Hariri Responding to Nasrallah: Hizbullah Linking Lebanon to Syria and Leading it to Destruction
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربيةFormer Prime Minister Saad Hariri slammed on Wednesday Hizbullah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah's latest speech, saying that he has completely “written off the Lebanese state” and substituted it with the party.
He said in a statement: “The most dangerous remark by Nasrallah was not his position on the Syrian revolt or his undying defense of President Bashar Assad, but his suicidal link of the fate of Lebanon to that of Syria.”
“We do not want to argue with Nasrallah's positions because most of them are disconnected from reality and any sense of responsibility as he has maintained his denial of the existence of the Syrian popular revolution,” he continued.
“Nasrallah has taken the final decision to stand with the ranks of the oppressors and announced his readiness to defend to the death Asssad's regime” at Iran's bidding, he said.
“The fate of the regime lies in the hands of the Syrian people who have taken the firm decision to topple it,” Hariri stressed.
“Nasrallah announced that the Lebanese state does not exist and the Syrian regime's continued existence is more important that the existence of Lebanon,” he added.
“Nasrallah has erased Lebanon off the political map,” he declared.
“Hizbullah alone makes decisions for the Lebanese people and it alone orders that Lebanon be dragged into regional and civil wars,” Hariri noted.
“Hizbullah alone has the right to issue fatwas to combat Syrians on their own soil and it alone has the right to direct insult after insult against the Lebanese state and army by repeatedly highlighting its inability to protect the Lebanese people,” said the former premier.
“Nasrallah announced the formation of an army to defend Lebanon's Shiites in the region and the entire world in a manner that makes it seem that the sect belongs to the party and is an entity independent from the state,” he continued.
“Based on this mentality, the party has given itself the right to expand its operations from southern Lebanon to include Syria's al-Qusyar region and Sayyeda Zainab shrine under the excuse of defending holy sites,” he remarked.
“Nasrallah announced that the Lebanese state is Hizbullah's hostage and the Lebanese people, starting with the president, primer minister, and speaker, have to base their actions based on this reality,” he noted.
“The state is Hizbullah's hostage along with all other groups and Lebanese sects,” he lamented.
“Hizbullah is leading Lebanon, starting with the Shiite sect, towards destruction and strife and we warn the Lebanese against falling victim to them,” he cautioned.
“This warning is directed to the national leaderships that are searching for constitutional and political solutions to form a new government and stage the parliamentary elections,” Hariri explained.
“Some sides however are linking their fate to that of the Syrian regime, and they will therefore not hesitate in sacrificing national Islamic unity for the sake of Assad's victory,” he said.
“Hizbullah alone is controlling Lebanon's fate and its secretary general not only announced the party's participation in the Syrian unrest, but he is threatening to spread this instability to Lebanon,” he warned.
“Hizbullah will inevitably find support among the allies of the Syrian regime in Lebanon, but we are banking on the real majority of Lebanese people and the free people of the Shiite sect who will not acquiesce to sacrifice their country and national unity for the sake of Hizbullah, Iran, and the Syrian regime,” he stressed.
The former prime minister renewed his call on the Lebanese people to reject through all possible democratic means to reject Nasrallah's positions.
It made its remarks in light of Hizbullah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah's speech on Tuesday during which he stated that the party had been taking part in the fighting Syria, saying that members were defending Lebanese border regions from attacks from Syria.
He also said that fighters are defending holy places in the country, explaining: “Armed groups are only hundreds of meters away from the Sayyeda Zainab shrine and Takfirist groups launched clear threats on the Internet that they will destroy the shrine should they enter the area."
Wake up sheikh saad. That's exactly what Nosrallah and Hizballah want. It's always been about this. If they can't rule the country thru fair eleccions they'd rather destroy it.
That's bipolar disorder with a hint of schizophrenia.... Probably because they hang out too much with Aoun. Nevertheless Hizballah will annihilate Lebanon, its people and economy very quickly.
Goodbye summer holidays...
Well said. This is the first time I hear Saad Hariri respond so strongly. Finally he is showing some balls. And he is also sending an indirect message to Israel that the rest of Lebanon is not aligned with Hezb, just in case there's a military conflict.
Well said Sheikh Saad...Hizabala is playing with fire that will eventually burn him and his terrorist party...
I have been saying it for a long while:
the actions of hizbushaitan and their cronies fpm and others are leading us towards a civil war.
some of us have been preparing for that eventuality, and we know hizbushaitan and fpm have too.
my expectation is that this new civil war will be deadlier than the one that preceded it.
Since just a bit over two years now, we have been hearing the biggest loser cheikh Saad al-Haribi Telteyn al-Marajil and his traveling snake-oil salesman in the streets leading to Damascus calling: ma3ana 7alib. ma3ana battaniyat. ma3ana madafe3. ma3ana rashashat. ma3ana majaneen (aka Sunnis who always stink sanni). What sweet sounds! How's business these days?
i dont agree with sheikh saad on linking lebanon to the fate of the syrian regime....nasrallah is linking the fate of his party and wilayat el frakih to the syrian regime
Regardez ce qu'ils ont fait en Syrie. Visionnez la vidéo.

