Hezbollah didn’t only take 2 Israeli soldiers hostages, but he took Lebanon hostage and gave it to its masters (Iran & Syria) as a bargaining chip. Do we Lebanese have a saying in all this? Did Hassan Nasrallah ask us, the Lebanese, if we agreed on such operation? He doesn’t care. He thinks he is untouchable and any decision he makes, we the Lebanese, must obey it. After all he is a Muslim religious leader and Allah path is the right one. He threatened every single Lebanese, right after kidnapping the Israeli soldiers, he asked all Lebanese to stand by his resistance or else. Or else, what? You will pull your Imam Ali sward and cut our heads?
Government: “The act or process of governing, especially the control and administration of public policy in a political unit.”
Why our “so called” politicians are silent? Until when they will keep playing this old record “the decision should be in the hands of the government”. Government!!!! Are you kidding us? This government been engaged in a national dialogue for almost a year and came out empty. This government has 2 Hezbollah ministers whom they didn’t inform this “government” about their military operation in the South against Israel.
This government still labels Hezbollah a resistance. How can they label it a resistance while it doesn’t even report to them? How they can label it a resistance while it calls itself “The Islamic Resistance”? Does this government understand that such resistance doesn’t believe in a country called Lebanon?
Sovereignty: “Supremacy of authority or rule as exercised by a sovereign or sovereign state.”
This, so called government, has not authority or rule over an Islamic resistance in Lebanon. Yet this resistance is represented in government and in parliament. How a country can be sovereign if it has on its soil a military force that doesn’t take order from the government or the national army? How can Lebanon be sovereign if Hezbollah keeps its arms and decides on its own when to drag our country to war?
Democracy: “Government by the people exercised either directly or through elected representatives.”
Hezbollah, like any other Islamic group, joins the political democratic process and once they get what they want, they are the first to open fire on democracy. When they join the political process, we hear and read western media, analysts and politicians, (who lives thousands miles away and only know about these groups through books or the media) calling it a victory. They know nothing about how these organizations work. Do a small research and read what these westerners wrote when Hezbollah was engaged in the “democratic” elections in Lebanon. I was reading at that time and laughing. Now I understand how Al Qaeda, Hezbollah and other terrorist organization can beat the West. They play your game and at the end they shoot you and shoot democracy in the head.
Hezbollah doesn’t believe in democracy. There is no democracy in Islam. There is no democratic election under Islamic law. There is only Islam and the Umma.
A Lebanese politician said:”Hezbollah will prevail”. Ideologically, this leader is supposed to be on the opposite side of the political spectrum of Hezbollah. But he, like others is playing it safe. But if we really look into it, we noticed, even after September 11 and even of what is going in Afghanistan, Iraq, Indonesia, India, London, Madrid… The west still doesn’t get it. The west still thinks with reason they will win over radicalism. They still do not get it. Neither money, reason, houses, infrastructure … Will change a single thing. They will take your money, they will talk to you, they will let you build their towns and infrastructure but when you blink, they will stick a dagger in your back. What is more important of all this for them is simply … Islam. Does the west know what Islam is? No it is not the new last name of Cat Stevens.
