“The army command has just announced it is reinstating Wafiq Shuqair as the head of airport security and will investigate Hizbullah’s communications network ‘without harming the resistance’, asking for the withdrawal of all armed men and the reopening of the streets,” reports In the Middle of the East about the government's decisions that started the current crisis in Lebanon.

Game over. Iran’s “Gaza Strip II” succeeded.
I wish they would, but strongly believe that Wafiq Shuqair will continue to allow Iranians weapons to flow into Lebanon (those very weapons that were used against Lebanese!)
And the communication network will stay – it is needed for Hizbullah’s next unprovoked attack on Israel.
Sorry Sunnis, Christians. Your enslavement by Iran is approaching.
