Lebanese Activist Eli Khoury calls for 'De-Resistance-ation' in Lebanon, Like Post WWII Denazification in Germany: Hizbullah's Ideology Needs to Be Removed from People's Minds
In a May 27, 2025 interview on Spot Shot on YouTube, Lebanese activist and social media expert Eli Khoury compared the situation of Hizbullah to that of the Nazi Party in Germany. He said that after Nazism was shown to be deadly and harmful to society, it became necessary to engage in 'denazification' - the removal of the ideology from people's minds. He suggested that a similar process should be undertaken with Hizbullah. Khoury argued that Hizbullah's ideology is not native to Lebanon, but rather imported from a country he does not consider important. He proposed calling the process 'de-resistance-ation.'

Iraq offers support for Lebanese Investors and Workers
By John Lee. Iraq's Minister of Labour and Social Affairs, Mr Ahmed Al-Asadi, has confirmed his country's readiness to provide all possible facilitation for Lebanese workers in Iraq, provided that they comply with legal procedures designed to ensure their rights and protection. The remarks were made during a meeting with Lebanon's Minister of Labour, Dr Mohammad Bahjat Haidar, on the sidelines of the 113th session of the International Labour Conference in Geneva. The two ministers discussed ways to enhance bilateral cooperation, particularly in investment and encouraging Lebanese business owners to return to invest in Lebanon. Mr Al-Asadi acknowledged the impact of Lebanon's economic crisis on capital flows, especially in light of past failures in the banking sector. However, he affirmed Iraq's commitment to supporting Lebanon's economic recovery by encouraging Iraqi investors to explore opportunities there. He described investment as fundamental to national development, noting that Iraq has seen significant investment-driven growth over the past two to three years. On the subject of foreign and Arab workers in Iraq, Al-Asadi highlighted concerns about the large number of workers entering the country illegally. He stated that Iraq's Council of Ministers has issued a decision to regularise the status of such workers, enabling them to obtain residency and register with the Ministry of Labour. This step ensures their eligibility for legal wages, social security registration, and broader labour rights. The Minister reiterated Iraq's openness to Lebanese labour, stressing the importance of legal registration as a guarantee for protection and rights. (Source: Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs)
