Geagea Says 2nd Cedar Revolution Won’t Yield until Hizbullah's 'Statelet' Disappears

Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea said at the Cedar Revolution’s sixth anniversary on Sunday that the second Cedar Revolution won’t succumb until Hizbullah's "statelet" disappears.

Geagea addressed March 14 supporters gathered at Martyrs Square saying: “We only want the Lebanese state to govern; we won’t rest until the state within the state concept vanishes and the state is established.”

“We will not accept for our destiny to remain controlled by someone else, we will not accept for our decisions to be made by parties which reside beyond our borders, we will not accept for our economy to remain paralyzed, we will not accept for our history to remain distorted, and we reject any harm against the Lebanese army,” Geagea said.

The LF leader reiterated to the crowds gathered at the square “we are seriously attempting to get the Lebanese out of the swamp … we are attempting to restore life back to normal.”

Geagea reassured the Lebanese that the blood of March 14 martyrs will not be wasted, saying “the tribunal, since its establishment, has suffered violent attacks even before it began to show results, in a desperate attempt to stop its work.”

“Yes to the state alone resisting for all the Lebanese,” he said.
