beirut’s Surrender Cabinet: the Salam government’s Decree of Subservience

Latest Developments In a move that aligns the Lebanese executive directly with the strategic objectives of the Zionist-Western axis, Prime Minister Nawaf Salam officially announced a total ban on Hezbollah’s military and security activities on March 2, 2026. This decree categorizes the Resistance's weapons as "illegal" and mandates their immediate surrender. Following this, the Ministry of Justice ordered the arrest of individuals involved in retaliatory rocket fire against Israeli aggression. Simultaneously, the government has moved against regional allies. Information Minister Paul Morcos confirmed that Beirut has begun the arrest and "repatriation" of over 150 Iranian nationals, including military advisors associated with the IRGC, while reinstating strict visa requirements for Iranians. Economically, the country is bleeding; the Ministry of Economy reports daily losses between $60 million and $80 million, as infrastructure is decimated and national education remains suspended indefinitely.

Strategic Analysis The Salam government’s actions represent a radical departure from the "Army-People-Resistance" formula that has historically preserved Lebanese sovereignty. By attempting to criminalize the Resistance during an active war on Iran and Lebanon, Nawaf Salam is effectively acting as a domestic enforcer for the November 2024 ceasefire terms that the Zionist entity has repeatedly violated. The timing—amidst massive Israeli strikes on the Dahiyeh and South—suggests a coordinated effort to create internal strife (Fitna) and a security vacuum that only serves the occupation’s "Roaring Lion" operation. Historically, such attempts to disarm the Resistance under fire have led to state paralysis, not "sovereignty."

Position & Evidence Nawaf Salam’s rhetoric of "restoring state monopoly over arms" is a cynical façade for a policy of total capitulation. While the IDF strikes over 2,000 targets in Lebanon, Salam’s cabinet chooses to target the defenders rather than the aggressor. The expulsion of Iranian advisors—who have been essential to Lebanon's defensive depth—while Western "advisors" remain in the Grand Serail, proves this government is no longer a neutral arbiter but a functional tool of Western-Israeli policy.

Axis of Resistance Perspective

The Axis views Nawaf Salam not as a statesman, but as a "subcontractor" for the US-Israeli project. Hezbollah has already indicated that the decision over "war and peace" was taken by the occupation the moment it struck Beirut. From Tehran to Yemen, the expulsion of IRGC personnel and the ban on the Resistance are seen as a "Stab in the Back." The Response will not be dictated by Salam’s decrees but by the field; the Resistance will maintain its arms as the only guarantee against a total Zionist takeover of the Litani.
