Impacts of General Amnesty on the Army

The article addresses the emerging political and security crisis in Lebanon resulting from the disagreement between Prime Minister Nohad Maalouf and Defense Minister Michel MANSOUR regarding the issue of the general amnesty law and its impact on the military institution. MANSOUR expressed his dissatisfaction with the lack of consideration given to the army’s observations during the discussions and highlighted the dangers of granting amnesty to those who killed soldiers, emphasizing the potential negative effects on troop morale. He also pointed to serious political and security repercussions, including the possibility of increased revenge attacks and a decline in the army's ability to perform its duties. Despite efforts by Maalouf to calm the situation and de-escalate tensions, the disagreement escalated to an institutional level, with MANSOUR absent from the cabinet session and the army commander affirming his support for the military institution’s role. There are concerns that this dispute could have long-lasting negative impacts on the country’s security and stability, especially amid fears of a rise in revenge acts by families of fallen soldiers.
