon. Okay, so this [02:06] this obviously gives the Iranians a [02:11] a foothold, a say, they're a player at [02:14] the table for de-escalation issues [02:18] in Lebanon. [02:21] Okay, so there's been reaction in [02:23] Lebanon to this MOU and [02:27] lo and behold, the Lebanese people are [02:29] not so happy about it. Let's take a [02:32] look. [02:34] Okay, so here we'll start with this and [02:36] I'm going to tell you what we're talking [02:38] about very senior people. [02:40] Samir Geagea [02:43] is the leader of the Lebanese Forces [02:45] Party. The Lebanese Forces Party is the [02:47] largest political party in the Lebanese [02:50] Parliament. So, we're not talking about [02:52] a marginal figure. We're talking about a [02:53] very significant political figure. [02:56] Uh Lebanese Lebanese Forces Party is a [02:59] Christian party. They have 19 seats [03:02] in the Lebanese Parliament. Again, the [03:04] largest party in Lebanon and let's see [03:05] what he has to say here. [03:07] His Excellency His His Excellency the [03:10] Vice President of the United States, the [03:11] honorable the honorable Mr. J.D. Vance, [03:14] warm greetings and thereafter. [03:16] I have reviewed with interest and [03:17] appreciation your statement in which you [03:20] expressed your friendship and concern [03:21] for the Christians of Lebanon. [03:23] As the president of the Lebanese Forces [03:25] Party, the largest Christian party in [03:27] Lebanon, [03:29] I saw fit to address you with this [03:30] letter to express my deepest gratitude [03:32] for your words [03:34] and for what they reflect of genuine [03:35] friendship and profound concern for the [03:37] Christians of Lebanon. Because J.D. [03:39] Vance had put had said something in an [03:40] interview on Fox News about how we love [03:43] the Christians of Lebanon and they [03:44] should hold fast to their faith in Jesus [03:46] and we and we're going to try to bring [03:47] peace. It was all like platitudes about [03:50] the Christians of Lebanon. [03:55] So, he wants to express it. He says, "I [03:56] want to express my my deepest gratitude [03:58] for your words and what they reflect of [04:00] genuine friendship and profound concern [04:02] for the Christians of Lebanon and by [04:03] extension for all Lebanese people. [04:05] Lebanese Christians have throughout [04:07] modern Lebanese history [04:09] and will continue to constitute an [04:12] element of stability, openness, [04:14] moderation, and cultural and [04:16] civilizational prosperity in this in [04:19] this East. [04:20] Lebanon has distinguished itself thanks [04:23] to its pluralism, public freedoms, open [04:25] system, and cultural and economic role [04:27] with a unique status that has made it a [04:29] space of radiance in a turbulent [04:31] environment. [04:32] It is true that the past four decades [04:34] have been among the most difficult [04:36] stages experienced by the Lebanese in [04:38] general and Christians in particular as [04:41] a result of the establishment of [04:42] Hezbollah as a military and security [04:45] organization which has usurped national [04:47] decision-making, weakened legitimate [04:50] institutions, prevented the [04:52] establishment of an effective and [04:53] capable state, and furthermore, [04:55] embroiled Lebanon in conflicts [04:59] and wars linked to Iranian agendas that [05:01] do not represent the interests or [05:03] aspirations of the Lebanese. [05:05] This has had a negative impact on the [05:07] Lebanese economy, reduced job [05:08] opportunities, and driven large numbers [05:10] of Lebanese, including a significant [05:13] proportion of Christians, to emigrate in [05:16] search of safety, stability, and [05:18] opportunities for a dignified life. [05:21] Nevertheless, the Christians who have [05:23] faced throughout their long history, [05:26] both ancient and modern, challenges and [05:28] ordeals more severe than these, have [05:31] always managed to overcome them thanks [05:33] to their attachment to their land, their [05:35] faith in freedom, [05:37] and their determination to remain in [05:39] their homeland to preserve their [05:40] national and civilizational identity. [05:43] Today, as