Will Israel Expand Its War into Lebanon? Rami Khouri on Netanyahu's Latest Threats

0

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has announced that the Israeli military plans to shift its focus to Lebanon, from where attacks on Israel by Hezbollah have escalated in recent months. “The Lebanon-Israel border is more dangerous than ever because of the capabilities that Hezbollah has,” says Palestinian American journalist Rami Khouri. He explains how the balance of power has shifted in the region, but warns of the potentially “devastating” effects of a full-scale war in Lebanon. Khouri adds, “We’ve passed the point where Israel and the U.S. dominate the strategic realities, military realities, in the Middle East.”
