Lebanese Minister Ghassan Salamé has publicly questioned the feasibility of disarming Hezbollah in Lebanon. He argued that if Israel has been unable to achieve the complete disarmament of Hamas in Gaza after more than two years, it is unrealistic to expect the much smaller and weaker Lebanese Armed Forces to accomplish that task against Hezbollah. Salamé emphasized that Hezbollah's members are not foreigners but are deeply embedded within Lebanese society. His comments highlight the significant political and military challenges facing any potential disarmament effort in Lebanon.
