Unpacking Hezbollah: A U.S. Strategy to Navigate Lebanon’s Fragmentation
In 2025, Lebanese President Joseph Aoun called for Hezbollah’s disarmament to enhance state sovereignty and security, yet this move risks increasing Western and Israeli influence in Lebanon. The country faces severe crises, including Israeli aggression and internal instability, making disarmament perilous. Hezbollah’s role as a deterrent, established since its 2006 victory over Israel, is crucial for national security. Historical precedents from Iraq and Libya warn against disarmament leading to chaos and foreign intervention. The Lebanese army, lacking resources and affected by sectarian divides, cannot replace Hezbollah’s role, complicating the disarmament initiative, which could threaten Lebanon’s stability and sovereignty.
