Ben Caspit - Al-Monitor:

"Israel" has so far avoided directing a preemptive strike against Hezbollah, for fear of the devastation that the party might inflict deep inside Israel.

The acquisition of precision offensive capabilities against Israeli infrastructure, military airfields, and other strategic objectives is something Israel cannot afford.

Baasiri to "Al Jadeed": I have no knowledge of my name being put forward to head the government, and I accept to be in any position to serve Lebanon. https://twitter.com/UpdatesLebanese/status/1312511223817142272 https://t.co/UASHgesMCv

Baasiri: We are a natural extension of the USA banking sector, considering that our economy is dollarized, and it is necessary for us to have the best relations with the USA. As the deputy governor of the Central Bank of Lebanon, it was my role to facilitate these relations.

Baasiri: Hezbollah refused my return to the Banque du Liban and placed a veto on me because they think I'm an "American deposit".

Note: The USA ambassador pressured the government to keep him as the deputy.

When they didn't allow China to join the ISS, China built their own station.

Baasiri to Al-Jadeed: We have gold reserves of nearly 10 million ounces, or about $ 18 billion, so why not resort to this reserve by mortgaging it to compensate those affected by the Beirut port explosion?
