Could anyone give me a rundown on this and how it would come into play if Israel invades or launches major strikes into Lebanon? I understand their political wing holds a small minority in the government, but I’m not sure if their militant wing is endorsed or directly supported by the government.

    Thanks, do you think the Lebanese military will just abandon the southern half of the country if Israel invades? Is it possible they would even join or help coordinate the attack? Or are they an afterthought?

      Whatever role they play it will not be on the right side of history. Last week: https://www.lebarmy.gov.lb/en/content/lebanese-armed-forces-commander-meets-commander-us-central-command-general-michael-kurilla

      Within the framework of his visit to the United States, the Lebanese Armed Forces Commander, General Joseph Aoun, met with the Commander of the United States Central Command, General Michael Kurilla, at the Central Command headquarters in Tampa. The discussion focused on the general situation in Lebanon and the region, as well as ways to enhance cooperation between the Lebanese and US armies.
