Israel couldn't invade Lebanon in 2006 after the Lebanese President and Prime Minister refused 'orders' by France to attack their own people (the resistance, funny right?), so they wanted to do it themselves. They tried and failed, so they are using and doing everything they can to create trouble between different sects internally, just like the Arab Spring that happened.
The poor can't win a revolution, history will teach you that, there's always someone with power and money behind it supplying and enforcing it. In Lebanon's case it's Israel who's trying.
Israel is trying to cause another civil war in Lebanon, one we do not want and do not need at all! All it wants is destruction for us Lebanese.
I'm not saying Lebanon has clean hands at all, we had a civil war that lasted 15 years, but once that civil war ends the truth slowly starts to come out, and guess who had a large part in causing that civil war? Both Israel and the Palestinians. Israel just couldn't invade Lebanon and take care of the PLO (who they just kicked out of their homes and took their land) so they helped cause the civil war that actually lasted 15 years. Before that time, in the 70's, my father still had Lebanese Jewish friends at least living peacefully with Muslims, Christians, Druze etc...
The Lebanese aren't very fond of the Palestinians either, but once you see their suffering and understand that their homes have just been taken away from them, you can only blame the Zionist ideology that started all this.
We're really tired of conflict, all we do is try to survive in this God forsaken region.
