Thank you and other distinguished members of the subcommittee for calling this hearing and drawing attention to Lebanon's security challenge...

My biggest fear, for all that we've accomplished in Lebanon, is that Hezbollah drags Lebanon and Israel into another war.

I think I worry that with the withdrawal--the apparent withdrawal of Saudi Arabia from Lebanon--I hope this is just a monetary thing.

I'd like to talk about the end of the Syrian conflict in light of the news reports just today, it's impossible right now to imagine.
