Speech by Qabbani:
We thought Hezbollah was concerned with resisting Israeli occupation, and yet it has begun to occupy Beirut.
We turn to the Arab world, to tell them that Lebanon is under Hezbollah hegemony backed by foreign support, under the name of the resistance.
Here is Hezbollah occupying Beirut and the Rafik Hariri International Airport, and blackmailing the Lebanese government.
It is regrettable that an Islamic Republic should rise with the support of those who strike at Lebanese unity.
I call on the Hezbollah leadership to initiate the withdrawal of their armed members from Beirut and fear God, for the Sunni Muslims are tired of excesses.
Forewarned is forearmed.
