Therefore, we do not approve of the contents of this agreement, because it has proven, as we feared, that it does not include a timetable for withdrawal, and does not include anything binding on Israel. Israel is the party and the judge in it. It decides what suits it; if it sees that there is a danger that might come to it from some side, even at the level of intentions, it can confront it by carrying out operations on Lebanese territory. This is what is actually happening.
We refuse to go to an agreement like the one reached in the framework agreement. It does not secure any of Lebanon's rights, but makes it waive its right to sue a state before international law that aggresses against it and commits crimes against humanity and war crimes, and makes it waive its sovereignty and the extension of its authority by its own forces on its land, if this matter is necessary for the Israeli side.

We must analyze every signal and study it in depth
We all wanted to believe that we won the "Guardian of the Walls" battle, and the more spending on this victory increased, the more we clung to the idea of victory
Removing illegal weapons, combating terrorism, and pursuing all those outside the law is an irreversible path, and it will accelerate. The investigation related to the seized explosives, and everything branching from it, will be pursued to the end.
The citizen can no longer bear more partial solutions and deferred promises.
There is no value in a decision to pay without specifying how to pay and when.
dangerous and inflaming hostility
In politics, nothing happens by accident. If it happens, you can bet it was planned that way.
Whom do we believe? Who bears responsibility for displacing students to other schools? Who is responsible for this chaos at the start of the school year? And how will this school's student body be repaired after this disruption?
Who is misleading the minister? And who stands behind her decisions based on false data? And will the minister hold accountable whoever is responsible for this misleading?
A state whose political life has not yet reached half a century is making claims from the UN podium about islands recorded as Iranian in historical documents and maps dating back centuries
Just as hosting American military bases did not bring you security, hosting the 'butcher of Gaza' will not have praiseworthy consequences either
Israel's use of regional countries' territory to target Iran could lead to extremely dangerous consequences
Disarming illegal weapons, combating terrorism, and pursuing all outlaws is an irreversible path, and it will accelerate. The investigation related to the seized explosives, and everything branching from it, will be completed to the end
