Geagea Urges Hizbullah to Emulate Moqtada al-Sadr
Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea on Monday called on Hizbullah, without naming it, to emulate influential Iraqi Shiite cleric Moqtada Sadr, the leader of a militia that fought against U.S. forces in Iraq and later against the Islamic State group.
“I wish those we have in Lebanon would emulate Sayyed Moqtada al-Sadr, who ordered the disbanding of (the) Saraya al-Salam (militia) once the war on IS ended,” Geagea tweeted, in an apparent reference to Hizbullah.
Earlier in the day, al-Sadr had ordered Saraya al-Salam to hand over its weapons to the Iraqi government “as soon as possible,” in a speech marking the end of the anti-IS war.
Geagea's remarks also come a day after the circulation of a video showing alleged members of Saraya al-Salam in south Lebanon.
The date on which the video was filmed is still unclear but its social media spread follows the circulation of a similar video showing the commander of Iran-backed Iraqi group Asaib Ahl al-Haq, Qais al-Khazali, in a tour on the Lebanese-Israeli border.

Lol, I see your role here has been reduced to waiting for me in excitement only to paste the same inane comment every time.
Do you miss me that much?
I miss his teardrop tattoo? The man has committed murder.
Lol, simply because Moqtada met with the Clown Prince of Saudia, Gaga's main patron.
