Lindsey Graham hails Israel-Lebanon deal as a 'giant step forward' for peace
Senator Lindsey Graham and Ambassador Mike Huckabee praise the US-mediated Israel-Lebanon agreement, hailing it as a historic victory despite ongoing threats from Hezbollah

The durability of this agreement will be tested by whether Hezbollah's capabilities are actually constrained on the ground.
