Lebanon Pre-Election analysis

On the Fifteenth of this month Lebanese voters will elect a new Parliament. The one hundred twenty eight seats are allocated along confessional and geographical lines, with no party ever getting a majority and the government thus always based on complex coalitions. Lebanon is in pernanent crisis, economically and socially. Its ruling elite is corrupt. There are no independent security agenda and foreign policy, because of Hezbollah’s influence and therefore the competing interests of Iran, Israel and Saudi Arabia.

Guests Brigadier General (Res) Jacques Neriah, Former senior official IDF Intelligence Directorate & late Premier Yitzhak Rabin, Dr. Nir Boms, Research fellow, Moshe Dayan center at Tel Aviv University, and Col. (Res.) Reuven Ben-Shalom, TV7 Powers-in-Play Panelist, Cross-Cultural Strategist and Associate at ICT, Reichman University. Host Amir Oren.
