Ibrahim: Saboteurs Should Be Halted from Achieving Goals

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

The new Director-General of the General Security Department Abbas Ibrahim hoped that he’s up to the tasks he’s been assigned to, “because it’s the time to work and cooperate with different parties.”

“Lebanon needs all its citizens, and efforts should be exerted to halt saboteurs from achieving their goals,” Ibrahim told al-Liwaa newspaper on Tuesday.

The director-general said that naming him was due to Interior Minister Marwan Charbel’s recommendation after they met on Friday.

Meanwhile, Ibrahim’s visitors told As Safir that his priority is to “serve the people through the General Security, provide political stability, and preserve citizen’s security.”

“The deepening political divide requires us to be more responsible in confronting Israeli danger and terrorism,” they said.

Concerning the March 14-led opposition’s stances from his appointment, Ibrahim said: “Everything said about me is baseless and I am open to everyone.”

The cabinet appointed on Monday deputy military intelligence chief Brig.-Gen. Ibrahim as the new director-general of the General Security Department.

Ibrahim was also promoted to the rank of Major General.

makes me laugh when he says "The director-general said that naming him was due to Interior Minister Marwan Charbel’s recommendation after they met on Friday."

This guy was imposed on the country even before the cabinet was formed. His name was being circulated long time ago. Charbel did not even know the guy.

here is what was said a few days ago "The newspaper quoted a ministerial source as saying: “Appointing Ibrahim as the director-general was agreed upon in the last session but was postponed so that Interior Minister Marwan Charbel meets him, the thing that happened on Saturday.”

So far he sounds very much like Assad, believing all opposition are Israeli agents. The hizbollafication of Lebanon has started and he can be a useful tool. What is his commitment to freedom of opinion and peaceful opposition enshrined in our constitution? If he is incapable of clearly answering this question he should resign immediately. Let no one have any illusion. The road to freedom will be very difficult. Miqati’s Syrian/Basij cabinet will use all state power to brutally suppress freedom like in Syria and Iran. Miqati is just a dummy and another Useful Idiot like Aoun and Jumblat. Hopefully Lebanese will have the same courage as the Syrian people to sacrifice for freedom when they finally realize what is happening and who has taken our country hostage.

Development and Liberation bloc MP Yassine Jaber: We support hiring competent individuals to positions in state as these posts cannot be monopolized by a certain sect.

So why are you monopolizing the position of Director of General security for the shiites? your logic is" what is ours is ours and what is yours is yours and ours".

Imposters are back posting under Gebran Sons name! But readers cannot be fooled. They are already dealing with an entire cabinet of imposters, pretending to care for Lebanon, while they have sold Lebanon for 30 pieces of silver to the tyrants in Damascus and Tehran for personal benefits and obsessions be it establishing Wilayat Al Faqih or becoming president at any cost including destroying the country, bankrupting its citizens, forcing many to emigrate, and sacrificing freedom and democracy.

Well done Major! How about if saboteurs are in office? How about is saboteurs are killing citizens and politicians alike to reach power? How about if saboteurs are ruining pepole' s trade and lives ? How about if saboteurs are holding hostage a whole country to wash away the crimes they commited? How about when they' re the ones appointing the new civil servants? How about all that ?

CITIZEN and GEBRAN
Thank you for your comments. You took the words out of my mouth. I fully agree with you. All I can say is Good Help Lebanon!! Hizbullah through their stupid puppets are effectively taking legal control of Lebanon. I can only hope that the Brave Syrian people will topple their criminal President and that the STL acts in full gear so we can witness a gradual weakening of Iranian puppets in Lebanon. As for Mikati, Aoun and Jumblatt shame on you !! We lebanese shall remember
