Hezbollah’s Secretary General Naim Qassem has said his organization would refuse to surrender its weapons, even at the risk of civil war in Lebanon. The Lebanese army, meanwhile, has been infiltrated by Hezbollah, according to a new report by the Alma Research and Education center. Reserve IDF major Avraham Levine of the Alma Research and Education center, said that the infiltration has been so great even if weapons are confiscated, they would likely be returned later. He told reporter Arieh O’Sullivan that even though Hezbollah has lost some of it support from Iran, it would still not surrender its weapons since it was their rasion d’etre.
