Today, Israeli forces captured one of the most iconic military positions in southern Lebanon: Beaufort Castle.
For nearly 900 years, this fortress has dominated the high ground overlooking the Galilee in Israel and southern Lebanon. Crusaders held it. Mamluks fought for it. The PLO used the surrounding area as a base for attacks on Israel. Later, Hezbollah transformed the region into a key part of its terrorist infrastructure.
In this episode, Avi Kaner explores:
• The fascinating history of Beaufort Castle
• Why the fortress has been strategically important for centuries
• The bloody 1982 battle that brought it under Israeli control
• How Hezbollah built a military network throughout southern Lebanon after Israel's 2000 withdrawal
• The failure of UN Resolution 1701 to prevent Hezbollah's rearmament
• Why many Lebanese today are seeking to restore their country's sovereignty
• France's call for an emergency UN Security Council meeting and why it is misplaced outrage
• The larger battle over who truly controls Lebanon: Beirut or Tehran
A story about history, strategy, sovereignty, and one fortress that has stood at the center of Middle Eastern conflict for nearly a millennium.
