Subject: Meanwhile, in Lebanon...
The WSJ notes that one party was conspicuously absent from the peace talks: Hezbollah.
It's been one of the saddest features of the Middle East that one of its most beautiful places has been partially occupied by a terrorist army funded by the Iranians and the Lebanese couldn't do anything about it.

...maybe until now:

The possibility of direct talks between the leaders of Israel and Lebanon as announced by President Trump on Thursday would mark a historic step for two neighboring states that have been technically at war for 78 years.

But the talks would leave one of the main belligerents on the sidelines: Hezbollah, the U.S.-designated terrorist group that has been at war with Israel off and on since the 1980s.

Maybe the Lebanese can work with the Israelis to clean those losers out now that their paymasters in Tehran have more pressing needs for what little cash they have left.