Il ne faut pas les laisser faire la même chose au Liban
Are Hassan Nasrallah and Bashar Assad possessed by the devil? Where is love and respect for the right of all human beings to live in freedom. For this reason the oppressed are rising up. It is every human's God given right to live in freedom - choose where they wish to live and how, the right to choose whom they wish to represent them in government. This uprising by oppressed people is driven by goodness. Where is the good these 2 men represent? From what everyone is seeing and experiencing they represent, fear, warfare, killing, violence, manipulation, weapons, stealing other's freedom, ugliness, troubles, worries. Don't tell me these are holy, good men! Basha Assad is not worthy of the title President. He downgrades this important position through terrorizing people - people of his own country and race! Hassan Nasrallah and Bashar Assad are hiding behind the sacred banner of religion all their evil doings. They won’t last long. They won't win. Look what occurred to others like them.
Come on phoenix, layoff with this rant about Hezbollah is leading Lebanon into war. You are smarter than that. For almost the last 40 years this country has been in some form of conflict or another be it civil or against occupiers and now you want to shoulder every fault line on Hezbollah. If Sayed Hassen confirmed what you say everyone already knew then please tell me what has changed. Just as they did a year ago, Hezbollah will continue to assist some of the border towns. Do you really think Hezbollah has the man power to get any more involved in Syria than that. I am starting to wonder if you are also one of those that think the 2006 war was spontanious and not preplanned. The same thing is at work in Syria, there is an agenda and Lebanons turn is coming, with or without Hezbollah.
You're living in a fantasy world if you think the majority of the opposition are foreign fighters. The Syrians tried to protest peacefully, the government killed them so they picked up arms and then foreigners came in and joined in the war.
The lebanese radicals have been first in line for some time now. Tripoli, saida and tarik jdideh, not to mention the hezballah radicals.
I will not comment this KID but i will say one thing. Before commenting and pretending to be a victim and exiled Come to Lebanon reside in your COUNTRY that is if you are not actually NOT LEBANESE at all and then criticize everything .
I am neither an M8 nor an M14. I am Lebanese that left Lebanon 30 years ago to a western country. I love Lebanon and I visit every year. But I just don't see Mr. Hariri has the experience to run a government.
Hariri is a sunni ( saudi arabian salafi) and nesralla is a shia ( iranian neantherdal) both want to islamize Lebanon pure and simple,
Partition please please please.
No they dont 'the roar' because any Christian party was born to defend Lebanon for the Lebanese unlike the sunnis and shites of Lebanon, be real my man and say it how it is.
Partition please.
How can this silly uneducated saudi prick still talk regarding what is good and bad for lebanon?? I truly dont understand if hes that silly or his advisors dont give him 'real' advice. I also dont get how his so-called "supporters" and "followers" here in lebanon still listen to this child. I mean, al-mustaqbal supporters wake up!!! Your leader abandoned you in the most time you really needed him!! Or i guess the cash is still flowing in from paris??
Speech by Shaykh Mouaz Al-Khatib, President of the Syrian National Coalition, directed to Mr. Hassan Nasrallah, General Secretary of Hezbollah
In the name of God the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
To Mr. Hassan Nasrallah, the General Secretary of Hezbollah – Lebanon
Peace be upon all who stretch their hands out to the truth, and who stop the flowing of blood, and honours humanity.
It is no secret to you that the region is being drawn into a crises maybe none will be saved from, and that there is an effort towards the fragmentation of the region and the commencement of a terrifying sectarian conflict that would last for tens of years.
I do not believe in war, and I consider it as a degradation of our humanity, and that understanding one another is the only way to solve problems between individuals and between societies. Nations should not be deceived by their power and might, for how many a great Empire was dismantled and destroyed because of their conceit.
Have over one thousand years of Sunni-Shia strife and disputes not been enough for us to bury this rigid mentality and to leave behind these illusions of victory over one another.
In the July war (2006) the Syrian people opened their homes and their hearts for the Lebanese resistance despite some creed differences, because we were certain they were blocking an attack from an aggressive enemy and even the flags of Hezbollah were raised in our streets. During that time the Syrian people gave from their daily earnings and bread to their Lebanese brothers and sisters, is this (invasion of Syria) the gift that you give as a reward to those generous and charitable people?
Indeed, the invasion of Hezbollah into Syria has complicated matters greatly while I had expected from someone with your political and social weight to have personally become a positive factor in the cessation of the shedding of Syrian blood.
Is it satisfying to you that the Syrian regime shells it citizens with fighter planes and Scud missiles; mixing the blood and flesh of children with the bread; is it pleasing to you that thousands of women have been raped? As well as the killing of hundreds of children and them being tortured to death?
