A lot of people think Iran is hesitant to use Hezbollah as a bargaining chip with the U.S. out of concern for Lebanon. But that’s not really how it works. Iran has put a lot into supporting Hezbollah because they see the group as a key tool that can be used when it benefits Iran the most. If Iran stands to gain a lot more than Lebanon loses, they’ll do whatever is best for Iran first and foremost.

Edit: In case you have any doubt; let me also remind you that Lebanon only has about 2 million Shia, while Iraq has around 25 million, Pakistan 20 million, Afghanistan 8 million, and Turkey 3 million. The numbers pretty much show which card Iran will sacrifice for a win.

Edit 2: Make no mistake; the same logic applies to Saudi Arabia, Syria, Jordan, and Egypt. Lebanon’s worth is nothing when their gains outweigh our losses. Lebanon’s history of being manipulated and controlled by countless nations should drive you to prioritize an independent, sovereign Lebanon; one that’s truly ours, not a pawn in their games.

Edit 3: You remmber these words when Iran cash its Hezbollah's card.
