Peace with Lebanon will be no different from other Arab "peaces"

The equation: The goal of war is to lead to peace. This is from a logical, theoretical standpoint, or at least from the justificatory standpoint for aggressive, unjust wars, like those presented by America in the war on Iraq, and before that Libya, Syria, Vietnam, Korea, and many Latin American countries, their backyard, and most recently on Venezuela and the kidnapping of its president and his wife. We don't know why it didn't include his sons and daughters. In the war on Afghanistan, to eliminate Al-Qaeda and the Taliban, they handed over the key to the country to those they went to eliminate after twenty years of war, fighting, and occupation. So, will peace prevail after the end of the aggressive American-Israeli war on Iran, between America and Israel on one hand, and Iran on the other? The facts do not suggest this, even if America defeats Iran. True peace cannot be imposed by the force that Trump and Netanyahu speak of morning and night. Rather, we can say that peace contradicts brutal, criminal, genocidal military force. The "peace" between Arab countries that was signed with Israel, despite several decades passing, has not moved an inch towards the people, nor has it reached the streets. Instead, it has remained confined to the corridors of politicians. Peace with Lebanon, which is being urgently discussed now, will not be a different peace from other Arab "peaces" – a cold, empty peace devoid of its positive contents that bring warmth to the limbs, and security, stability, and prosperity. There is no war between Lebanon and Israel in the first place, just as there was no war between the four Abrahamic normalization countries, to speak of establishing peace between them and Israel. In reality, these Abrahamic agreements were a different kind of war, extortionate, to pressure and weaken Palestinian resistance and enable the occupying Israel to impose more of its conditions, even if their proponents claimed otherwise. And here, ten years have passed, so where was the Palestinian cause and where has it become? The war with Lebanon is with Hezbollah, which is not only ignored in these discussions and preparations, but there is an intention to eliminate it, or at the very least, disarm it, and even for the state, through its army, to participate in this mission. What kind of "peace" will be built on the blood of the Lebanese with the weapons of the Lebanese? Isn't it more appropriate for there to be peace among the Lebanese before peace with the Israelis? And on the other hand, when did this party become a formidable obstacle to peace? Wasn't that in the midst of the occupation of Beirut, the country's capital, more than forty years ago, half the life of this conflict with this entity? The same applies to the Hamas movement, which was not established and crystallized until more than twenty years after the occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Make peace for Palestine, and you will make peace in the Middle East.
