Geagea: Lebanon’s Security Being Jeopardized for Sake of One Party
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea stated on Friday that Lebanon is passing through an “unenviable” phase given the weak security situation and lack of justice and an incompetent state.
He said during the LF students’ graduation ceremony: “It’s natural that the security of a country be destabilized, but for it to be destabilized on a daily basis for the sake of one party is unacceptable.”
“It’s natural for political assassinations to take place in countries throughout the world, but it is unprecedented for a government to refuse to persecute the criminals and for some of its members to harbor them,” he added.
Furthermore, he noted: “Worst of all is having a government that wastes no time in condemning any enemy violation of Lebanon’s sovereignty, but that remains silent and subservient to the violations of Lebanon’s fraternal state.”
The LF leader made this statement in reference to the Syrian army’s recent infiltrations into Lebanese territory where it said it was chasing Syrians who had fled into Lebanon.
“It is as if we have become orphaned in a country without guards, borders, sovereignty, and dignity,” Geagea stressed.
On state appointments, he lamented the fact that the March 8-dominated government would appoint an individual to a position as an act of gratitude for that person’s certain political stand.
He made this remark in reference to former minister Adnan Sayyed Hussein’s appointment as the president of the Lebanese University.
The March 14 camp blames Sayyed Hussein for playing a major role in the toppling of the Saad Hariri government, which was overthrown in January when the March 8 camp ministers and Sayyed Hussein resigned.
At the time, Sayyed Hussein was not considered to be affiliated with either of the rival March 8 and 14 political camps.
“We are now living in one of Lebanon’s darkest periods, but one must remember that the darkest hour of night is always followed by the bright dawn,” Geagea added.
Addressing regional developments, he stated: “The Arab Spring will mark the end of a dark period in the region’s history and pave the way for a time of freedom, democracy, diversity, justice, and truth.”
“Our future will not remain hostage to any side, but it is counting on our will and commitment to freedom and Man in Lebanon and the East,” he stressed.

God bless you ya Hakim, what you said is the truth and the truth hurts the evil doers. M8 followers refuse to see the truth even if it bites them in the face. Many Many Shia are against hizb and amal thugs and they love Lebanon more than Iran or Syria but can’t do much about it, you see the gun is also pointed at them and if you speak against hizb you get harassed, killed or even kidnapped but sooner or later the people of free Lebanon will unite and destroy hizb and their thugs.

Good for you Hakim. You always have and always will "say it like it is", that's what we love about you, "No Sugar coating" here. Unlike the March 8 TRAITORS (of course including the Biggest Christian Traitor of all Mr. Cloun & Sheep), Destroyers of Lebanon, and well-known Agents of the "Basij" and "Shabbiha".
