...The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years. It produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. That's three statements. Only the first is subjective....
rejects Israel’s latest threats while stressing that the country is keen on the resumption of talks over sea border demarcation.

"We reject the threats of the Israeli enemy, which is acting in violation of international laws and resolutions," Aoun said, in a meeting in Baabda with reformist MPs Melhem Khalaf, Ibrahim Mneimneh, Rami Fanj, Mark Daou, Waddah al-Sadek, Yassine Yassine and Najat Aoun.

"Lebanon is keen on the return of indirect negotiations with Israel, which stopped after the enemy refused to consider Line 29 a negotiations line," the President added.

Noting that Lebanon had rejected "the Israeli line, or Line 1, and the Hoff Line," Aoun emphasized that the country "will not renounce its right to utilize its oil and gas resources."

"The President is leading the negotiations, and after an agreement is reached, Cabinet will have to approve it and refer it to parliament according to norms, which has not yet happened as to Line 29," Aoun went on to say.

Explaining why drilling has stopped in Lebanon’s offshore block 4, the President said the drilling company "offered unconvincing justifications," noting that "it faced international pressures that forced it to stop drilling."

Responding to a question from the delegation, Aoun pointed out that there is no link between border demarcation and the issue of importing gas and electricity from Egypt and Jordan, nor with the negotiations with the International Monetary Fund."
