US to Hezbollah: Don’t count on us to stop an Israeli attack
The blunt message comes as many U.S. officials appear resigned to the possibility that Israel will make a major move against Hezbollah inside Lebanon in the coming weeks.
Two U.S. officials told POLITICO that the militia needs to also understand that Washington will help Israel defend itself if Hezbollah retaliates. They stressed that the militant group should not count on America to act as a brake on Israeli decision-making.
The message is being conveyed indirectly, the person said; the U.S. doesn’t engage Hezbollah one-on-one because it is a designated terrorist organization, and it relies on public communications or intermediaries.
“Israel’s gotta do what they gotta do,” a Defense Department official said, having been granted anonymity, like others, to speak frankly.
Israeli leaders do not appear to have made a final decision on what to do, though none seems to want an all-out war, and neither does Iran, the two U.S. officials said.
The U.S. intelligence community believes that Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah doesn’t want a war, but assesses that the risk of one is heightened this month as is the risk of a miscalculation on either side, according to another senior U.S. official.

Continued from the Politico article
It’s not clear exactly what options Israel is considering against Hezbollah, which is not only heavily armed but also wields political influence in Lebanon. An air operation could help deter the group, while a ground invasion could establish a buffer zone. A combination also is possible.
But Joint Chiefs Chair Gen. C.Q. Brown also had a warning for Israel.
If a broader conflict erupts between Israel and Hezbollah, it may be more difficult for the U.S. to help defend Israel compared with the April 13 missile barrage from Iran, he told reporters traveling with him on Sunday.
That’s because Hezbollah is geographically closer than Iran, therefore an attack requires a shorter response time. Hezbollah also has more rockets than Hamas.

✍ Not covering internal Lebanese news much because there isn't anything really worthy.
I might occasionally post some videos and caption them, about some controversial politicians stances, but other than that, nothing.
The only thing I wanted to highlight about now, is that while Hezbullah is fighting a front against Israel in the south under the pretext of supporting Gaza's survival, its opposition in Lebanon is mounting a very dangerous attack on it.
Political and religious parties have openly called to fight against Hezbullah with weapons, and used every possible medium to attempt to showcase Hezbullah as evil and a force that needs to be ended.
They also openly asked for foreign pressure and celebrated destruction.
Attacks expanded to targeting the Lebanese Shia population, and involved a lot of disgusting secterian lies.
Frankly it is mostly the absolute majority of the Lebanese Christian parties, excluding Franjieh.
Druze are mostly on the line, because of the honorable stance taken by Walid Joumblat. Sunnis are openly voicing support to Gaza and mostly abstaining from attacks on Hezbullah.
