Plus Karzai has the military might of the US, Britain, Canada ... etc ... behind him in Afghanistan. With the pull-out of Syria, the Lebanese are pretty much standing on their own. I haven't actually looked this up (so I might be wrong) but I'd imagine the Hez militia field a more powerfull fighting force than the official govt of Lebanon. Kinda leaves 'em between a rock and a hard place, no?
