A former prime minister who led Israel out of Lebanon fears mistakes are being repeated

A former prime minister who led Israel's 2000 withdrawal from Lebanon warns the country is repeating past mistakes by maintaining an occupation of southern Lebanon. Israel now controls over 600 square kilometers of the region and has signed a framework agreement with Lebanon to remove Hezbollah weapons, but Hezbollah opposes the plan. Defense Minister Israel Katz asserts Israel has the right to remain in a 'security zone' until Hezbollah disarms.
