Moussawi: Lebanon Should Take Official Stand and Respond to Israeli Leaks

Loyalty to the Resistance bloc MP Nawwaf Moussawi stressed on Friday the need for Lebanon to take an official stance and respond to Israeli leaks of military and security plans to attack Lebanon.

It should retaliate through a media, political, and diplomatic campaign that would prevent the Jewish state from “fabricating facts before the international public opinion.”

“Lebanon should assert that it has always been a victim of Israeli aggression and it has the right to take defensive measures against it,” he stated.

“The leaks should not be met with such silence, but the Israeli military and political criminals should be put on trial … The Lebanese foreign ministry should charge Lebanon’s ambassadors to foreign countries to take the emergency procedures to highlight Israel’s war crimes,” Moussawi added.

Earlier this week, the Israeli military held a set of war games aimed at preparing the army for all-out war with Hizbullah, Syria and Hamas, the Jerusalem Post reported.
