Netanyahu: After the ceasefire in Lebanon, Hamas will be alone

@AlArabiya_Brk

Puzzled by this ceasefire! Trying to understand why would Hezbollah agree to a ceasefire now when it was Hezbollah who unilaterally attacked Israel after October 7, 2023 to divide the Israeli attention as an attempt to support Gaza. Why a ceasefire now after so much death and destruction in Lebanon?! But it doesn't appear Hezbollah has that weakened.
From what I have pieced together, a 60-day ceasefire in Lebanon is a prelude to similar temporary ceasefire in Gaza and the 60-day period allows Biden some stupid point scoring as he leaves office; multiple sources saying Biden had threatened Israel with a UNSC vote imposing a ceasefire if Biden was not given at least this tiny 'credit'. And Israelis, who always wanted a ceasefire in the north anyway, don't mind obliging Biden and the 60-day period Trump will almost certainly give all Netanyahu wants. Also, both Iran and Hamas saying okay for Hezbollah to take a break from the fighting.

But I don't know. Information is not clear so far.

Hezbollah is intact and not defeated

but Israel has been levelling high rise after high rise in Beirut and they has been putting alot of pressure on Lebanese government which is funded by USA

Lebanese have lost too much because Israel has been hitting the soft targets to force pressure on Hezbollah

that seems to have worked

I read it the same as you, ie a staggered ceasefire first with Lebanon, and then with Hamas, all due to expire after Trump takes power. Israel, would then have to dare to start things "up again" on Trumps watch, which he wont like. In the meanwhile, the Americans will refill Israels ammunition stocks over this period ( just keep an eye on the air-bridge between the USA and Israel ).

Also, Iran is pushing for this ceasefire, as it does not want a regional war that involves Syria any further ( pretty sure Russia is pushing for a ceasefire as it does not want Syria to be further destablished. ).

Netanyahu really does view toppling Hamas as changing the face of the region. Because indeed with Hamas and it's popular support, it is the only road block for Israeli hegemony and comfort.

Hamas out of the picture would make for dangerous developments in the region. Especially on religious and cultural side. They will move full force to spread people away from Islam and push them towards superstition/shirk.

The ceasefire is with the government of Lebanon..Hezbollah is a political party (with an armed wing)..not the whole government..so this was sort of imposed on it..

Nothing radicalized me but zionism itself. When I was 17, my parents were away, & I attended Passover seder at a family friend's home. The father joked about throwing Palestinians into the sea. I've never forgotten. Over the past year+, I've seen ppl speak this way more openly.
