Aoun: ISF are an Armed Gang that Work against the Laws
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Free Patriotic Movement leader MP Michel Aoun slammed on Tuesday the Internal Security Forces, describing them as an armed gang.
He said after the Change and Reform bloc’s weekly meeting: “If only it were a militia because it is an armed gang that is working against the laws.”
On Minister of the Displaced Akram Chehayeb’s statements on state appointments, he noted: “They are waging a preemptive war against us and others.”
According to media reports, the minister had said: “A certain faction among the Lebanese is seeking to hoard all the appointments and shape administrative and electoral issues to its liking in order to eliminate another political camp and assume power.”
Addressing the dispute between Change and Reform bloc MP Nabil Nicola and Interior Minister Marwan Charbel, Aoun remarked: “This is an individual incident, but it may affect our ties with the minister.”
“Why should the MP be blamed? Is it because he labeled the ISF as a militia?” he wondered.
“They are an armed gang working against the laws,” he noted.
“If only they were a militia, because a militia liberates land, but the world has wronged militias,” Aoun said.
“Militias have a national goal to confront an occupier,” he stressed.
Nicola had told al-Jadeed television on Tuesday that Charbel “is ignorant of Lebanese laws.”
“I had hoped that the interior minister would have been more aware of the laws,” he added.
Furthermore, he urged him to “perform his duties in protecting the citizens and implement the laws.”
On the investigations with retired Brigadier General Fayez Karam, Aoun said: “We have spoken of flaws in the investigation and we have concluded that there is no evidence.”
“They have spoken of recordings but we have not been shown anything,” he added.
“They are pressuring the judiciary and violating its jurisdiction,” stressed the FPM leader.
Addressing former Premier Fouad Saniora’s comments on the Appeals Court’s approval to review the verdict in Karam’s case, Aoun said: “Saniora is not being accused, but he is being condemned.”
The ex-PM had recently voiced fears that the acceptance of the appeal is a precursor to politicizing Karam’s case, noting that this would harm the credibility of the judiciary.
Addressing the call to resume national dialogue, Aoun said: “We have spent years discussing Hizbullah’s arms. This is not a real issue.”
“I have presented a defense strategy. Let them study it and present their own,” he added.
“The greatest mistake lies in saying that the decision of war and peace lies in the hands of Hizbullah, whereas Israel holds this power,” he noted.

MP Aoun: Are Hizbullah’s arms aimed at free or occupied land? Principles need to be adopted in devising a defense strategy. Are they abiding by the laws of dialogue?

..... you do that by telling them the ISF is a gang?????? Is that how you build and support state institutions? Is that the proper way to address reform.? If the ISF leadership is not part of your political camp, that does not make them a gang. For heavens sake, you are asking people to disobey the law....... Shame on you. You have achieved yet another low........

This guy is a jerk, what? are you now going to wage war on ISF while ignoring hizbelkizb real status? relieve your master from some pressure? Your mind is warped, the angle you see the world is grossly misguided and couldn't any further from the truth. You need help, or loads of pills. A career change is definitely recommended, try goat herding or coin collecting..

Aoun defends the real armed gang called Hizballah and calls the ISF an "Armed Gang". Aoun is now a "small soldier" in Hizballah's armed gang. He graduated from eing a "small soldier" in Hafez Al-Assad's (as he noted in a letter to Hafez in the 80's)

Still playing semantical games, making distinctions where there is no difference. Now he calls his own ISF and its his, because it is his governmend his parliament, he calls them an "armed gang".
Well, this statement may be true since an armed gang, Hezbollah, is what is controlling Lebanon currently, c/o Mr. Aoun. This being the case, the organized armed forces that operate under the aegis of an armed gang can be nothing but an armed gang.

in other words: you can disobey and resist the ISF... meaning disobey the laws of lebanon as long as they are not MY laws!
