Prime Minister Saad Hariri on Thursday announced that the Lebanese will witness a "huge effort" by the government in the coming days that is aimed at “protecting Lebanon from the storm that it is going through.”

“We are passing through difficult days, especially at the economic level,” Hariri said during a ceremony to honor pilgrims at the Mohammed al-Amin Mosque in central Beirut.

“We are hearing a lot of theories, but the truth is that the work method in the country must change and we should be honest with people,” the premier added.

“The problem these days is that some want to decide on behalf of all citizens, but everyone has rights, and we will hold accountable those who encroach on our rights,” Hariri went on to say.

Could you imagine what Lebanon's economy would look like nowadays if only they would have implemented the peace treaty with Israel prepared in 1982. There would have been enough electricity, trade, and now even more recently the excavation and export of the natural gas found in the Med. There would have been no armed terrorist groups, allowing all the Hizballah occupied territory to be developed by both agricultre and industry.
Ah well, wishful thinking.
