Walid Phares Tells Hariri 'Hizbullah Invaded Beirut, Assassinated Politicians, Citizens'

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Lebanese-born American adviser to members of the US Congress Walid Phares replied on Friday to Prime Minister Saad Hariri's comments about Hizbullah's weapons reminding of several encounters when the party “utilized its weapons in the capital Beirut and elsewhere.”

“Mr PM Hariri, Hizbullah has invaded Beirut and attacked Mount Lebanon with heavy weapons in 2008, assassinated politicians, officers and citizens as of 2005. They used their arms against Lebanese. They should be disarmed under UNSC 1559,” said Phares on his Twitter page on Friday.

Phares' remarks came after PM Hariri said in an interview to French Paris Match weekly magazine a day earlier that “in Lebanon, Hizbullah has a political role. It has weapons, of course, but it is not using them on Lebanese soil.”

Hariri's comments drew a storm of criticism from Hizbullah's critics which made him clarify his remarks affirming that his comments were misunderstood.

“What I said in (the) Paris Match (interview) was clear like the sun. We have a truce with Hizbullah the same as they have a truce with us. We do not deny what happened in the past, but we are seeking to protect the country's stability whereas some parties are seeking to stir strife in the country,” Hariri had said.

Shameful and disgraceful that a Prime Minister whose father was assassinated by this evil terrorist group called hezbollah has to stoop so low in order to be prime minister.

Mr. Walid Phares: I am writing to you so you may here the voice of the young, beautiful and educated Lebanese women.

The Houthians have kidnapped my tiny country and poisoned everything that is beautiful in it. They teamed up with the Fouthians in an iron clad alliance of personal and religious interests. They want to convert all of us to Houthiism and make the beautiful women of our country wear the chador.

Mr. Phares: I know you are an avid hiker and mountain climber. You know when you are all alone in the rain forest and you are faced with a Houthian and a Viper and your existence is at stake and you have to make ONE decision to survive. I know you will make the right decision and kill the Houthian first.

Please, give my warmest regards and those of Jannah, Firdous, and Gigi to members of Congress and let them know I will be addressing the U.S congress on my next trip to Washington in early 2018.
Ciao

النائب نديم الجميّل عبر "تويتر": يقال أن حزب الله لم ولن يستعمل سلاحه داخل لبنان. ماذا عن 7 أيار؟ ماذا عن القمصان السود؟ ماذا عن اتهامات المحكمة الدولية في قضية إغتيال الرئيس رفيق الحريري؟ ماذا عن شهداء ثورة الأرز؟

If he was a real person and not a Movaten fake account, I'd be concerned with the mental state of this particular individual.

An Iranian "born" in Lebanon = ANCHOR BABY, yet talks just like an Israeli defending his illegal occupation.
