I mean, they're probably the size, some of these places are the size of my table. So this is part of the outstanding issues. There are also the five positions that the Israelis have retained in South Lebanon that after the February 18th extended withdrawal date for the Israeli forces after the recent war between Israel and Hezbollah. So, these are the issues that are about to be deleted.

Now, there's talk of normalization or that this will be a platform for normalization, at least unnamed sources close to the prime minister's bureau in Israel. According to Channel 12 News, Israeli Channel 12 News has said that this will be a platform for normalization. There's been no confirmation or official denial from the Lebanese side.

Al Mayadeen, which is a pro-Hezbollah outlet and which has an interest in denying such things, again, based on unnamed sources, said that this is absolutely false, that these committees would be dealing with technical issues alone rather than with more substantive issues like normalization. To me, again, even though I'm skeptical of anything that comes out of a Mayadeen,

Again, they don't have an interest in Israeli-Lebanese normalization moving forward for obvious reasons. It would really put Hezbollah in more of a corner than it is now. But all this talk reminds me of the lead up to the October 2022 maritime border negotiations between Israel and Lebanon, where because of an off-the-cuff remark by former President Michelin, no relation to the current president,

There was all this talk that this would be the stepping stone to including Lebanon in the Abraham Accords. Then the Lebanese denied it. And as we saw, this was really just a resolution of technical matters.

Now, Israel, as far as we know, according to the Israelis, destroyed something like 80% of Hezbollah's strategic arsenal, built something like 30% of Hezbollah's fighting force, assassinated its top military leadership, a lot of its top political leadership. The organization is significantly degraded. To deny that would be to deny fact. At the same time, and here's the but,
