Nasrallah Slams Bitar over Diab Move, Urges Govt. Formation

W460

Hizbullah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah on Sunday launched a fresh attack on the lead investigative judge into the port blast case, this time over the latter’s subpoenaing of caretaker PM Hassan Diab.

“If Judge Bitar wants to question the prime minister, then let’s amend the constitution, and what he did is a rejected violation of the constitution,” Nasrallah said in a televised address.

“We call on the judicial authorities to intervene,” he added.

Nasrallah also again accused Bitar of “practicing politicization” and managing the case in a “selective” way.

Turning to the stalled government formation process, Hizbullah’s leader said: “Unfortunately, all the blood and pain have not pushed the officials to finalize the government's formation.”

“The government's formation is the main gateway for resolving the crisis,” he said.

“The claims that we are awaiting the Vienna talks are ridiculous,” he added.

“It's about time the discussion of the ministerial portfolios ended in order to form the government,” Nasrallah urged.

As for the issue of the Iranian fuel ships, Nasrallah announced that the Iranians will load a third ship to send it to Lebanon.

“The days are coming and the facts will appear regarding the fuel-loaded ships from Iran… and the talk will be clear when the first ship arrives,” Nasrallah said.

The terrorist is just blabbing as usual. However, he defends the constitution only when it suits him and his allies, but everything else he does is anti-constitutional and illegal.

Additionally, Michel Aoun is not respecting the constitution by demanding a share in the ministers and by blocking the formation of the government, not a single word against him!

Hassan Nasrala is a cancer for this country.

The day this evil Iranian sectarian terrorist is brutally and violently murdered is the day we celebrate our true independence.

According to IREPORT, he thinks he's right on every piece of propaganda he types.

Why is he making so many speeches already---if anything, it reminds us more on why we can't stand kizb and company. Also, Diab should be questioned and so should the old man in baabda. Those two are supposedly in charge of the county.

Of course, kizb was 'taking care' of the explosives in the port to begin with, so why doesn't he volunteer the information. Everyone already knows that kizb blew up Beirut, and he hasn't done or said anything to change that.

the government formation is in the hands of oun only, so why everybody keep going public and asking for solutions, the solution is in his hands and he does not want to solve it, Mr Nasrullah, lets get to the bottom of this, oun is bad and he have no intention of fixing anything, under his supervision, there happened a lots of corruptions and crimes and disasters, think about it for a second, why is this happening, it is simple, this man is bringing a curse from GOD because he is in the office, ounly speaking.
