واشنطن تسلح الجيش "شرط الابتعاد عن الشراكة مع حزب الله"

Read this story in English W460

حذّرت واشنطن الجيش من التعاطي مع حزب الله كـ"شريك" في مكافحة الارهاب، ملمّحة الى ان هذا شرطها لتسليح المؤسسة العسكرية ومذكّرة بأن "الحزب يعرقل مشروع الدولة" وفقاً لمصادر صحافية.

فقد نقلت صحيفة "الأخبار" عن مسؤول صباح الثلاثاء، ان نائب مساعد وزير الدفاع الأميركي لشؤون سياسة الشرق الأوسط ماثيو سبينس حذر قائد الجيش العماد جان قهوجي، "من التعامل مع حزب الله وكأنه شريك له في الحرب ضد التكفيريين".

وأوضح ان ذلك " يضع الطرفين في المركز نفسه ويعطيهما السلطة نفسها".

كما نبهه ألا ينسى أن "الحزب يعرقل مشروع الدولة التي تحميها المؤسّسة العسكرية" مشيراً إلى أن ذلك قد يؤثر على تسليح الجيش.

وكان سبينس قد زار لبنان الاسبوع الفائت حيث بحث مع كل من وزير الداخلية والبلديات نهاد المشنوق وقهوجي "ملف تزويد الجيش وقوى الامن السلاح" معلناً أن بلاده ستزوّد الجيش دفعات جديدة من الاسلحة من ضمن هبة المليار السعودية وذلك لدعمه في مواجهة الإرهاب.

وبحسب ما افاد المسؤول "الاخبار"، فعلى الرغم من ان سبينس اكد "دعم بلاده للمؤسسة العسكرية"، إلا انه طرح شرطاً غير مباشر لتسليح الجيش، وهو ألا يتصّرف الأخير "وكأنه في جبهة واحدة مع حزب الله ضد الإرهاب".

ولفت الى ان سبينس اعتبر أن "نجاح الجيش في معاركه ضد المجموعات المسلّحة في عرسال يعود إلى الولايات المتحدة" مشيراً إلى ان بلاده قدمت للمؤسسة العسكرية "قدرات غير موجودة لدى الحزب، ولا يستطيع اي طرف آخر توفيرها، مثل صواريخ هيلفاير والأنظمة التكنولوجية الخاصة بالرصد والمراقبة".

كذلك فإن سبينس، بحسب المسؤول نفسه، اشاد بأداء الجيش الذي اعتبره "ممتازاً وحكيماً" في ظل الحرب على الإرهاب التي "خلقت واقعاً جديداً سمح للجيش الانتشار في الكثير من المناطق، بعدما تأكّد الحزب أنه غير قادر على إدارة المعركة وحده".

يُشار الى ان جرود رأس بعلبك كانت قد شهدت اشتباكات بين مسلحين وعناصر تابعة لـ"حزب الله"، فضلاً عن ان الجيش اللبناني كان قد تصدى لهجوم مسلحين حاولوا دخول المنطقة. وتأتي هذه الاحداث امتداداً لأحداث عرسال، التي اندلعت مطلع آب الفائت بين الجيش ومسلحين من "داعش" و"النصرة" حاولوا دخول البلدة.

واثر الحرب الدائرة في سوريا، تدخل حزب الله في مواجهات عدة محدودة في جرود منطقة بريتال-بعلبك الى جانب مجموعات من المعارضة المسلحة في الجانب السوري. ويتواجد الحزب في نقاط عسكرية عدة في مناطق جردية على الحدود يصعب الوصول اليها.

They are already more than cooperating.... Hence, why the army is a target.

takfiri this, israeli that, liver eater, yeah yeah yeah momo, we know your idiocies...

You're a genius FT... a true Nobel Prize...

Thumb thepatriot 11:01 ,2014 كانون الأول 16

What makes a man a traitor according to your standards FT? Wanting independence and freedom? Wanting to have one army for one nation? Rejecting militia? Wanting clear boarders with our neighboring countries?...
For me the traitors are those who wage wars, have their own illegal communication systems, smuggle weapons, abduct, trade drugs, tax ports, threaten, assassinate, plot, etc, etc, etc...You are the traitor FT!

