The Lebanese public's skepticism towards Israel's adherence to the ceasefire agreement is a symptom of a deeper issue - the lack of trust built over decades of conflict and occupation. This mistrust is further exacerbated by the asymmetry in power dynamics between the two nations, with Israel's military superiority and historical aggression contributing to the perception of a fragile peace. The international community's role in facilitating the agreement is also crucial, as their involvement can either reinforce or undermine the fragile peace.
