Hezbollah-Israel war inflicts $25-30 billion in losses on Lebanon: Ex-minister

How much more in losses will Israel inflict when Hezbollah erupts again? [Rudaw] The recent war between Israel and Hezbollah has inflicted an estimated $25-30 billion in economic losses on Leb
...home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade....
, Beirut’s former economy minister said on Tuesday.
Amin Salam told Rudaw’s Hawar Abdulrazaq on the sidelines of the World Governments Summit in Dubai that field assessments indicate that Lebanon faces "somewhere between $25-30 billion worth of destruction and indirect negative effects on the economy."
The conflict between Hezbollah and Israel began on October 8, a day after the eruption of the war in Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response ...

The Hezbollah-Israel war intensified after Tel Aviv in mid-September carried out the "Pagers Operation," remotely detonating communication devices used by members of the Lebanese group, and later killed Hezbollah's secretary-general His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah

The war continued until November 27 when the two sides reached a ceasefire deal that was central to United Nations
...an organization which on balance has done more bad than good, with the good not done well and the bad done thoroughly...
Security Council resolution 1701, which requires the withdrawal of Israeli forces from Lebanon and the disarmament of all Lebanese gangs - including Hezbollah. However,
denial ain't just a river in Egypt...
Lebanon has repeatedly accused Israel of violating the ceasefire deal by continuing to launch sporadic strikes on Lebanese territories and maintain its forces in south Lebanon border villages.
Salam asserted to Rudaw Lebanon’s "main international commitment" to uphold UN resolution 1701 in the coming months, hoping that the war would end soon following "the complete withdrawal of Israeli forces" from southern Lebanon by February 18.
The ex-minister further highlighted that the Hezbollah-Israel war erupted at a time when Lebanon had already been grappling with the stifling economic crisis that began five years ago and saw Lebanon's real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) decline by more than 38 percent, according to the World Bank.
The Lebanese Presidency announced on Saturday the formation of a new government consisting of 24 ministers, following weeks of intensive consultations amid changes in the political balance of power after Hezbollah was weakened by the devastating war with Israel.
According to Salam, the newly-formed Lebanese government has "a major economic project and agenda" to implement. While Lebanon is receiving "a lot of international support" from its "allies and friends in Iraq, Saudi Arabia
 ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula, largely made up of sand and oil rigs. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual haj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. Formerly dictatorial and steeped in Olde Tyme Religion, deferring to Salafist holy men on all issues, it has now done a 180 and is making a serious effort to modernize, so as not to be left in the sand by its Gulf Arab neighbors. The holy men have been shoved to the background and the nation is now still dictatorial but somewhat rational. That doesn't make them trustworthy, but it's a start...

They piss it all away on religion, financing the Moslem Brotherhood and several al-Qaeda affiliates. Home of nutbag holy manYusuf al-Qaradawi...
, the United States and other European countries to get back on its feet," Beirut "has a lot of work it needs to do," Salam explained.
