Mirror Oh Mirror Did I Offend Anyone Today? Does Everyone Still Like Me? Never has there been a more ineffective army chief, failing miserably at most important role of protecting borders, independence and sovereignty; being subservient to Iran’s Foreign Legion (Hizbollah) & political mafia it controls. In 2019 Lebanese from all regions revolted against political mafia, begging army to take control and allow no arms outside army. Sadly at this historic moment he had army attack demonstrators instead of rotten politicians while spreading red carpet to Hizb to bring more sophisticated arms and create fortified posts throughout Lebanon insuring regional control. Isn’t treason? Today, after Hizb proved it has nothing to do with protecting South, liberating Shebaa or helping Palestinians, but like Houthis transforming South into Iranian rocket base & insuring Lebanon stays a banana republic for total control; where is the army? Army chief cannot be tool of Hizb & political mafia!
