Geagea says Hizbullah's resistance behind current collapse, disasters
Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea has said that “the result of resistance as proposed by Hizbullah is the collapse and disasters we’re witnessing today.”
“Resistance is to live in dignity, but are you living in dignity today? They promise the people that they will fight the universe while our people are living ‘beneath the seventh ground,’” Geagea said, addressing the Shiite community in the Baabda district and entire Lebanon.
“We do not accept that any single party monopolize the concept of resistance, seeing as the real resistance is the one practiced by the entire state supported by the people. What Hizbullah is saying is wrong, seeing as they only want to preserve their weapons. If it is really a resistance, what has it done over the past 15 years?” Geagea asked, during an electoral rally for the candidate Pierre Bou Assi in Baabda.
“All Lebanese people support the concept of resistance, but it should be practiced within the right frameworks and exclusively through the Lebanese state and army,” Geagea added.
Geagea also accused Hizbullah of “allying with all the corrupts in Lebanon.”
