Geagea says Nasrallah will 'lie a little' in Friday's speech, slams pre-speech videos

Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea rejected anew the choice of war on the eve of a speech by Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah on the Israel-Hamas war.

"War does not lead to any actual result," Geagea told LBCI. "We need a real solution to the Palestinian cause." He added that the Axis of Resistance has done nothing that served the cause. "It's not about speeches, but rather about giving the Palestinians their rights back," he said.

Geagea said about Nasrallah's long-awaited speech that the decision is not in Nasrallah's hands but in the hands of Iran.

"He will lie a little," Geagea charged, adding that it would have been better if Nasrallah "spent his time on something serious and left the south to the Lebanese army and the UNIFIL."

"Propaganda videos are not nice at a time when hundreds are dying in Gaza every day," he said.

Hezbollah had earlier made a buzz on social media by posting two videos. The first showed Nasrallah passing in front of a Hezbollah flag without looking at the camera. The second showed him preparing his speech.
