Lebanese army meaning the legitimate army? Or Hezbollah? I assume with a local source they use precise language so likely the former but just want to clarify.
I could see the official military being like “yeah this isn’t our fight” and conserving manpower so they can maintain/take back full control of the state after Hezbollah is diminished. That would be a good move.
If they mean Hezbollah, that’s a different situation though.

I get them. They don’t want to die for the mistakes of Hezbollah

Smart. Hezbollah should do the same, except *they* should withdraw into the Mediterranean Sea and stay there forever.

Now if that army could build a defensive line halfway and keep Hezbollah south.

I get it. Israel is coming for hezbollah whether Lebanon wants it or not. No sense in sending your men to die trying to defend a terrorist organization. It’s the same reason iran has stated they will not be sending troops either. They’re throwing hezbollah under the bus, and leaving them standing alone.

Hezbollah’s remaining leaders is currently withdrawing to Syria. So long to the forgotten foot soldiers of Nasrallah.

Makes sense they aren’t there to attack the Lebanese government.

They pulled back 5km from the border, excellent blocking position, so none of the Hezbulla fighters can retreat. The classic Russian playbook.

Do you guys think Israel have warned and given the lebanese army a heads up? I can swear to you that the Lebanese army hates hizbollah more than Israel. But this can never be ever be known as it’s way to dangerous for them.

It seems they’re prioritizing the safety of their forces over involvement in conflicts driven by Hezbollahh.

I mean…. duh, The actually government of Lebanon wants Hezbollah gone, they have been fighting them for decades. They are more than happy to let the IDF deal with them.

The Lebanese army won’t say it, but they are probably happy to have Israel invade in order to take out Hezbollah.
However, hopefully Israel has a certain goal in mind, achieves it quickly, and then withdraws with minimal damage to Lebanese infrastructure and with limited civilian casualties.

See if Lebanon was smart, they’d attack Hezbollah from the north. So they get stuck between two armies.
