Lebanese President General Michel Aoun’s speech at the UN made it clear that there was no difference between the Lebanese government positions and Hezbollah’s. He said that the Shebaa Farms and other lands on Israel’s side of the UN-drawn Blue Line is Lebanese, for example.
But his statement on UNRWA was notable. Aoun warned of the danger of curtailing UNRWA’s services to Palestinian refugees, saying that “this is causing more social and financial pressure on us” and it threatens to transform the Palestinian youth from “students of knowledge to students of vengeance.”
There is not a glimmer of guilt over how the Lebanese have been mistreating their Palestinian “guests” for seven decades.
And there is no outrage in the Arab world over an Arab leader assuming that Palestinian youth are inherently violent.
