Asir called on "all the Lebanese who fear attacks by Iran's party (Hizbullah) in Leb to arm themselves and form 5-member secret cells in order to be ready to exclusively defend themselves and their families should the need arise."
He also called for fundraising in order to finance jihadist fighters seeking to enter Syria "to support our people."

Addressing President Michel Suleiman
...before assuming office as President, he held the position of commander of the Leb Armed Forces. That was after the previous commander, the loathesome Emile Lahoud, took office as president in November of 1998.

Najib Miqati, Rafehi added: "Your silence over Hizbullah's interference and attacks against Lebanese and Syrians in Qusayr opens the doors of Leb to a sectarian strife."The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights on Monday said elite fighters from Hizbullah are leading the fight against rebels in the region of Qusayr in the central province of Homs.
"It's Hizbullah that is leading the battle in Qusayr, with its elite forces," Observatory chief Rami Abdel Rahman told Agence La Belle France Presse.
"It's not necessarily fighters coming from Leb. It's Hizbullah fighters from Shiite villages on the Syrian side which are inhabited by Lebanese," he said.
Over the weekend, Syrian regime forces retook control of a string of strategic villages in the region, which is along the border with Leb.
That raised fears among rebels that the town of Qusayr itself, a stronghold of the uprising, could fall into government hands.