yesterday, they They steadfast [05:46] in their faith and convictions, [05:48] resilient in the face of in the face of [05:50] challenges and determined along with all [05:52] other Lebanese to restore their state, [05:55] their institutions, and their full [05:56] sovereignty, meaning to get away from [05:58] Hezbollah, relying on support from their [06:00] friends in the East and West, foremost [06:03] among them the United States of America. [06:06] In this context, we believe that the [06:08] greatest contribution the United States [06:10] of America can offer Lebanon [06:12] at this delicate stage lies in [06:14] supporting the Lebanese state and its [06:16] legitimate institutions as the sole [06:19] national reference, [06:21] confining any negotiation or approach to [06:23] the Lebanese file to the Lebanese state [06:25] alone, [06:27] and permanently removing Iran from the [06:29] Lebanese file in a way that helps the [06:31] Lebanese definitively reclaim their [06:33] national decision-making and prevents [06:36] any continuation of foreign [06:38] interventions in their internal affairs. [06:39] You understand what happened here. [06:42] By allowing the Iran by literally [06:46] agreeing with Iran First of all, in the [06:48] MOU, which was signed between the [06:49] Iranians and the Americans, [06:52] the fact that it says anything there [06:54] about Lebanon, [06:57] it doesn't even mention Hezbollah. [07:00] Talks about Lebanon, but then even [07:02] worse, [07:04] this deconfliction cell, this this this [07:06] mechanism for for dialogue [07:10] to deal with escalations and skirmishes [07:13] and violations of ceasefires that take [07:15] place between Hezbollah and and Israel [07:19] that is supposed to be de-escalation in [07:21] Lebanon, it allow it gives the Iranians [07:23] a seat at the table. Like, the Americans [07:25] are agreeing that the Iranians should be [07:27] part of that conversation. And here is [07:29] this very prominent Lebanese politician [07:30] saying, "Excuse me, you keep talking [07:33] about the importance of Lebanese [07:35] sovereignty and Lebanese territorial [07:36] integrity and how we need to give [07:38] Lebanon back its you know, its [07:40] independence. [07:43] We can only do that if Iran has zero [07:46] seat at the table. [07:50] Leban- the state of Lebanon has to be [07:52] able to make its own decisions, and the [07:54] United States is [07:55] is [07:56] ratifying, is agreeing that Iran should [07:59] be part of those conversations. [08:02] Furthermore, supporting the current [08:04] Lebanese state in extending its full [08:06] authority over all its territories, [08:08] confining arms to the hands of [08:10] legitimate institutions alone, and [08:12] ending the military and security [08:14] presence of Hezbollah [08:16] constitutes, in our view, the greatest [08:18] contribution that could be made to the [08:19] Christians [08:21] of Lebanon and to all Lebanese people, [08:24] as it opens the door to building the [08:26] state we all aspire to. An effective, [08:29] sovereign state that is free, strong, [08:30] and capable of ensuring security, [08:32] stability, and prosperity for all [08:33] citizens. Do you understand? Ending the [08:35] military and security presence of [08:36] Hezbollah. [08:38] And yet, [08:40] J.D. Vance said, "You know, it'll be you [08:41] know, if if anyone fires a rocket, you [08:43] know, [08:44] we'll have dialogue between the Israelis [08:46] and the Iranians and Hezbollah and the [08:48] Lebanese and like we'll all be talking." [08:51] And telling Israel to back off and and [08:54] not to respond harshly and not to go on [08:56] the offensive against Hezbollah because [08:58] you want your MOU deal to go through [09:01] is extending a lifeline to Hezbollah. [09:05] That's what he's bringing up here. [09:07] Allow me, in conclusion, to renew to [09:09] you, on my behalf and on behalf of a [09:11] broad segment of the Lebanese people in [09:12] general and Christians in particular who [09:14] aspire to the establishment of an [09:16] effective and capable state in their [09:18] homeland, my deepest thanks and [09:20] appreciation for the friendship and [09:21] concern you have shown toward the [09:22] Christians of Lebanon. Hoping that the [09:25] United States of America will remain a [09:26] key partner in helping Lebanon reclaim [09:29] its natural role as a model of freedom, [09:31] pluralism, and peace in the Middle East. [09:33] Please accept my utmost respect and [09:35] appreciation, Samir [09:37] Geagea I don't know how to pronounce his [09:39] name, president of the Lebanese Forces [09:41] Party. Now, he was very polite, but he [09:43] was pushing back on the MOU. Now, we're [09:44] going to see some other reactions that [09:45] aren't as polite. Here's another [09:47] reaction. [09:49] This is much shorter. [09:51] And this is Sami Gemayel. Also, these [09:53] are I'm not I didn't just look on [09:55] Twitter for random, [09:57] you know, you know, you know, [09:58] cherry-picked statements. These are all [10:01] prominent people. That was I just showed [10:03] you the the first one was the head of [10:04] the largest party in the Iranian [10:06] Parliament. And this one, Sami Gemayel, [10:08] he is the leader of the Kataeb Party, [10:11] another party in the Lebanese [10:14] government, also a Christian party. [10:16] Okay, he's also the leader of a party in [10:18] the Lebanese government. He has seats in [10:20] the Lebanese government, very prominent [10:21] person, Sami Gemayel. [10:23] Look what he writes here. "We will not [10:26] coexist with Hezbollah's weapon, no [10:27] matter what the outcomes of the external [10:30] negotiations may be. [10:32] They must place themselves under the [10:34] roof of the state and the law and adhere [10:35] to the state's conditions. But most [10:37] Lebanese are not prepared to live as [10:39] hostages to to Hezbollah. We will live [10:41] in peace in our land and safety, [10:42] freedom, and dignity. We will not go [10:44] back, and this will be the end of the [10:45] sorrows." This is all in response to [10:48] what's happening with this MOU. [10:51] Understand that. [10:53] The people [10:54] the the Christians in Lebanon are [10:56] furious [10:58] with Hezbollah given legitimacy by these [11:01] agreements. [11:05] Peter Germano's. [11:06] So, Peter Germano's, um, [11:08] conservative Catholic, um, geopolitical [11:11] analyst. He was he's a professor. He was [11:14] also a a judge. He was like one of the [11:17] main He was I think the the the chief [11:20] justice of the military court in [11:21] Lebanon. [11:23] Okay, look what he writes. [11:25] "Dear President Dear Vice President J.D. [11:27] Vance, I'm a Lebanese and I will say [11:29] plainly what many avoid to say publicly. [11:31] Lebanese Christians do not ask for [11:33] privilege. They do not ask for [11:35] domination over others. They do not ask [11:36] for revenge, partition, or permanent [11:38] conflict. What they ask for is much [11:40] simpler and much deeper, the right to [11:41] survive, to remain rooted in their land, [11:44] to educate their children, to preserve [11:45] their faith and culture, and to live [11:47] under a stable political order that does [11:49] not leave them permanently exposed to [11:51] demographic pressure, armed [11:52] intimidation, economic collapse, and [11:55] foreign-controlled militias. Since the [11:57] creation of Greater Lebanon in 1920, [12:00] Christian presence in Lebanon has been [12:01] reshaped by repeated shocks. The crisis [12:04] of 1958, the Cairo agreement of 1969, [12:07] the civil war beginning in 1975, foreign [12:10] occupations, regional wars fought on [12:12] Lebanese soil, the Taif agreement of [12:14] 1989, mass emigration, economic [12:16] destruction after 2019, and the growing [12:19] feeling that the Lebanese state can no [12:21] longer guarantee equal citizenship or [12:23] basic security. The central question is [12:26] no longer theoretical, it's existential. [12:28] What do Christians want? They want a [12:30] state where the army alone carries the [12:32] arms. [12:34] They want a judiciary that's [12:35] independent, not controlled by political [12:37] parties or armed factions. They want [12:39] their deposits, properties, schools, [12:40] universities, churches, businesses, and [12:42] and municipalities protected by law. [12:45] They want real decentralization allowing [12:47] communities to manage education, [12:49] security, development, taxation, [12:50] infrastructure, and public services [12:53] without being held hostage by a [12:54] paralyzed and corrupt central state. [12:57] They want international guarantees that [12:59] Lebanon will not again be handed over to [13:01] Syria, Iran, Hezbollah, or any regional [13:04] power claiming the right to decide its [13:05] future. This is a direct pushback to [13:07] President Trump saying, "Oh, I'm going [13:09] to get the Syrians involved in fighting [13:11] Hezbollah." And and meanwhile, at the [13:13] same time, telling Israel to back off on [13:15] hitting Hezbollah and setting up a [13:16] deconfliction cell that gives Iran a [13:19] seat at the table to discuss, you know, [13:22] what's going to happen in Lebanon on an [13:24] ongoing basis. [13:26] Understand how enraged the Lebanese [13:28] Christian community is. [13:31] They're the ones more willing to It's [13:32] It's really more Lebanese than the [13:33] Christians, but generally in the Muslim [13:35] community, they're more afraid to speak [13:36] out. [13:39] They want a Lebanon where Muslims and [13:40] Christians can live together freely. [13:43] But not under the shadow of weapons, [13:45] intimidation, democratic, or ideological [13:47] dominion. [13:48] Many Lebanese still believe in [13:49] coexistence. [13:51] I'm going to skip a little bit here. [13:52] It's a very long message. [13:57] Lebanese are not asking America to fight [13:59] their battles for them. They're asking [14:00] America to stop legitimizing the [14:03] structures that made their survival [14:04] impossible. Boom. [14:07] Stop. They're asking America to stop [14:09] legitimizing the structures that made [14:11] their survival impossible. Freedom, [14:13] security, self-government, a Lebanon [14:15] that is neutral, sovereign, [14:16] decentralized, economically free. [14:21] If the international community waits [14:22] until the last family leaves, it will [14:24] not be able to say it did not know. [14:27] Look, he's trying to be polite. They're [14:28] trying to be respectful. These are very [14:30] prominent figures, leaders of two of the [14:33] parties, one of them being the largest [14:34] party in the country, [14:36] uh very important figure in the legal [14:38] community. [14:40] Now, we have a um [14:42] um [14:43] Nadim Koteich. He's a very prominent [14:46] journalist. He was a former general [14:47] manager of Sky News Arabia, a columnist [14:50] for Asharq Al-Awsat. He's written in for [14:52] the Wall Street Journal and The [14:53] Spectator and more. [14:55] And he's He's more blunt. He's a more of [14:57] a journalist. Take Take a look at what [14:58] he says here. Washington handed Iran the [15:00] keys, the deed, and the funds deposited [15:04] in the treasury before he even [15:06] confirming that the Iranian check had [15:08] been cashed. This is the deal that Trump [15:10] signed, which I suggest reading [15:12] according to the order of execution [15:14] priorities, not based on flashy [15:15] headlines. [15:18] The 13th clause represents the key that [15:20] decodes the agreement. That's the one [15:21] that says what has to be done [15:22] immediately, ceasefire, end of the naval [15:23] blockade, uh freedom of opening up the [15:26] Strait of Hormuz, [15:28] um [15:29] lifting the sanctions on exporting their [15:31] oil and releasing frozen funds. [15:36] I want to get to where he talks about [15:37] Lebanon. [15:38] As for Lebanon, cuz he's from Lebanon, [15:41] the memorandum of understanding declares [15:43] the war's end definitively, but the true [15:45] closure of the front is referred to a [15:47] future agreement that the two parties [15:49] can postpone indefinitely. And the irony [15:52] is that the two parties who actually [15:53] fought, Israel and Hezbollah, signed [15:56] nothing. [15:57] Their guns fell silent, relatively [15:59] speaking, because Washington and Tehran [16:01] wanted it that way. And this calm will [16:03] endure only as long as the latter's [16:05] desire does. This agreement halts [16:07] Hezbollah's war and even drops the [16:10] justification for its fighting, but it [16:12] leaves