Israel provokes Hezbollah

The Israeli regime’s decades-long animosity toward Lebanese resistance movement Hezbollah has intensified since the start of Syria’s conflict in 2011. Hezbollah fighters have ever since inflicted heavy defeats on anti-Syrian government terrorists along the war-torn country’s border with Lebanon. And the collaboration between those terrorists and Tel Aviv is no secret. Anti-Syrian government militants even receive medical treatments in a field hospital established by Israel in occupied Golan Heights. Now Israel is pushing for the adoption of a condemnatory UN Security Council resolution against Hezbollah. The Israeli military has accused Hezbollah of establishing a vast military network near the frontier with the occupied territories.

France-Germany powerhouse

France and Germany in a rare expression of solidarity. Leaders of both countries used an EU summit in Brussels to deliver what many saw as an unmistakable message to the world. That their countries want to lead the bloc’s revival after a shock caused by Britain’s vote a year ago to pull out of it. The newcomer French President Emmanuel Macron and the German Chancellor Angela Merkel both vowed determination to solidify EU integrity. This is now seen as a remedy to concerns that Britain’s withdrawal would trigger a domino effect that would eventually lead to the break-up of the block. The election of Macron already gave France a new footing in the European Union.
