Has Iran Abandoned Lebanon? A Debate on Allies and War

Dr. Hassan. Of course, Hassan, Iran and its allies are viewed from outside

its system and strategic culture within this framework that is being discussed.

Basically, history and historical

developments tell us that the outcomes are determined by whoever paid the cost of

the confrontations.

Iran believes that its allies are its partners in blood, whereas the United

States views

its allies as proxies,

so it does not consult them about starting a war or about ending it. Iran has put

forward its ten- point paper, Lebanon and the allies. But in practice,

what happened? The shelling is still ongoing.

On the ground it is said that Iran has withdrawn from Lebanon and did not

provide support, Iran halted navigation, as if it is, as though it were in

a state of war.

The biggest pressure card it put on the table in the war against the United States

and its enemies,

today it is using it in support of Lebanon,

and I expect that it will use it even more. From the Iranian point of view,

an ally is not seen as a proxy to be left to be exterminated before his enemies,

this has never happened before,

point out to me an ally One that Iran has backed away from for the past 27 years.

Something happened, sir, when I was in Afghanistan…
