Al-Daher Appeals for Support to ISF, Condemns Hizbullah for 'Terrorizing' Lebanese
Al-Mustaqbal MP Khaled al-Daher slammed on Thursday the critics of the Internal Security Forces Intelligence Branch, accusing them of serving the regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad to defend Iran's project in the region.
“The Lebanese should protect Lebanon by supporting the security forces,” he said at a press conference he held in the northern city of Tripoli.
He thanked the Intelligence Branch on its “tremendous efforts in arresting agents and spy networks, in addition to terrorist cells.”
Hizbullah should “withdraw from Syria and safeguard the blood of the Shiite sect,” he said.
“The so-called resistance's weapons are now terrorizing the Lebanese and collaborating with the Syrian regime through assassinations,” al-Daher added.
“Why are you pointing your finger at Takfiris in the bombings?” he wondered, addressing Hizbullah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, who last month declared that the takfiri movement had taken a decision to destroy Lebanon.
Nasrallah accused a takfiri group of being behind a deadly car bombing in Beirut's southern suburbs on Aug. 15, stressing that explosions in Hizbullah's stronghold and a series of attacks that targeted the party's convoys would not deter his support for Assad.
But al-Daher said: “Thanks to the Intelligence Branch we now know who the Takfiris and the terrorists are – the Syrian regime.”
He was referring to two consecutive bombings near mosques in the northern city of Tripoli last month. The attacks were allegedly ordered by a Syrian security officer.
“All personalities and associations receiving money from Syria and Iran have the ultimate goal of dealing with security issues and providing them with information on Lebanese officials,” al-Daher said.
The lawmaker urged politicians to “immediately form a cabinet based on the constitution.”
