Jumblat on al-Hasan Assassination: Crime Bears Signature of Bashar and His Gang

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Progressive Socialist Party leader MP Walid Jumblat on Friday accused Syrian President Bashar Assad of ordering the assassination of Brig. Gen. Wissam al-Hasan, chief of the Intelligence Bureau of the Internal Security Forces, warning that “we must not accuse anyone in Lebanon because we would be implementing what Bashar wants."

 "I openly accuse Bashar Assad and his regime of killing Wissam al-Hasan," Jumblat said.

“Bashar Assad does not care about material damage or loss of life in Lebanon and we must confront politically,” he told the Al-Jazeera satellite TV network.

In another interview with LBCI television, Jumblat said: “The crime bears the signature of Bashar and Bashar's gang and is aimed at taking revenge on one of the most prominent struggle figures in Lebanon.”

“It's a severe blow but we won't be scared,” Jumblat vowed.

The Druze leader warned that “it is important not to engage in internal confrontations so that we don't give Bashar the excuse.”

“He does not care as he is killing an entire population,” Jumblat noted.

He said there is a “Syrian intelligence apparatus” that still has its roots in Lebanon and “there is more than one Michel Samaha in the country.”

“The more we speed up the toppling of Bashar, the faster we would be providing stability for the Syrian and Lebanese peoples,” Jumblat added.

“Today, emotions are stronger than politics, but we must respond politically,” he went on to say.

The powerful car bomb rocked a street adjacent to Sassine Square in Ashrafiyeh, leaving Hasan and seven other people dead and 78 people wounded, in the first such attack in the Lebanese capital since 2008.

"I openly accuse Bashar Assad and his regime of killing Wissam al-Hasan," Jumblat said.

The truth was stated clearly.

Perhaps you should walk away from Assad's hands in Lebanon? I'm referring to HA / FPM..... talking is good, acting is better!

This paltry evil man has no loyalty for his country. He can only spread hatred and sedition with no regard to the national security of Lebanon. He is indeed mentally sick and should be sectioned to a psychiatric asylum at no dely.

March 14, should not remain silent anymore and use nice words. If they want to fight us with hardware we shall fight back with hardware. Slowly slowly the freedom loving people will be fighting a war without leaders.
The next michel samaha in Lebanon could be the traitor Aoun.

how about trying to answer why so many anti syrian figures in lebanon get killed while the pro syrian ones get left alone?

once you answer that, take your agents of syria and iran and get them the hell out of this country along with yourself and we would be better off.

Yalla Bashar, Mo3llem, pleeeeease come out, condemn the violence and accuse Isreal/Mossad of the explosion!! I can't wait. Do you think anyone is going to believe anything you say now ya kleb?. Wleh surmayet yahudi bteswa kel kalb menkom and all the other kleb tools that co-operate with you.
How hard is it some Lebanese to see that IRAN wants a shi'ite foot hold in the ARAB world? and they use the ISRAEL card to fool people with their crap?? ISRAEL is harmless -the harm is the cancer that is growing within, IRAN and it's tumors, Sheikh Hassan Kalb w'Bashar Puppet Assad. Walak thef 3a heik sha3b, wayn wataneyetkom ya kleb.

C'mon, accuse me of being a Zionist, an American traitor. Bas lah ya kleb, ma te7lamo lebanon ra7 yenba3 ya IRAN....your days are counted ya wled eshramouta.

I wish some lebanese realise, ISRAEL IS NOT THE ENEMEY - Bashar is the enemy, IRAN IS THE ENEMEY. Aoun - ya 7ayawen, how many more hints do you need??

Question:Is there hope for Lebanon? Answer: with the present constitution never.
Q:Why? A: easy to explain, it is impossible to have peace in a country when it's population do not feel and experience that they belong to one nation. Q: how come? a precondition to belong to one nation is to have equal rights. Q: how to change it? A: The first step is well known and obvious, the second step in formal and official communication speak, and write one language...Lebanese

once Bashar is out then we can start talking of eliminating his element in Lebanon , infract they will have to leave by themselves or bow down to all other sects because Israel will not keep quiet for the defeat hesbollah inflicted on them and once that happen they would need refuge then they will try to come to us! So they will now have to start re-calculate there options and start realizing the truth. So please don’t start a war in Lebanon cause that is what will ease Syrias

issue and divert the worlds attention away from all the crimes bashar is doing and once the world attention has been diverted that is when bashar would order a full strike on the uprising! Please calm down in Lebanon and think with your heads not with your emotions! Please be upon Lebanon! Amin/Amen its all the same!!!!! Allah Kbeer!!!!
