According to the Mufti of Mount Lebanon, Hezbollah has transformed itself from a resistance group to a Mafia organization, trying to force its will on the Lebanese people by using Mafia tactics . Mohammad Ali Jozu said of Hezbollah that they are in the middle of a coup against the government in which they were a major partner for one and a half years. He added “ they are threatening to close roads , airports, ports etc….this is no more a peaceful demonstration , but a coup against the state” .Jozu went on to say that under the cover of a national unity Government , Hezbollah has destabilized the country , divided the nation and planted the seeds of a religious civil war. He said Hezbollah is making sure that the International tribunal for trying the killers of Hariri never takes place , in order to protect the criminals of their allies in Syria and their Lebanon counterparts. Jozu said with the kidnapping of the Israeli soldiers that led to the 33 day war Hezbollah has kidnapped Lebanon to serve the interest of Syria and Iran .
About Hezbollah ally president Lahoud he said “ this guy represents the interests of Syria in Lebanon and has destabilized the country and its institutions to serve Syria’s interest." He asked “ isn’t this a mafia tactic ?" Jozu insisted that Lebanon government should be the only authority and its army the only army and should make sure that the coup does not succeed.