its weapons untouched, a [16:14] situation Iran prefers perfectly, [16:17] because the existence of an armed and [16:18] silent Hezbollah gives her a power card [16:21] she can reactivate in future bargaining [16:23] rounds. [16:24] Thus, the document puts an end to the [16:26] war, preserved the militia, Hezbollah, [16:29] and handed Lebanon a strong argument for [16:31] disarmament without actually disarming [16:33] it of anything. [16:39] And finally, let's take a look at this [16:41] Saudi writer, very prominent Saudi [16:43] writer. [16:44] Okay? [16:45] That's him. [16:46] What does he write here? [16:48] The most evident American improvisation [16:50] in the agreement with Iran lies in the [16:52] commitment to halt operations in [16:54] Lebanon. [16:55] At a time when Washington is pressuring [16:57] the Lebanese government to work [16:59] tirelessly toward disarming Hezbollah, [17:03] right? So, here's what the Americans are [17:05] doing. They're pressuring the Lebanese [17:06] government. They're saying, "You have to [17:08] work to disarm Hezbollah." [17:10] Under a demand backed by broad popular [17:12] sectors, Christian Sunnis, others, [17:16] who are in favor of the Lebanese state. [17:18] Trump wants, but simultaneously, he [17:20] wants to stop operations in Lebanon. [17:23] From whom? [17:24] From a party that raises the banner of [17:26] resistance and knows full well that its [17:29] legitimacy [17:31] is eroding if it fails to deliver on [17:33] anything it it promised its supporters [17:35] while Israel fights in Lebanon under the [17:37] pretext of security. [17:39] Then Trump comes out and proposes Syrian [17:41] intervention in Lebanon, ignoring [17:43] Syria's exhausted reality after the [17:45] revolution and its need for stability, [17:47] development, and institution building, [17:49] not entry into an additional military [17:51] confrontation, while alluding to a [17:53] historical reality from the 20th century [17:55] when the Christians who opposed the [17:57] party today [17:59] were themselves the ones confronting [18:00] Syrian intervention back then. So, what [18:02] synthesis does Trump propose propose [18:05] amid these components to fulfill his [18:07] pledge? It doesn't seem to go beyond his [18:09] talk of turning Gaza into a tourist [18:11] resort. Great final line. In other [18:13] words, just like in the Trump 20-point [18:16] plan, we're going to have a new Gaza and [18:18] it's going to be a tourist resort and [18:20] it's all empty talk, none of it's ever [18:22] going to happen. He's saying it's the [18:24] same thing here. [18:25] But look how upset they are about [18:26] Lebanon. [18:28] And this is a Saudi writer basically [18:29] saying, "Look at what Look at what Trump [18:30] is doing to Lebanon." They are I'm [18:32] telling you the Arab world is appalled. [18:34] And this is this is just a small a small [18:38] taste of what's out there in in Arab [18:40] media. [18:41] There are editorials being written in [18:43] all over the Arab world that are just [18:46] horrified [18:48] by how the Americans are handling the [18:50] Lebanon situation. [18:52] Um here is um [18:54] Abdelrahman Al-Rashedi. He's writing in [18:56] Asharq Al-Awsat. This is a Saudi outlet [18:59] that's based in the UK, but it's a Saudi [19:00] outlet. Abdelrahman Al-Rashedi is is the [19:03] former general manager of Al Arabiya [19:05] Television, former editor-in-chief of [19:07] Asharq Al-Awsat, [19:09] um [19:11] which is the leading Arabic weekly. [19:13] He's also the senior columnist at the [19:15] daily newspapers Al Madina Al Bilad, a [19:16] very prominent journalist. I'm not going [19:18] to read this whole article, [19:20] but he refers to this as a spectacular [19:22] Iranian victory. The Vance-Gallibauf [19:25] agreement signed by Trump signed by [19:27] Trump [19:28] is a is preliminary with a deadline of [19:31] no less than 2 months before the final [19:33] agreement is reached. [19:36] And look what he says now. I'm going to [19:37] jump down to a key piece here. [19:43] Listen to what he says. The final [19:44] conclusion is that lifting sanctions and [19:46] allowing it to sell oil will provide it [19:48] with about $200 billion