Paywalled unfortunately so can't read it.

No it's not. For me anyway. Wait for the cookie stuff - ok then click the down arrow on the subscription link.

Fair view really but in one case Benj does have an end game - no 2nd state.

Lebanon - posturing concerning a ground invasion. There has been a lot of rubble created in the south. Looks to be up to the infamous river. Seems to me that Lebanon could hit back from the other side of that but not sure.

Maybe he'll have a 'road to Damascus' moment and change his mind.

Lebanese army or Hezbollah, I'm not sure the two should be conflated.

Hezbollah

They say they want those to move back to the other side of the river.

It looks like a return of the pre hamas set up to me with additional Israeli territory taken in the west bank. He may be assuming he has to give way so grab as much as possible for his negotiating position. He also sees it as a method of never achieving the other state,

Ceasefire calls now just mean carry on. They always will unless the Sec Council does something or one side is totally defeated - difficult to achieve as it may well breed more.

Never letting any arms into the likely setup? Better keep and eye on a number of substances.
