Geagea: Hezbollah pointing fingers at itself in Hariri’s murder

Share:

Lebanese forces leader Samir Geagea said on Tuesday that by contesting the UN-backed Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) which is probing the 2005 assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri, Hezbollah is admitting of being behind the murder.

The way Hezbollah is refusing to cooperate with the STL, its refusal to hand over the four indicted Hezbollah members and its accusations of the tribunal of being politicized are evidence that the party is pointing fingers at itself, Geagea told Saudi Al-Ekhbariya television.

“The STL leaks to media outlets are not signs of its politicization,” Geagea stressed

The LF leader also slammed what he called the “Syria and Hezbollah’s” cabinet.

“Hezbollah and the Syrian regime sponsored the collapse of former PM Saad Hariri’s cabinet and the formation of a new one headed by PM Najib Mikati,” Geagea said.

Geagea added that the current cabinet was paralyzed even before starting its work because of the pressure made by March 14’s parliamentary bloc.

“We opposed this cabinet based on the way it was formed and its ideology, … we will oppose it through our political stances and movements, and through pressure groups in the parliament,” he added.

Commenting on the Syrian regime crackdown against the pro-democracy protesters the LF leader said that his party “can’t but respect the will of the Syrian people”

Syrian president Bashar Assad’s security forces killed over 2200 pro-democracy protesters who are demanding freedom since mid-March.

Four Hezbollah members were indicted by STL in the killing of Hariri , but the Iranian and Syrian-backed group refused to cooperate with the court.

  1. 1000000% right!

    kelna ma3ak Allah ye7mik!

    1. Actually I hope Allah ma ye7mi any politician in Lebanon…I hope they all go to hell!! (and I’m 10000000% positive!!)

      1. while your hoping they ALL go to hell, the rest of us patriots are wishing the patriotic leaders of our tiny nation all the health and blessings they may need.

        and if thats you being 1000000% positive, I would hate to see you even .1% negative!

        I can understand your frustration in lebanese politics but please direct your frustration towards the traitors and criminals running the country.

        If you can give me ONE reason why Geagea, Sami, Amin, Saad, or any other prominent cedar revolution politician should go to hell I will entertain the fact that you may be .000001% right. And please dont mention the civil war its getting old. but if u can please tell me what negative thing they have done to our country since 2005. We have been trying to build a nation that represents us the Lebanese majority and not the IRANIAN culture that has been planted on our soil.

        I can promise you that Bachir, Rafiq, and Pierre as well as all other murdered patriots are NOT in hell. In fact soon they will rest peacefully in their graves knowing justice was served!

        1. Fadi….who told you I’m not a patriot? It’s because I’m a patriot, I want all the politicians to resign and have more qualified people in their place….And  you said to direct my frustrations to the criminals running the country and that’s  why I said “All politicians”!!.

          By the way, the negative thing that they have done for our country since 2005 is: THEY HAVEN’T DONE ANYTHING!! (like better health system, better education, roads, water, electricity and so on…)

      2. “Fadi….who told you I’m not a patriot? It’s because I’m a patriot, I
        want all the politicians to resign and have more qualified people in
        their place….And  you said to direct my frustrations to the criminals
        running the country and that’s  why I said “All politicians”!!.”

        Nobody told me your not a patriot nor did I say you weren’t a patriot…I said “the rest of us patriots wish them well” if you took that as me calling you unpatriotic then so be it. Wishing ALL POLITICIANS to go to hell ‘equally’ does not equate to you directing your frustrations in the right direction…but rather it somehow de-sensitizes the severity of the crimes commited by the real scum bags ruining our country. for you to put the patriots in the same pot as the terrorist criminals that have plagued our country proves your frustrations are mis directed.

        “By the way, the negative thing that they have done for our country since
        2005 is: THEY HAVEN’T DONE ANYTHING!! (like better health system,
        better education, roads, water, electricity and so on…) ”

        Ah yes “THEY HAVEN’T DONE ANYTHING”, I’ve heard that one before also…while I can agree that health care, education, roads, and electricity are key issues, they are not the MAIN issue…Lets not forget the fat ass terrorist GORILLA in the middle of the room. That gorilla nearly cost us our entire nation in 2006, that gorilla cost us innocent children’s lives in 2006. That gorilla continues to plague Lebanon with its filth and infestation. So if confronting this gorilla and confronting its Syrian masters means NOTHING then yes they haven’t done anything. If fighting for ONE nation, ONE ARMY, ONE government via the Cedar revolution means nothing to you then yes they haven’t done anything. If seeking JUSTICE for all our martyrs, and attempting to move beyond the times of impunity for criminal terrorist organizations means nothing to you, then yes they haven’t done anything.

        Until we get rid of the illegal arms outside of the states control and move towards international  and domestic ‘normalcy’ we cant have all the other important social benefits you mentioned. what good is it to build more power plants if HA could drag us into another war with Israel and have them all bomed and destroyed? what good is it to build roads if Israel will bomb them when HA decides to start another war? so you see what im getting at here i hope.

        On the other hand, I continue to have hope for our nation and in its patriotic leaders who continue to press forward with ONE message. A free Lebanon that takes Lebanon’s interests in account FIRST! these few leaders will not waiver do to fear of repercussions or due to bribery, they are the only few that have stuck to the same message. This my friend is a very rare trait in Lebanese politicians.

        God bless the cedar revolution and God Bless Lebanon and the Patriots that are still willing to fight for it!

        1. Fadi, you make good points and I’m not against that. But if you ask the other side (Aoun and Hizballah), then they tell you that they are doing everything right and the other politicians are wrong!!. So I say I wish they will all just go away and we can have new and good leaders with no past, because this is what Lebanon and the Lebanese deserve.

      3. “Fadi, you make good points and I’m not against that. But if you ask the
        other side (Aoun and Hizballah), then they tell you that they are doing

        they will all just go away and we can have new and good leaders with no
        past, because this is what Lebanon and the Lebanese deserve”

        Fair enough, although I dont care to ask HA or Aoun what they think is right or wrong because clearly they cant tell the difference! It’s like asking a murderer if he thinks the court case against him is wrong even though all evidence proves he is guilty, ofcourse he will say the court is wrong! We both know what is right for Lebanon and im sure we can agree that HA and Aoun are definitely not it! this isn’t about religion, party or tribe but rather for our Identity as a whole. Lebanese are truly life loving people who welcome all people to their tables to break bread. this culture of hate and war and antisemitism is not who we are.

        to be honest I enjoyed this exchange with you Mazen, and I hope I didnt come off as offensive towards you. sometimes our frustrations in Lebanese politics can bring the worst out of us.

        1. No I’m not offended at all…I also enjoyed this exchange and it’s always nice to hear other people’s points. Like I said, I agree with your point but I’m still sick of all these politicians!!. Aoun and Hizballah leaders more!!:)

          I hope like you said that in the end Lebanon will be free and prosper…..take care.

        2. No I’m not offended at all…I also enjoyed this exchange and it’s always nice to hear other people’s points. Like I said, I agree with your point but I’m still sick of all these politicians!!. Aoun and Hizballah leaders more!!:)
