IIRC there are more than one militia in Lebanon, correct?
Hopefully, they kill every last POS ISIS individual they see.

I'm currently here and they aren't mobile, they stay in their strongholds and control their territory unless they've got "business" somewhere else.
They make their own checkpoints in their territory and I actually drove past one a few hours ago. They don't hassle you or question you whatsoever unless you look very suspicious. They always need to be wary of suicide bombers.
Lebanese army still controls the country but Hezbullah is too powerful to control since they're backed by Iran. Also the Lebanese army can't openly work with Hezbullah because the U.S would cut their military funding. But the U.S knows they need Hezbullah right now so they're turning a blind eye.
When the battle started about a week ago they would question people more often but since they've pretty much destroyed ISIS in the past week it has eased up again. ISIS likely still has small hidden cells in Lebanon but they are pretty much non existent because of the mission this past week. They got trapped from all sides and had no where to run.
