Future News also reported that Hassan, who is the highest Druze spiritual authority called President Michel Suleiman earlier in the day to condemn the comments made by Wahab, who is a Druze.

Wahab , a staunch ally of Syria and Hezbollah told OTV on Monday “Saudi women are black trash bags we see nothing of,” in reference to their attire. He also slammed outgoing Prime Minister Saad Hariri and Saudi Arabia.

In a related development angry protesters took to the streets and blocked North Lebanon’s international road in protest against Wahab’s comments on Saudi women.

Around 500 protesters gathered and chanted “There is no God but God” and “Wiam, you pig; you should be chained down.

National News Agency (NNA) reported that the northern Abboudiyeh road that links Lebanon to Syria was blocked by burning tires.

The NNA added that security forces intervened to try and re-open the road.

Tripoli is Lebanon’s second-largest city and is considered the stronghold of the country’s Sunni Muslim community, which is the majority in Saudi Arabia.

Jumblatt also condemns

Progressive Socialist Party leader MP Walid Jumblatt who is also a Druze condemned on Tuesday Wahab’s statement about Saudi veiled women

“Such a statement is rejected… it does not reflect the ethics and traditions of the Arab Druze and all believers in general,” Jumblatt told the PSP official website.

“Wahab’s statement is an assault on all veiled women and not just a category of them,” he added.

“Such behavior reflects negatively on us and increases tension in the country and in our relations with [neighbor-states].”

Wahhab told OTV on Monday “Saudi women are black trash bags we see nothing of,” in reference to their attire. He also slammed outgoing Prime Minister Saad Hariri and Saudi Arabia.

      Have to agree with one thing that a Crap like Wahab shouldnt mention Garbage bag as he need one to be put in ,him and Aoun actually could fit in one bag and send to a garbage incinerator ,where they could be useful at least as ferilizer to the land !!! at least something good could come from their rotten body ( it is rotten anyway) . The last thing we need is a garbage men like Wahab to insult other religion.

    What a disgrace statement from a Druze mouth of no significant family values.Why don’t you SHUT UP that dirty mouth of yours .You are a disgrace figure to your Druze community and you should know your trashy statement is a reflection of how empty and shallow your brain is. I suggest you should wash that dirty mouth of yours with CLOROX and cover your face with a black plastic bag as well. (SHAME ON YOU JACKASS.)

    this idiot didn’t insult the women only because of the attire. the real reason is to stop them from opening their mouth and ask for their rights in society. @ lebnaneh: it is good that the lebanese press print all opinions, because this is how we get to know what a person like him thinks and what a jerk he is.
