Lebanon will survive. The country has fought similar wars for 200 years, against the French, the Israelis, the Americans etc

[@itnotallaboutyou]

That is all Lebanon can do to survive. I am not envious of the Lebanese people . Lebanese people don’t want to survive, they want to live. You can survive on 2 eggs and 1 potato for a few months. I am sure you don’t want that.

[@geopoliticaltrends]

There is a history there, for sure!!

[@taharka3897]

​@geopoliticaltrends I agree with the majority of your videos, and I contributed to your platform, but this one got me confused. You said nothing about what would happen to the other country. What about our economy here in the west. Do you really think an all out war wouldn't happen. Are you sure other countries wouldn't defend Lebanon. Are you sure Lebanon can be defeated. I am sorry what you just said make no sense.

[@reubenmcmurray4377]

Lebanon was founded in 1943. The country is less than a century old.

[@sdsfgsty]

Yes. Lebanon will survive. For Afghanistan, all the disasters have already been said and done long ago. But with the freedom, you can move towards prosperity slowly and surely.

[@hengng4414]

Can Lebanon survive 2024? My perspectives Dr Oualaalou. Yes. The Lebanese, Jews, Indians and Chinese diasporas have deep pockets and settled communities. As a sovereign nation, these four tiny diasporas will feature inside the top ten economies of the world. Some of my business partners are Lebanese and Indians, and I do know the communities. Lebanon is going through some hard times this year, but they will overcome, persevere and ride the storms. Tough community. And Lebanese have a successful diaspora around the world. ❤

Israel is given full financial support from the US. Also, Israel will gain large parts of land from war victory prize. Read about Ben Gurion canal also and worldwide Jewish billionaires. Coastal parts of Lebanon will be purchased by Blackrock/Blackstone for pennies on the dollar just like Ukraine and all profits will go to Jewish bankers

They can work on hesbilah. I saw many people in the Middle East celebrating the fact that the leader had been taken out. It’s up to them now to rid hesbilah if that’s what they want. They don’t need to have an all out war.

How unfortunate I believe Lebanons currency is pegged to the dollar.

[@chinathesideyoudontsee8157]

Lebanon like all War torn countries have a resilience to the sorts of issues you raised as they are familiar. I also feel in the new merging multi-polar world they will get some assistance they may have not received in the past to move forward. More to the point if the Nation is pushed to the point of despair they would having nothing to lose by declaring War against those wishing them harm and joining the fight with Hezbollah which would all but seal Israel's fate as they are already in financial crisis and a War would create a mass exodus plus all the facts you mentioned that Lebanon would suffer.

[@goldmo2427]

Can China help Lebanon .. apparently the west said they would help if Hezbollah stops which tells you a lot

[@charlesyang4923]

Social and political instability always accompanied by economy decline, and war exacerbates it further down to recession or hyperinflation. When it comes to the crunch time (for survival), Lebanese will stand up and fight though its economy is going to suffer a lot harder this time as compared to war with Israel 2006, except the non-western financial and humanitarian support to Lebanon will be much stronger and sufficiently abundant this time too. The bottom line is It’s going to be a war of attrition amongst human resource, economy resilience and military firepower for both Hezbollah and Israel, and I doubt Israel can survive 3 months after marching into Lebanon where Hezbollah had years of preparation and fortification, needless to say if a prolong war last for years.

[@stefanhunter1459]

[@stefanhunter1459]

[@Jonnyguywrestle]

@@stefanhunter1459 because Israel has a lot of power. And Israel seeks no compromise and peace.

The US & Israel have a problem with truth…rather then just being honest about their prejudice. They would swallow their tongue to admit fault….

[@ankhmaathotep7913]

Dr. O, what must Lebanon do?

[@geopoliticaltrends]

Lebanon is caught between a rock & hard place! It'll be a major challenge if Lebanon, as a country, decides to fight Israel. It does not have the capabilities to take on Israel unilaterally unless outside support is provided...

[@farsheedyas697]

Syria was in a similar situation but survived at heavy cost. They (Syria, Iran & Russia), managed to defeat the US proxies (Israel, the NATO, Saudi, UAE, Qatar, ISIS), but their country is devastated. Lebanon will prevail. @@geopoliticaltrends

better than the arabs switching sides.. look, MBS wants a palestinian state.. that is a "lock".. it is good enough to keep them on the side of the global left.. the US wanted to remove him because of this lock you know? though it's nothing compared to the sacrifices made by the frontliners.. but good enough to gain the upperhand on the entire battlemap.. now, the global left should wait for the BRICS summit.. then the US will throw israel under the bus like they did with ukraine and focuses on china..

So, sit around and do nothing? Seems to be working out real well the last few decades huh? 🙄 I will never understand the masochism of your societies.

[@Adnancorner]

Yea trust and do nothing. Good advice. Accepting those demons as "people of the book" fantastic. This is the reason why the Islamic world is in condition of what it is today. They hired agents from central asia to write fake hadiths to muddy the information waters of Islamic world and then you turn around and keep "trusting" and "waiting"... what a joke. The foreigners come and rule + plunder typical. Keep "trusting" and do nothing. Name one country in Islamic world that is an actual economic and financial power ? name one. and NO dont tell me its Saudi Arabia. Sorry its not a financial and economic power because MBS want diversify. Super powers do not need diversification.

[@TedForbes-j4i]

All these economic strains will happen to the people of Lebanon if they continue fighting on. If the people of Lebanon stop fighting, they will end up with crumbs anyway, because the West will control it all. What's the difference? What the US is doing to Lebanon, is what it has already done with many other countries. So, either we all go on resisting, and survive their swords, or surrender, and live by their mercy. Keep resisting Lebanon, together, the world must keep fighting back, no matter what.

[@nicholasfarinha1431]

One sided commentary...this is your own truth...

[@farsheedyas697]

I'm surprised that David is continuosly downgradeing the Lebanon but forget that Israel economy is also in a bad shape. Israel is badly insulated across the world. Many Israelis have fled Israel & many investors and companies have left Israel too. Therefore, Israel is not doing great either. In my view, Lebanese have nothing to lose but a lot to gain because their economy was in a bad shape before 8th Oct. However, Hezbollah has reported many times that they would stop, if Israel accept ceasefire in Gaza & West bank. Obviously, the war is very costly & Lebanon is not resource rich but other countries are financially & militarily supporting Hezbollah. I feel, Israel economy is badly effected by this war & Israel must be worried that all those IDF have to go back to their jobs soon. Otherwise, Israel apartheid will become like the former South Africa😜.

[@parthppopat]
