Mashnouq Condemns Hizbullah's Armed Appearance in Beirut Suburb

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Interior Minister Nouhad al-Mashnouq denounced on Monday Hizbullah's armed deployment over the weekend in Beirut's southern suburb of Bourj al-Barajneh stating it as a "challenge to the new term" of President Michel Aoun.

“Hizbullah's manifestation is condemned and rejected. It is a slap in the face for the new term and a challenge to the logic of the State,” said Mashnouq on Twitter.

The Minister added that the government will respond to the military parade with more persistence to extend the State's authority, he said: “We will reply to the military parade with a better confrontation in favor of the State and the State only.”

Mashnouq pointed out that measures that the law imposes will be taken to prevent all forms of “self-security which the entire Lebanese reject.”

Pictures of masked Hizbullah members in black-clad went viral on social media on Friday, as reports said they spread out in Bourj al-Barajneh in the evening in a campaign against drug dealers and gangs.

Sources close to Hizbullah said the move was not coordinated with the party's leadership and that it was taken by individual Hizbullah members.

Former Justice Minister Ashraf Rifi has also slammed on Saturday Hizbullah's move saying it confirms the “state's resignation in favor of statelet

"Hizzoballah ....against drug dealers and gangs". Yeah sure. Cash strapped Hizzoballah were really there to collect debts and back taxes from drug dealers and pimps.

you hit the bullseye. they claim not to use drugs but they don't mind the "haram money". some highly ranked official did confess that Hezbalaflouz mercenaries don't use as many captagons as Nusra but they do use some on they Syrian front.

Hezbola = terrorist crop growers protectors.

my post from last night

Super interesting. Hezbalaflouz repelled ISIS in Qusair in order to protect its hachich crops and that's why they didn't bother with Arsal and other places.

It is not Hezbollah, It is the people that banded together to keep drugs away from our children.

since when are vigilantes legal?

Oh! yes, i forgot! you spit on anything lebanese and especially the laws....

Thumb Mystic 03 April 2017, 13:22

Yes I would rather rely on the people of the neighbourhood not the March 14 controlled ISF.

Thumb Mystic 03 April 2017, 13:23

Nothing to do with the laws. Self defence is legal, saying no to drugs helps Lebanese laws.

Mystic go lie somewhere else

Thumb janoubi 03 April 2017, 13:36

The drugs and the dealers are right there in Laylakeh and not Bourj Al barajneh. They are under the protection of hezbollah and they conduct their business in the open. Spare us your BS.

Thumb Mystic 03 April 2017, 13:54

Go to the area and see for yourself, instead of allegations yahoudi.

Drugs is in every area also Akkar your area.

Thumb Mystic 03 April 2017, 13:56

Thumb Mystic 03 April 2017, 14:20

The ISF answers to March 14, not Lebanon.

lol @the iranian heretic inhabitant of dahieh.

Missing peace 03 April 2017, 15:17

yeah miss tic... keep it on. you are just making yourself more ridicule by each post...
i respect the presidency as an institution even if i cannot stand the new president because i BELIEVE in lebanon's institutions...i would obey the president because he is the president of LEBANON...

but you? you respect NOTHING as long as it is not hezbollah. you believe in hezbollah not in LEBANON... so piss off little zionist traitor

Thumb Mystic 03 April 2017, 15:49

Formulate it differently, I don't believe there would be a Lebanon without the Resistance, that's the difference here little peace.

The Zionists would've owned Lebanon by now, Or this would be ISIS if we had followed your corrupted ideas.

Missing peace 03 April 2017, 16:08

again deflecting the subject of the article to evade uneasiness to answer.... don't worry miss tic i am used to your weakness....

Thumb Mystic 03 April 2017, 16:28

Weakness? The weakling whines all day about the Resistance, you know you can't take it by force, so you whine and bark instead, march 14 are specialized in that.

Mashnouq Condemns Hizbullah's Armed Appearance in Beirut Suburb

and?

BTW, was there a single alleged drug dealer arrested by hezb of Iran? NO

This was no anti-drug operation but a political message to all those concerned.

Thumb janoubi 03 April 2017, 13:29

that's all this useless minister can do: condemn and lash out and thinks the people of Lebanon believe his rhetoric. Then he goes to a dialogue meeting with hezbollah in a few days as if nothing has happened.

Here is another incident which shows you how "security" is handled in this country, read it and weep.

هذه تفاصيل الإشكال بين مناصري "حزب الله" والتقدمي الاشتراكي في الشويفات

What is interesting in the article above is the following:

اجتماع امني

ومساءً عقد اجتماع في مركز مخابرات الجيش في خلدة، حضره مسؤول المخابرات في الجيش المقدم نضال ضو، صادق غملوش عن "حزب الله"، ومروان ابي فرج عن "الحزب التقدمي الاشتراكي، ومنير الريشاني عن "الحزب الديمقراطي اللبناني".

وبعد التداول في الإشكال الذي وقع بعد ظهر اليوم في الشويفات، تم التأكيد على رفع الغطاء عن المخلين بالأمن، وعلى استكمال التنسيق القائم بين جميع الفرقاء، والتأكيد على انهاء اي تداعيات للاشكال الذي حدث.

The interesting thing is the army intelligence sits down with the same outlaws to discuss the security situation, thus acknowledging them as "legitimate".

That is Lebanon, its army, and its security agencies......

You ask me: Do you respect Interior Minister Nouhad al-Mashnouq ?
I say : I sure do

You ask me : Why do you respect him?
I answer: I don't know, I just do.
