Qassem: Hizbullah Won’t Be Dragged into Strife No Matter How Hard They Try

W300

Hizbullah deputy Secretary General Sheikh Naim Qassem stated on Wednesday that the Mustaqbal movement and the March 14 camp are experiencing a period of low morale over former Premier Saad Hariri’s presence abroad, their failure in tackling social, economic, and political affairs, and the withdrawal of a number of officials from the camp’s ranks.

He said: “Their failures have forced them to point blame at other sides and this strategy will in turn backfire against them and lead to more losses within their ranks.”

“We are proud to be working for Lebanon and its sovereignty, but we are not proud of being affiliated with the American-Israeli agenda for the region,” he added.

“We are proud of the equation of the army, people, and Resistance,” he continued.

“We are proud of respecting the country’s constitutional mechanisms as in the past, we had accepted that we were part of the parliamentary minority, and we now accept that we are part of the majority,” Qassem noted.

“We took part in government when we believed it useful and refused when we believed it beneficial, but we did not work on destroying the country,” he stressed.

“We have not yet heard a single objection to our performance, but all we have heard are curses and repeated statements similar to Israeli ones on the Resistance and the need for it to lay down its arms,” said the Hizbullah official.

“Let them at least present one objection so we can discuss it for Lebanon’s sake. They haven’t said a word because they don’t care,” he declared.

“Let it be clear that Hizbullah won’t be dragged into strife no matter how hard they try,” he emphasized.

“Let them yell as much as they want and we will confront them with achievements. They have led the country to the edge of the abyss, what have they accomplished throughout their years in rule?” Qassem asked.

Qassem: Hizbullah won’t be dragged into strife.. we would rather do what we usually do and cause strife, that's the Hizbullah way.

“We have not yet heard a single objection to our performance".....

who are you? A minister, a politician, an elected official, or an ignorant prejudice so called religious man? Define who you are, so we can deal with you accordingly!

Notice how he is enticing Harriri to come back, so they would assassinate him like they did his father. I am sure Harriri has advisors who would tell him when it is safe to return home.

You started a war in 2006. You ran through the streets in 2008 murdering Lebanese and burning businesses. Your shabiha are in Syria. You sent fighters to Libya. You are building on church and gov't land. Strife seems to follow you no matter what. The people are tired of Hezz lies.

Your equation people army resistance is not complete, you should add to it minus army and minus people and every thing balances after that.

Equation of Army People Resistance is poetic propaganda.....it is the same but you are afraid of saying+Strong ARMY.
The ARMY is to defend the country
People make the ARMY through Institutions
RESISTANCE ...to what....The Army is doing the JOB.

BUILD the ARMY....DISMANTLE the MILITIA....INTEGRATE into the ARMY and you will have a STRONG unified ARMY to defend the COUNTRY....I REPEAT the COUNTRY

Have the courage and do it....you will be the WINNER....we all will be the WINNERS

That's what we call "Reverse Psychology"... they are putting their intentions on others to try an deviate responsibilities in case the event occurs. Who on earth can and want to have a strife in Lebanon if it's not HA after the fall of the Assad regime? It's their only way to keep power in Lebanon after loosing such an ally. The good thing is that these kind of statements shows the extent of their internal crisis and paranoya