Is it acceptable to you that the Syrian people have lived under tyrant rule for fifty years, and when they stood up and asked for their freedom many world forces intervened and they were punished with the complete destruction of their infrastructure, the uprooting of their communities, becoming displaced and exiled, and the mass murdering of them, putting them into a frightening spiralling plot which they cannot escape from, that was made into a reality by the regime.
Is the prophet’s households’ doctrine the upholding and the defence of truth, or to defend a tyrant and reckless regime? And in this case it is the Syrian people who resemble the oppressed and martyred Imam Al Hussain, and it is none other than the violent regime who is the murdering offender.
I will say to you with all honesty: some of the stances that are being taken by some your officials will make part of your ideology responsible for a historical disorder, for moral bankruptcy, and some of the stances of some members of your party has caused a tidal wave of atheism that has began to invade generations: those stances, in my opinion, cannot be affiliated in any way to the prophet’s household (peace be upon them).
The consciences of the people can no longer go on, and the invitation by the two respected scholars, Al Rifai and Al Aseer, (towards defending the Syrian people) was nothing but a response to the chilling events that are occurring from the butchering of civilians and the gushing of blood, to the screams of the women in the prisons.
The alleged claim of the defence of Shia towns in Syria is unacceptable, for have they ever been under any threat in the past hundreds of years? And is Syria an area of conflict in which each power will come to defend a certain faction? I do not wish to enter into a never ending debate, and I do not want to recall what happened to some women at the hands of the criminals of the regime in a certain town which was a different sect to theirs and which they took advantage of by killing the women in order to protect themselves. Is this difference of sects the reason why all this is happening? And are there in Darya and Qaboun, which are at the sides of Damascus, any Shia villages in which they use as an excuse to come and protect the Shias in addition to them raising their flags in these towns?
Despite all this I will say to you what I have said previously in the media; that there is a massive plot to drag the whole world of Islam into a Sunni-Shia war beginning from Syria, then to Lebanon and then to the rest of the region including Iran and Turkey in order to destroy the region, and to consume completely the money in the Gulf states in order to fund this massive war and the purchasing of weapons to fuel this war in which there will be no victor.
From my modest experience in politics, but vast experience in life I have found that politicians are from the people who are not the most intelligent, are not aware of major threats that surround their countries, are the least to feel empathy towards others’ pains. Those politicians have contributed massively to all of the world wars, and while taking part in them seen nothing but their own interests, and thought they could control the situation in whatever way they wanted, with false victories causing them to become conceited, all the while consuming their nations and their people, and they didn’t realise that beginning a war is not the same as ending one.
With all honesty I say to you: the freedom fighters in Syria have enough courage to cover the whole earth, however the blood of your sons in Lebanon should not be wasted while fighting our oppressed sons in Syria, and there are some who are pleased with their fighting one another, and I demand that you withdraw all Hezbollah troops from Syria, and to begin communicating with the revolutionists in all Shia villages to secure the safety for all.
Is there not enough of an example in what happened during the long and brutal war between Iraq and Iran? Is it not enough for the Lebanese to have suffered an insane war which had lasted continuously for fifteen years, and in which the effects of it are still being felt until today. Are the streams of tears of mothers not enough, or the pains of the widows, or the mourning of the children and the orphans…has all the killing of the souls and the bodies not been enough!!
I am not addressing the politician in you, nor the leader, rather I am calling to your conscience and heart, to your mind and wisdom, to Syria and Lebanon. I hope from you and from the two scholars Al Rifai and Al Aseer to meet and to understand one another to prevent our country from a coming calamity and for all of us to be good will ambassadors and become positive factors in ending the conflict and not to ignite a war.
Let us be concerned about one thing only…that we do not lose our humanity…
the day FPMers will wake up and see the network woven by hezbis in lebanon and the power they have to mock any gvt and do as they please, deciding the fate of a whole nation, they will fall from very high... but their hatred in M14 blinds them and prevents them to see the big picture and realise that hezbis are not working for lebanon... FPMers agree that a simple party decides war and peace instead of the state, they deserve only pity... they always denounced lebanese politicians who collaborated for syrians (forgetting those who are now on their side!) but are just doing the same thing they fought against! they find any stupid justification to authorize hezbis to fight in syria forgetting they assured lebanese that hezbis were in lebanon only to fight against israel and defend lebanon not a foreign regime abroad...
it seems they have become the champions of hypocrisy which they learnt from their new hezbi masters... funny guys they are!
Let's not forget that the sole role of 'resistance' is to protect from Israel and the bearded monkey Nasrallah found a way to spin this off by saying Israel is invading Syria through the opposition and then will proceed to invade Lebanon from the North. There you go....he is forward-thinking! What a crock of BS.
Hariri is a whiner, moron and a sore loser. It will probably cost him a lot of his Saudi funding.
P.S. - If the idiots on the biase Nahar "Administrative" staff print this, it will be a miracle.
always thought you were a traitor ..now i am sure..Lebanon was ruled under the same mandate by the turks ..they never combined the two countries....Lebanon existed way before Syria..you have a typical Baathist mentality..now i know why you support the traitor Aoun.
