JOSEPH AOUN IS A DISGRACE TO THE PRESIDENCY AND ARMY. Hizb Iranian mercenaries & worshipers of mass murderer Khamenei dynasty willingly destroying Iran for self-preservation, have been raping Lebanon for decades with politicians’ complicity. When entire world including Arabs, Europeans & Americans came to help Lebanon disarm these criminals & save Lebanon from this cancer, Aoun & Haikal protected the criminal rapists. Aoun & Haykal fooled us & wasted a once in a lifetime chance for freedom killing hopes of millions by protecting the criminal occupier. Disarming Iran mercenaries would’ve saved the South & Lebanon soul. Civil war is a lie. Hizb is universally hated as 80% of Iranians hate their regime. Army universally supported can certainly & easily defeat these weakened & isolated Iranian mercenaries. UN, Egyptian & French can help if needed. Mothers unable to feed their kids will disarm these occupier with bare hands. Aoun is complicit in the destruction of Lebanon!
HIZBOLLAH IS NOT DEFENDING OUR TOWNS BUT FORCING THE SYSTEMATIC DESTRUCTION & OCCUPATION OF LEBANON to serve Iranian mass murderer regime objectives. Every Israeli they kill is an insurance that more Lebanese cities will be destroyed. If Israel price too high, they may never leave the South. Shame on our president & prime minister for failing in disarming those Iranian mercenaries a critical step to save Lebanon. We called them the Dream Team when elected, but soon realized they were the Nightmare Team. Not putting Berri in prison for the $14 billion loss & destruction in 2024 Gasa Isnad war is stupid. Berri is the king of corruption, the opposite of Imam Saddr in every respect, having blackmailed and sucked the life of Lebanon & Shia for decades. Worse giving all 5 ministers to duo is a crime against Lebann & logic. Salam trying to fix mistake but too late. Expel Hizb minister now & call for international assistance in disarming Iran mercenaries or you are part of the crime!
