مجموعة الدعم الدولية تدعو لإلتزام الجميع بإعلان بعبدا وسليمان يشدد على ضرورة دعم الجيش "بتطبيق الاستراتيجية الدفاعية"

They offered weapons ya bum, what are you complaining about? Unlike Saudis they can make their own. And what did you expect? That they throw money in Suleiman's face so he can go beg France to sell us some junk? Iranians might not have the same tech and fancy toys, but at least they would give us the best they have, not outdated and neutered stuff. Nothing in the deal with France can be used to defend against Israel.

Hello anonymetexasusa
Good to see you again. I see nothing has changed here you are still dealing with guys who deform the truth...
Keep correcting them my friend

(1). Roar ya Roar, why do you keep being so hard on Suleiman? Aoun and the FPM, if it came to them alone, will be the keepers of the Holy Bible, the Holy Torab and the Holy Koran. Yes, I respect your firm adherence to man and party, but it doesn't mean that you can enjoy a field day going above the norm of criticism. Everyone at the beginning wanted Suleiman, but when you guys and Hezbollah started pushing your limits, and time after time without realizing your limits, the president of all the Lebanese had to cut it straight with you. Now what is adding salt to your injuries is the fact that Aoun will never see that much coveted seat.

(2). Hezbollah is particularly sore about this, because their final hope for a ready-made-rubber-stamper-dream will not happen, maybe even worse, Suleiman may see his term extended (heads rolling already). Neither Aoun, nor Hezbollah, nor their respective partisans can tolerate a leader who snubs them on the nose, a leader who can say NO, that is what is sitting so badly with you and the rest at HA and FPM co.

hahahahah nice story anonyme, expect for one little detail: it all BS! Iran offered advanced weapons, including air defense systems that in your wildest dreams neither Saudi nor France would ever give or sell us.
Don't you find it weird that israel freaked out when Iran proposed help, and got all their lobbyists on the case (http://www.haaretz.com/news/diplomacy-defense/iran-offers-to-support-lebanese-army-if-u-s-withholds-military-aid-1.307192) whereas now they haven't even peeped? they know from the get-go that they have nothing to worry about on this deal.

the president was initially supposed to be neutral. one trip to saudi and now he speaks like a hardcore m14er. the president of the republic cannot be partisan like this, he is supposed to unite, not divide. the only reason why m14 want to beatify him is because he's telling them everything they want to hear, and more.

it's sad how hard you try to find pretexts, going as far as depicting the army as a mosaic of sectarian clans, to find an excuse not to accept Iran's help.

No ya Mowaten, no habibi my brother, the president was supposed to be neutral and he remains neutral. It is that very neutrality i.e, not bowing to M8's pressures and wishes that have earned him the wrath of M8, led by Hezbollah itself. You know brother, people like me knew that this would come to a head one day or the other and why? Because with Hezbollah shoving its way forward, irrespective of if there is a government, or a presidency or a constitution, HA just does what it wants, but it got used to that, and today we are witnessing a president who can say a flat NO to Hezbollah. Maybe if I was alone in this sentiment, one could say I was wrong, but more than half of Lebanon's population cannot be wrong so simultaneously.

you're going nowhere with that anonyme. HA is lebanese, whether you like it or not. and if ever you want to call them iranians because they had support from iran, then you would have to say m14 are saudis. can't have it both ways.

hezbollah are lebanese... LOL just like lahd's army was lebanese! LOL

Sleiman and the LAF getting support in Lebanon and abroad, that means the rat will soon get out of his sewer and make us a speech...

Defence strategy?

Will that include the armed group?

Or will the armed group hand in their weapons.

Since there will be a well equipped & trained LAF in Lebanon. Do we really need an armed group to defend Lebanon any more?

Bigjohn

If the armed group integrates into the LAF the weapons will still be in use & ready.

Why does it seem that some people here are trying to degrade the national defence force.

Give them what the group has it will be just as strong or even stronger. An united army is way stronger than a fragmented one.

the saying goes "actions speak louder than words" we can debate whether HA is lebanese iranian or jewish all we want and disagree for 100 years. you need only look at their actions to find the answer.Simple.first it was a resistance against israeli occupation..done. next to liberate palestine..that got too hard. then the sheeba farms..once again too hard. then resistance fighting in syria to protect "our strategic ally"because they are beyond reproach and choose their own path. then resistance against the terrorists that threaten lebanon ,not acknowledging that these filthy terrorist publicly announced they have no qualms with lebanon but will strike back at "specifically" HA if they do not withdraw from Syria. so when they do HA feeds us their BS that these terrorists are invading lebanon to justify their involvemnet in syria.you make up your own minds here..

lol anonyme, you're peddling in all directions to avoid facing facts. whether or not it is a militia has nothing to do with nationality. if m14 does not officially have a militia, but rather are hypocrite and rely on groups they finance and support indirectly, it does not maek them more lebanese.
rafic hariri was a saudi product, he came here with their billions and started taking over the country. his saudi-born son inherited his throne and lives now on king abdullah's lap, sending tweets to his goons here to tell them the sugga daddy's latest fantasies. they cant name a prime minister without him going to saudi to get the king blessing... you call that lebanese? sovereign? wleik zahheit you make a feel ashamed to be lebanese if that's what being lebanese is.
i'd rather be proud of a resistance that fears no one and obeys only values and moral principles.
