The head of the Lebanese Forces Party, Dr . Samir Geagea, blasted the Iranian backed Hezbollah militant group over its refusal to implement Resolution 1701 and for endangering the lives of the Lebanese In the south.
He said in a statement:
“As Hezbollah refuses to implement Resolution 1701 and hand over the borders to the army and international forces in order to avoid a war that none of the Lebanese want, its use of some Lebanese border villages in the districts of Tyre, Bint Jbeil and Marjayoun as a platform for launching his missiles, this is totally unacceptable, because it exposes these villages to many dangers, the least of which we witnessed, unfortunately, yesterday, in addition to the fact that the majority of the people of these villages do not support Hezbollah ‘s actions , nor do they agree with its method of operation, which threatens to displace them from their villages, in the midst of these very difficult financial and economic conditions.
He aded “Hezbollah’s insistence on its weapons and its role is not the subject of Lebanese consensus at all, and therefore Hezbollah should respect the will of those who do not find any benefit in what it does, and to refrain from using the villages and properties of the people for its military purposes . “The current government, specifically the Ministers of Defense and Interior, are required to take all necessary measures so that Hezbollah does not use these villages, which do not constitute an incubating environment for its weapons and its role.”
Lebanon is being used by Hezbollah and Iran
According to observers “Lebanon is being used by Hezbollah to support its ally the Iranian backed Hamas militant group in its war against Israel in Gaza and to increase Iran’s influence in the region at the expense of the Lebanese people “.
Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah met in Lebanon today with Khalil al-Hayyeh, who is Hamas’ deputy head in Gaza and its Arab and Islamic relations officer.
