[An Nahar] Lebanese Forces A Christian political party founded by Bashir Gemayel, who was then bumped off when he was elected president of Leb... leader Samir Geagea ...Geagea was imprisoned by the Syrians and their puppets for 11 years in a dungeon in the third basement level of the Lebanese Ministry of Defense. He was released after the Cedar Revolution in 2005... on Wednesday lashed out at the caretaker government for "ceding the strategic military and security decisions to Hezbollah" and "putting the Lebanese people and Leb ![]() ’s higher interests in the face of the region’s storms and the open conflicts among all its parties." "At a time all Arab countries, from the biggest one to the smallest one, are distancing themselves from the ongoing conflict in Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppressionand disproportionate response... and the Middle East, we don’t understand according to what logic Lebanon is being implicated in this war, especially that it is currently the smallest and poorest nation due to its ongoing financial, economic and political crisis," Geagea said in a written statement. "Perhaps the caretaker government, seeing as it is acting in caretaker capacity, cannot carry out developmental projects and economic initiatives and cannot rehabilititate the infrastructure and so on, but at the core of its responsibilities lies the mission of sparing Lebanon war and confronting the dangerous things that threaten the citizen’s security, life, family, work, interests and future," Geagea added. He also accused the government of "endorsing the Axis of Defiance’s stance on the ongoing wars in the Middle East." Geagea is apparently referring to recent stances by caretaker PM Najib Mikati, who on Friday noted that pacifying the situation in south Lebanon without taking into consideration what’s happening in Gaza would be "illogical." "Based on our Arab identity and principles, we demand a ceasefire in Gaza as soon as possible, in parallel with a serious ceasefire in Lebanon," Mikati added. "We do not accept that our brothers be facing genocide and destruction as we seek an own agreement with anyone," the premier went on to say. More than three months of cross-border violence have killed 190 people in Lebanon, including more than 140 Hezbollah fighters and over 20 civilians including three journalists. In northern Israel, nine soldiers and at least six civilians have been killed, according to Israeli authorities. The violence has also displaced tens of thousands of residents on both sides of the border. |
