Withdrawing Lebanese forces from Syria
2017-04-15
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Roles have ironically reversed in Syria with the conflict and the power of Damascus now coming under the watch of Lebanese militias.

Seen in this perspective, we will consider that Hezbollah militias are Lebanese forces, and in fact, are practically Lebanese as they consider themselves equivalent to the Lebanese army. This situation takes us back to a time when there were popular demands in Leb as well as international calls to withdraw Syrian forces from Leb.

The withdrawal of Hezbollah and other forces and militias from Syria is the main trigger of the debate between the US and Russian governments, as part of the discussions held to find a peaceful solution. The Americans want to end the presence of foreign armed forces supporting the Syrian regime, mainly Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, Lebanese Hezbollah and the Iraqi, Pak, Afghan and other foreign militias.

#1  I was never troubled by Syrian forces in Lebanon nor am I trouble now by Lebanese forces in Syria. Somehow, either way, I just can't get all that excited about it.