annually along [19:51] with a financial fund for its [19:52] reconstruction, which will ultimately [19:53] grant it about half a trillion dollars. [19:56] This will make Iran a greater monster [19:58] than it was before. [20:01] And he says earlier up in here that [20:03] there's no doubt that they're going to [20:05] use this money [20:07] not for [20:08] helping their people, not for doing [20:10] anything else, but for rebuilding their [20:13] weapons. That is what they're going to [20:15] do with the money. [20:17] Most of the funds that Iran will acquire [20:18] in the current and coming weeks are [20:20] likely to go primarily towards [20:21] strengthening the military regime's [20:23] position, not to support living [20:25] conditions or the Iranian economy. [20:28] The Iranian leadership fears the [20:29] possibility of a return to war against [20:31] it, and its political doctrine considers [20:33] Iran a military power harnessing all its [20:36] resources for this strategy. [20:39] Folks, [20:43] Trump can talk about this as this great [20:45] deal that's going to lead to peace, and [20:46] Vance can talk about how, you know, [20:48] we've made a lot of progress, and and [20:50] we're going to have this fund, and it's [20:52] going to be funded by the regional [20:54] partners. I mean, in [20:56] I made a another video about the about [20:57] the reconstruction fund [21:00] that J.D. Vance says there's a lot of [21:02] interest in the Arab world in investing [21:03] in in in Iran. Look, there is not. [21:07] They're horrified by this whole thing. [21:09] Uh and uh anyway, that's what I wanted [21:11] to share with you today. [21:13] Uh just so you get a a look into how [21:14] this is being received in the Arab [21:17] world, especially in Lebanon. Now, uh I [21:19] don't know where this is going, but the [21:21] [clears throat] [21:21] you know, the Trump administration has [21:22] got to wake up [21:25] to the Lebanon situation, especially the [21:26] minorities. The minorities in Lebanon [21:29] and in Syria over the course ever since [21:32] the Assad regime fell and Trump embraced [21:34] this al-Julani guy, the Kurds, the [21:36] Druze, the Christians [21:39] uh [21:40] all over Lebanon, all over Syria are [21:42] just living in mortal fear right now [21:45] because in Syria Trump has embraced [21:47] al-Julani who's been who's who's whose [21:50] guys [21:52] have been [21:53] massacring [21:55] all the minorities in Syria. [21:57] And then in in Lebanon, he's [22:01] making Iran's uh [22:03] Iran's [22:05] compromise of Lebanese sovereignty [22:08] official. He's he's agreeing to it. He's [22:10] They're agreeing to have Iran have a say [22:12] in in what goes on in Lebanon and tying [22:15] Israel's hands to prevent them from [22:17] getting rid of Hezbollah when everyone [22:18] knows that the only the only entity in [22:21] on the planet that can get rid of [22:22] Hezbollah is the Israelis. [22:25] And you see how upset the Lebanese are. [22:27] Remember, they're never going to say out [22:28] outright, "We want Israel in here [22:31] fighting Hezbollah." They're not going [22:32] to say that. Politically, they can't say [22:34] that. But you saw in all of those [22:35] messages I read, they need to they need [22:37] to get rid of Hezbollah. They need to [22:38] get rid of Hezbollah. These are [22:39] realistic people, these political [22:40] figures, these journalists. They know [22:42] that the only way that that can be done [22:43] is is to give Israel a free hand, let [22:46] them rip off the band-aid and deal with [22:47] it, and then Lebanon can have its [22:49] sovereignty back. [22:50] It's the only way it's going to happen. [22:52] And the Trump administration's approach [22:54] to Lebanon [22:56] has been uh is [22:58] is just again, it is [23:00] scaring the daylights [23:02] out of the Christian community [23:04] especially but out of Lebanese [23:06] every everyone in Lebanon who wants [23:08] Lebanese sovereignty and who wants an [23:09] end [23:11] to to the Iranian foreign influence and [23:13] foreign control of their political [23:15] system is absolutely horrified at what [23:18] the Trump administration is doing right [23:19] now.