Thumb _mowaten_ 11:34 ,2014 كانون الأول 16

"Wanting independence and freedom?" lol that's what you call being a subservient statelet for israel and the US? running and yapping at uncle sam's commands?

Thumb thepatriot 11:59 ,2014 كانون الأول 16

Flame... I nominate no one... I do not wish for an "Ex" head of militia to be president... I do not want wealth buried under the sea, but I do not want Lebanon's wealth to end up in a Terrorist militia's pockets either.
Freedom is choice, freedom is the contrary of intimidation, of threatening, of abducting, and killing. Instead of always attacking the "great Satan" FT, open your eyes and start understanding what is going on in our own country...
@mom... retarded as ever eh! Israel rubbish... yeah ok... go play...

Freedom LOL, that is the response from people who do not know what they are writing. BELLOW, is a good example. THE PATRIOT, I agree 100% with what you said.

The army has already allowed itself to be subdued and enslaved by the Irani militia resulting in a very clear cut bias against the Sunnis of Lebanon.

the paid mouthpiece once upon a time said:
"flamethrower.._
officially? only in your empty head, texas. the LAF is openly supporting hezbollah in their battle in the eastern mountain range."

But again his credibility here is a non issue.!

Thumb thepatriot 16:58 ,2014 كانون الأول 16

Nice eagle! You owned him big time!
But I don't agree about the fact that Flame T is paid... and if he is... his boss is an idiot to be paying for such a lousy job...

Missing peace 11:11 ,2014 كانون الأول 16

the sole goal of hezbollah is to drag the lebanese army into the syrian conflict instead of letting it only defend Lebanon... hezbollah wants the lebanese army to cooperate with the syrian one to justify both assad's regime and hezbollah's involvement in syria despite the Baabda declaration... that is why they wish the soldiers never to be released to prompt the army into siding with them...

M8ers would be proud to work with assad as they never stopped licking his boots as the sole president of Lebanon....

I guess your first attempt at humor was not successful so you thought to try again?

Thumb _mowaten_ 11:22 ,2014 كانون الأول 16

no they just want us weak, unarmed, divided. anyone who forgets that the US is israel's ally, not our's, is a simpleton or a paid hasbara shill

Thumb Mystic 11:47 ,2014 كانون الأول 16

Yes! Finally they admit it. Does USA care one bit about the LAF or Lebanese people? Only when it serves their interests that is, and when the LAF fights back against the U.S sponsored takfiris, then they get criticized by the Americans for doing so.

This is not a coincidence, our beloved Army doesn't need the U.S, it is time for a new Era, without any western influence.

What kind of aid, did the Americans give the LAF? M113 Apcs Old rusty tin cans from the 60's? Let Iran arm the LAF, stop waiting for the Americans and Saudi/French deals that never arrives.

Default-user-icon lebnani wbass (ضيف) 14:56 ,2014 كانون الأول 16

the US aid is a total of almost 900 m usd.
it provides laf with basic operational capabilities. that include training and tactics, increased mobility and sooner ISR and close air and fire support.

the french deal will enhance those capabilities

iran cannot help laf due to the embargo on weapon export, poor military industry complex, and lack of technologies

Thumb Mystic 12:00 ,2014 كانون الأول 16

Every week, we see Naharnet make articles about the French/Saudi arms deal being "finalized". That is all tons of nonsense, and we've heard that for months now.

Thumb freedomarch 13:13 ,2014 كانون الأول 16

Indeed, A terror party with legs allover aiming, through iranian blunt and aggressive funding and continuous support and training to overthrow governments, Lebanon, Iraq Yemen etc? Who knows, all means this arm of the Rev guards have no legetimate national goals. Their ideology is extremely clear and well known. WHAT is not understandable, is FPM and Aoun and his suns in law, how far and low they can go?

Thumb freedomarch 13:28 ,2014 كانون الأول 16

Psychologically Iran through hizEbola found 2 personslities that can give legitimacy to it's acts and plans that are underway, Aoun, the general looking for thst chair, no matter what are the consequences, they were able to Promise him the welth, and a chair, welth came the chair is hard because they are afraid from his Crazy ambitions.

The only solution is:
A military coup toppling all politicians and seizing the security over all Lebanon by only the Lebanese army with the help of UN (US or even DEVIL) to fight any resisting armed group including HA.
Enough with games of "ANATER" of any colour.
