Zahra: Hizbullah has Turned into a Group that Oppresses the Lebanese to Halt the STL

Lebanese Forces MP Antoine Zahra criticized on Friday Hizbullah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah's recent speech, noting that the party has become an "oppressor of the Lebanese".

"Such a development should be met with peaceful resistance that would defend human rights," he told al-Arabiya television.

He explained Hizbullah's labeling of the Special Tribunal for Lebanon as an Israeli product as an attempt to halt its activity, pointing out that Iran and Syria had warned that the court would affect the situation in Lebanon.

Zahra stressed: "There is no power on Earth that could obstruct the tribunal expect a decision from the United Nations."

The MP highlighted the discrepancy in the opposition's statements where they say they want to thwart the tribunal, while simultaneously demanding justice and stability.
