Hizbullah: Salam's Arab Stances weren't Discussed in Cabinet, Don't Reflect Viewpoint of All Lebanese

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Hizbullah noted Monday that Prime Minister Tammam Salam's stances at the Arab Summit were not discussed or sanctioned by the cabinet, pointing out that the PM's remarks do not reflect the viewpoint of all Lebanese.

“We listened to PM Tammam Salam's speech at the Arab Summit in Sharm el-Sheikh, in which he justified the aggression by some Arab countries against Yemen and its people and voiced support for the creation of a joint Arab force,” Hizbullah Industry Minister Hussein al-Hajj Hassan said in a communique.

“We want to clarify that these two stances – the aggression on Yemen and the creation of a joint Arab force – were not discussed in the Lebanese cabinet,” Hajj Hassan declared.

He underlined that Salam's remarks “reflect the viewpoint of a part of the Lebanese and do not reflect Lebanon's official stance which should be taken by the Lebanese government.”

“We will raise this issue in the next cabinet session,” the minister announced.

Last week, Saudi Arabia launched military operation Firmness Storm to combat the growing influence of the Iranian-backed Huthi movement in Yemen. It has launched airstrikes in the country, backed by several Arab and Muslim countries.

An Arab League summit declared over the weekend that the operation will continue until legitimacy is restored to Yemen through the reinstatement of toppled President Abdrabbo Mansour Hadi. Arab leaders also agreed to establish a joint Arab military force.

In his speech at the summit, Salam stressed keenness on supporting “constitutional legitimacy in Yemen” and “any Arab stance that preserves Yemen's sovereignty, territorial integrity and social fabric.”

He said the threats emanating from the Yemeni crisis prompted Saudi Arabia to "heed ... President Hadi's call and launch an Arab-Islamic military coalition to contain the dangers, consolidate legitimacy and restore normalcy in Yemen."

Salam also voiced support for “the creation of a joint Arab force to combat terrorism and safeguard Arab national security.”

Hizbullah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah has lashed out at Riyadh over its military offensive against the Huthis, who are accused of receiving major support from Iran, Hizbullah's main regional ally.

He accused the Gulf kingdom of turning a blind eye to the Palestinian people's plight, “financing” the Islamic State extremist group, and fabricating “lies” to justify the military intervention in Yemen.

Now the terrorist cares about the view point of ALL lebanese. When you went to Syria did you care about what ALL the Lebanese felt? In 2006, did you think of how ALL the Lebanese felt? When you sabotage the presidential elections, do you think about what ALL the lebanese feel? When you carried the glorious May 7th invasion of Beirut, did you think of how ALL the Lebanese felt. Tough luck Iranian spokesman, tough indeed. The fish die by the mouth as southern houthi says. LOL

ya southern, when hezbollah went to Syria and started a war with Israel it never consulted the Lebanese government in complete disregard to the viewpoint of all Lebanese. The disassociation policy was completely disregarded and mocked by hezbollah.

The majority was elected in 2005, the majority was elected again in 2009... U meant our local shiite millicia opinion (aoun doesnot really count remember syria accountability act? Remember how he considered that hezbollah was a syrian tool and should be dismanteled imediately? This guy would be readdy to wear a pink miniskirt and dance in front of baabda if someone offers him the presidential chair...)

Sorry i forgot there are also the good guys who call themselves saray al moukawameh (as a soothern u should know that saraiy el moukawameh was non functional because hezbollah had taken over since early 90's and that's way the communist party was loosing more man on there way to the operation sites killed by ur secular and progressist friends than during the operations per se and that georges hawi said on tv....

As part of the, civilized Lebanese, people, We acceptall iranian opinions of educated and free loving people, not Rev guards or baseej,

I believe intervention in Syria _was_ discussed in the cabinet, and the decision was to implement a disassociation policy.

The declarations of Ebola against KSA have killed all chances for the Caporal.
Thank you Ebola for eliminating the Caporal.

lol, another one of them who starts by saying " I am against HA" and then comes the "but".... then you know the rest of the story.

bassil succeeded in eliminating the dissociation policy/baabda declaration from the Arab Summit resolution which has been part of every previous Summit. This is a key point which everybody seems to overlook. it is the duty of the foreign minister to make sure he proposes this as an article in the resolution before the heads of state meet.

Thumb liberty 31 March 2015, 04:00

According to these sectarians there are revolutions that are halal and others that are not. It's ok for military intervention to save a regime when it suits them and it is not when it does not suit them.

Jungle rules,
The civilized majority of Lebanese people are not right in their opinion
Why,
Because HA ,covered by the puppet ClAoun , is holding the gun and therefore represents ALL

Hajj Hassan, you can fool some people some of the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time. You can pretend not to live in Lebanon some of the time, but you cannot pretend that you are not living in Lebanon all the time. Your party of God has been warned many many times and long ago, that times will change and that the wave to hit you will start, now it has started and you are still living in absurd denial.

Correction: They don't reflect viewpoint of all Iranians. The Lebanese have their own viewpoint. We are in the Arab world here, not the Farsi one.
