Berri: We have not been defeated

W460

Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri has reportedly said that Israel is acting “as if we have lost the war, but we have not been defeated.”

“Fighting is ongoing on the battlefield and Israel is incurring losses,” sources quoted Berri as saying in remarks to Al-Arabiya television.

“Berri has pledged to implement what was agreed on with U.S. envoy Amos Hochstein, without any addition,” the sources said.

Moreover, the sources said that the Berri has not received any phone call regarding a new visit by Hochstein to Beirut.

Berri has been wrong about this since the day he was born. 106 years ago today, 11 November 1918, the West officially defeated the Ottomans in World War I.

Lebanon -- in all its freedoms, aspirations, and opportunities for a good and peaceful life for its citizens -- was created from the Ottoman's complete defeat and disassembly. The only quid pro quo, which is embodied in the criteria for Membership for a country in the United Nations created as part of this new world order, the only requirement was that each country live and seek to live at peace with its neighbors.

Peace is not Lebanon's defeat. Peace is the gift that Berri's ancestors gave their lives to create, so that his life could be better than was theirs.

Berri continues to underperform the hopes his father and his father's father had for him and his generation.

Get over it .. make and live the peace so many fought so hard and gave their lives to create. Stop the waste .. today.

Talk 44-MISSED GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY FOR FREEDOM: All wondering if Hizbollah agrees to UN 1701. This is surreal! Anyone with half a brain knows Hizb arms has nothing to do with protecting Lebanon but transforming South into Iranian rocket base endangering its residents. Hizbollah is an Iranian Brigade causing more destruction every day it is not disarmed, its leadership & deputies put in prison & properties confiscated. Anyone helping HizbIran to stack arms, create hideouts in residences and dig tunnels must be tried for grand treason. Netanyahu actually wants Hizb to retain some arms so he can torpedo the 2-state solution & stay in power instead of prison. For permanent peace, democracy, independence & prosperity our Army must immediately give an ultimatum to Hizb to surrender all its arms & tunnels. Everyday it wait results in more destruction and innocent lives killed. Thousand volunteers will join army if it needs help to get rid Lebanon of this cancer. Serious Talks Continue:

Talk 45- ENOUGH LIES – 1559 NOW (PART1): UN 1559 is a must and any leader or politician pretending otherwise is a traitor responsible for the unnecessary destruction of our cities.
1. Israel army goal is to disarm Hizb not to occupy Lebanon. Disarming Hizb insures the end of war.
2. Hizb is an Iranian brigade willingly destroying Lebanon to benefit Iran’s tyrants & hegemony aims
3. Hizb fighters not protecting south but the Iranian tunnels & rockets. They are causing South destruction
4. Disarming Hizb is a Lebanese, Arab & Western demand opening flood of aid & army support
5. Netanyahu & Hizb same message of hate & destruction, needing each other to stay in power
6. Netanyahu wants Hizb to keep arms so he stay in power instead of prison & prevent 2-state solution
7. Defeating Netanyahu is by disarming Hizb, working with Saudi for 2-state solution & permanent peace.
8. Only with UN 1559 Netanyahu & his radicals will be defeated and sent to prison for war crimes.

Talk 46- ENOUGH LIES – 1559 NOW (PART2): Anyone seeking war pause without disarming Hizb is plotting against Shia, Palestinians and condemning Lebanon to more occupation & misery.
1. All Hizb leadership are foreign agents destroying Lebanon to protect weapons that benefit Iran tyrants
2. Hizb leadership & deputies must face justice & all Hizb properties seized to help displaced
3. Berri is opposite of Imam Saddr plotting against Lebanon for personal benefits. Amal needs new leader
4. With only one remaining hidden arm storage Hizb fighters can occupy all Christian & Sunni areas
5. Batrak, Mutran Aude & Sami Jemayel are acting as Hizb Useful Idiots by not calling for immediate 1559
6. With Hizb fighters indoctrination & hate, can Batrak/Aoude/Jemayel protect Christians without 1559?
7. Where is army? If army disarmed Hizb after its arm storages were hit, it would’ve prevented Israeli incursion & senseless destruction of cities, many killed civilians & millions displaced?

Talk 48 – ENOUGH HIZB APOLOGISTS AT MTV:
1. George Ghanem must be fired by MTV for being Hizb mouthpiece. He can’t see difference between Maronite political power used to preserve freedom, democracy & sovereignty; Sunnis political power with Rafiq Hariri focusing on education, development & growth making Beirut envy of the region; and Shia duo power that is destroying everything Hariri built, killed our freedom and independence, bankrupted our nation making it an Iranian rocket base. Worst he wants Army to fight Israel instead of disarming Hizb for no more wars. What a disgrace!
2. Nabila Awad; hard to find a dumber reporter. She keeps saying Hizb received Shia vote & praising Nassrallah the killer of Hariri, Tueni, M14 martyrs & the assassin of a nation. Pls read history to know that no free vote under arms. 95% percent of Shia Iraqi voted for Saddam (same for Kadafi & Assad). When Hizb is disarmed its leaders will be hanged by Shia for duping them for so long.

Talk 47- ENOUGH LIES – 1559 NOW (PART3): Disarming Hizb will free the Shia community prior to freeing Lebanon and allowing it to rejoin the Arab fold. Hizb is a curse on Shia first.
1. All are shocked at level of indoctrination and ingrained hate of Hizb fighters and supporters
2. Shocked at level of Hizb community transformation into Iranian basij in dress, thoughts & hate
3. Shocked at quantity of hidden arms all over Lebanon & at border of non-Shia cities
4. Shoked at wasted money on weapons & tunnels while children facing hunger (Houthis strategy)
5. Brightest Shia men instead of being engineers & innovators to rebuild Lebanon are destroying it for Iran
6. Who will protect those opposing Hizb occupation once war stops if Hizb fighters not disarmed?
7. Disarming Hizb free Shia, restore freedom & democracy, open flood of investment, bring prosperity
8. 1550 a must to rejoin Arab fold & rebuild nation. Otherwise, slow death continues.
