M14 urges Lebanon army, UNIFIL to deploy along Syria border

Share:

march 14 logo 2The March 14 General Secretariat called for the deployment of the Lebanese army along the Lebanese-Syrian border, assisted by UNIFIL forces stressing that unless this step is taken there will not be stability in Lebanon.

“Stability in Lebanon will only come as a result of specific measures which include the deployment of the Lebanese army along the Lebanese-Syrian border, assisted by UNIFIL,” the coalition said in a statement issued on Monday.

The alliance denounced the “security events which targeted the city of Hermel on Saturday and the city of Choueifat on Monday.”

According to Lebanon’s caretaker interior minister Marwan Charbel more than 400 cars had been stolen in Lebanon in the last six months and are now in Syria where most probably they will be booby trapped and sent back to Lebanon for suicide bombings

March 14 stressed that “Hezbollah’s involvement in the fighting in Syria will only bring Lebanon more horrors, destruction, terrorism and tears.”

An Islamist terrorist group suspected of links to al-Qaida declared Monday responsibility for the Choueifat suicide bombing in in which no one was killed except the suicide bomber and 2 were injured including the driver of the van.

Al-Nusra Front in Lebanon which is suspected of ties to the Syrian based Jabhat al Nusra, an Al Qaeda linked terrorist group claimed around midnight Monday responsibility for the Choueifat bombing and said the attack targeted a Hezbollah checkpoint.

The explosion occurred in a van that was taking passengers along the highway in Choueifat, a suburb south of Beirut, to al Dhahieh area a stronghold of the Shiite militant movement Hezbollah .

Al Nusra Front also declared last Saturday responsibility for the deadly bombing in Hermel in which 4 people were killed and dozens were in injured.

The terror group declared last week that all the areas in Lebanon where the Iranian backed Shiite Hezbollah militant group operates are “legitimate targets” for attack and warned the Sunnis to avoid them.

“We, al-Nusra Front in Lebanon, announce that Iran’s party (Hezbollah) and all its bases and strongholds are legitimate targets for us, wherever they are,” the group said in a statement which was posted on the Internet on January 24, 2014.

The war in Syria has inflamed sectarian tensions in Lebanon, with Hezbollah backing Assad’s regime despite the Baabda declaration.

The Baabda Declaration is an agreement that was reached between Lebanon’s opposing political leaders in 2012 which calls for distancing Lebanon from regional and international conflicts.

      Your statement is ironic. Wasn’t it just 6 years ago a helicopter containing an army general was shot down by Hezbollah for going into a ‘forbidden’ area?

      The latest ‘weekend dust-up’ was between ‘gang families’. Some others got into the act, as they always do when they hear shooting, and the LAF DID the work, … finally.
      And sure, always a little slow to ‘make’ the peace the people want, but because of that ‘confessional’ bit, they also like to watch and see which ones are throwing the shots first.

  3. M14 is in lala land…..To think that UNIFL will deploy along the border so that they are attacked is an indication of how far m14 is detached from reality….and before anyone jumps up and down and says why are they in the south the only reason they are is because israel has allowed it…..when our troops were murdered and dragged through the streets in arsal they said and did nothing….maybe now they want them there out of fear that the hand that fed is about to get bitten? In abra they attacked the army for doing its job and it took kawaji to bring them in and show them the tapes to prove to them what happened….the army arrested a sheikh last week and you had sheiks protesting against his arrest…..ziad baroud resigned as interior minister because of m14 meddling in security issues…the list goes on.

      UNIFIL works under a mandate from the UN ,,, and is restricted in size by all the factions, which need to agree to have it AS the Martyrs (witnesses) in between them to handle the petty little disputes which could lead to a war (in this case both sides like to worm around UNIFIL from time to time) and if that happens, UNIFIL will be gone (like some already decided to do). But there IS no ‘deal’ with Syria to draw a ‘blue-line’ zone everywhere else anyway … and, reality check, how many troops would it take to line the freaking border – which was never drawn. ??
      When you want a UN Peace-MAKING force, you will be emulating the Libya Experience.
      And everyone just hates to see those aircraft carriers and destroyers lining up off-shore, don’t they?? People make wild promises (e.g. Gas removal) just to have them go away. Right? ;-))

      And the excuses go on. UNIFIL wont be attacked by Sunnis half as much as by HA and the Syrian army looking for reinforcement. But of course you will deny.

    3. Affirmative dateam, M14 should be called M farteen. They are nothing but a bunch of losers hanging out behind Hariri jr for some cash.

    This army deployment issue could be one of the reason of that Bomb attack. The plan was to deploy army in the Syrian border but without a major reason it was impossible to implement this. But now the “Terrorist” just making it easy and meaningful.

    Lets quote a line from this article…………”The alliance denounced the “security events which targeted the city of Hermel on Saturday and the city of Choueifat on Monday.”

    Yeah right and I think we must deploy the army in the Syrian border.

  7. They should have requested this since 2006 and UN 1701 to block Inew ranian and Syrian weapons reaching Hezbollah through Syria. Where was UNIFIL and the LAF in preventing weapons from getting to Hezbollah through the Bekaa Valley? Will this now prevent Hezbollah going to Syria too?

  8. I don’t understand what is wrong on deploying the lebanese Army on the border if necessary or feasible
