This is so delusional and r-slurred it makes John Bolton look like a stable genius in comparison: Now that Nasrallah is dead, a president will be elected and it will solve everything.
The only times that Lebanon has barely functioned as a state is when there was consensus among the Christians, Shi'a, Sunnis, and Druze.
There's only been a few guys stupid enough to think they could "win" and dominate the whole country. They got killed once they seemed to be anywhere near to achieving that.
It's kind of hard to build up a functioning bureaucracy while everyone is cowering in bomb shelters.
People don't like to cooperate with American plans while American bombs are landing on them.
The President of Lebanon has never had the power to fix the country's real problems. In fact the constitution is set up to make sure they can't. You're going to have to keep dealing with Nabih Berri.
They desperately need lots of money. Nobody is going to lend money to them while they're getting bombed and everything will just get immediately destroyed.
I cannot emphasize this enough: Syria and Hezbollah are still capable of killing anyone in Beirut they want to. They may feel entitled to carry out assassinations given what has happened lately.
The only thing I'm wondering is if this is male autism like the "Whiz Kids" of the Vietnam War or vapid female r-sluration where midwit women from rich east coast families have been promoted up through academia and think that means they actually know what the frick they're talking about.
There's a lot of people making decisions about this stuff who apparently have no idea that exactly what they're planning to do has been tried before and it didn't work. Or maybe they know and they just don't give a shit because it's never hurt the job prospects of neocons or R2P tards that they totally failed at everything and just ended up killing lots of people.

Would being ruled by some foreign power (not Syria or France) fix Lebanon?

I don't think so. Things are so fricking complicated there, I don't think any foreign power could manage it. I mean the Syrians managed it but they did it through lots of car bombs and torture and stuff. And I don't even think that's entirely because they wanted to do it that way. I think it's because that honestly was the only way they could figure out how to deal with the situation.
Maybe if somehow everyone could get to together to pressure the government into working it would help. But you got the problem that they're next to Syria and Israel and both of them really would have to agree to cooperate in enforcing some kind of peace.
