Geagea Defends Suleiman against Hizbullah's Attempts to 'Undermine' the State

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea defended President Michel Suleiman against Hizbullah's harsh rhetoric, saying the Lebanese are fed up with the party's practices, which contradict the authorities of the state institutions.

Geagea told al-Mustaqbal newspaper published on Monday that Suleiman “said what he had to say last Friday on our behalf.”

His remarks “reflect the viewpoint of the majority of the Lebanese who are fed up with Hizbullah's behavior and practices at the strategic, military, security, political and media levels,” the LF chief said.

“I salute him,” he added.

The tension between Suleiman and Hizbullah reached unprecedented levels over the weekend when the president said Lebanese parties should not hold onto inflexible equations that hinder the adoption of the new government's policy statement.

His remark at the Holy Spirit University of Kaslik drew a sharp retort from Hizbullah, which said the president needed “specialized care.”

Their dispute lies on the deadlock reached by the members of the committee tasked with drafting the policy statement on whether to include a clause on the resistance in the blueprint.

Geagea reiterated in his interview with al-Mustaqbal that Hizbullah considers the supreme leader of Iran as the head of the Lebanese state.

It believes that “our situation in Lebanon should be a copycat of Iran,” he said about the Shiite party.

“Hizbullah considered the president's move as a rebellion, that's why it had to make the crucial remarks against him,” he said.

Hizbullah does not recognize the legitimate Lebanese institutions and seeks to "undermine them when they try to practice their authorities," he added.

Asked whether a mysterious drone was still flying over his residence in Maarab, Geagea said: “The drone comes as part of practices that prevent free voices in this country.”

He did not confirm whether it was shut down as promised by LF MP Antoine Zahra.

Geagea said last month that he contacted Suleiman, Premier Tammam Salam, ex-Interior Minister Marwan Charbel and army chief Gen. Jean Qahwaji over the issue.

“We received guarantees that the appropriate measures have been taken to prevent it from flying over Maarab,” he said.

Zahra also said that the drone would not be allowed to fly over Maarab, because it would be shot down by Geagea's guards.

Geagea is very correct in describing hizb's behavior. We are all fed up with this fake resistance which is nothing but a sectarian militia with iranian agenda.

and the answer is: because hizbollah does not have a lebanese agenda but an iranian one.

Bashar Al Assad never shaked the hand of the zionists, unlike your FSA salafi brethren. How come if Assad isn't Israels enemy, that the Israeli PM shakes hands with his enemies in the FSA?

Your theories doesn't add up, if you could just admit that you are supporting Israel and their proxies the FSA Al Nusra etc.

That would be much easier for everyone, to follow whats going on in the region.

Thumb general_puppet 03 March 2014, 09:15

"Bashar Al Assad never shaked the hand of the zionists" that is because the Ayatollah never taught his dog Assad how to shake hands, he only taught the Assad clan how to roll over and play dead :-)

U know mystic, (sadely) the war in syria is not over yet, all the effort of assad to popular uprising into confessional war might have helped him scare the west but he is fucking up his country... I'm not trying to mark points here, i wont go in rethorics but i woulfd just suggest u to look at something else than SANA (and regional afiliates) sometimes just to see the all picture.. Assad is far from winning the war but is willing to put all his country in blood and fire to keep his regime, as if assad family was created by god to rule over syria, as if 4 decades were not enough...
Anyway now u hv free access to internet (they are struggeling to get access to facebook in iran) so take advantage of it, look to other sources/point of view, not telling u this so u change ur mind (obviously u wont) but at least see a widder picture (i watch syrian official news from now and then.. Well it seems they are living in another syria..)

When a Resistance fighter becomes matyred, he manages to take a bunch of takfiris with him. That is a honorable death, just the same as fighting Israelis, since we all know the Wahabis and Israelis works hand in hand inside Syria.

We have similar pictures with aoun shaking hand with israelly enemy in stavro's book for exemple (yes it was a protocol pic, blablablabla...)
And what is the difference between accepting takfiri sunits fighter presence (wich are rejected and fought against by fsa) and getting shiites fanatic soldiers (from lebanon, irak, iran..) anyway man i wish my country would find peace and democracy and that is coming from someone (like most of the guys on this site) who grew up in war, who was forced to move from a village to another, wake up.... Those syrian guys taking the street peacefully for months, hamza el khatib..

Mystic brother, trust me, as an undiluted LF fighter, when a Hezbollah fighter dies in the fight against Takfiris, he receives our salutes, our respects and honor, he returns back home as a hero. But brother, what truly pains me is the repeated fact that Hezbollah for each wining factor it provides, it matches it with ten losing factors, this is what puts people like me in a serious quandary. Right now, please, do not insult the president, do not demonize him, for a growing majority of the people respect him and hold him in high esteem. Also, do stop working against the state and its consitutional institutions. Stand by the state in all its embodiment, and the people will continue to stand by you in your cares.

Thumb Mystic 03 March 2014, 22:32

My friend phoenix, I will tell you what i told the rest. The Resistance will stay in Syria until the takfiris are done for, whatever the western news say about the conflict it isn't true, the syrian government has gained alot of ground these months, and the takfiris are slaughtering one another.

It wont end immediately, but the wind is blowing in our direction.

The Resistance will stay in Syria until their mission is accomplished, and that wont stop before the takfiri zionist threat is turned to ashes.

Mystic, believe me bro, I am with you on this one, but in all honesty I very much fear that this war in Syria is entering a design I've seen before, it won't be as simple as you wish, or as I wish. Me too, I'd want to see an early end to this war, with the defeat and demise of the Takfiris, I hate them as much as you do. But it won't be so simple, I feel that HA will be in Syria for years to come, and by then, it would have drained it down with an outcome so far no one can predict. Masalan, look at the events in Ukraine and why Putin is doing what he is now, don't you feel that this is additional pressure on Russia for its Syria policy? As I said, I have the experience of our civil war to feel bad about the Syrian war and for HA.

Hi Wolf, thanks for the kindness, give me a moment to take off the straigh-jacket you clothed me with. Ok, that's better. Now, your question is skin deep and nothing more, so I may have to answer in exactly the same depth and no further. My answer is a straight No. But if the matter was inferring to Geagea, even if I disagreed with him a lot, but then, if we want to label him a criminal, then that would make all the old oligarch class of wartime leaders no better than him, he was a militia leader and was doing what the rest were doing, to me that is as simple as it could be. Now in 2014, my ideal would be to see the back of him, just as much as I would dearly love to see the back of them all, M8 and M14 attached, this is why I keep saying, new generation, new generation, but is anyone listening? Today I agreed with what he said about the president and Hezbollah, but that that does not mean that I will drink bitter tea if it was offered to me. Stay blessed bro.

After all, nobody can deny his track record in defending the Christians, especially as he trampolined into the arms of his enemy-of-late-late-lateness, the Syrians. alla yer7amak ya bassel ya batal, the defender was heard murmuring when offering his condolences.
