Nasrallah Urges No 'Despair' on Govt., Threatens to Bring Iranian Fuel Ships to Beirut Port

W460

Hizbullah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah on Tuesday said the cabinet formation initiative led by Speaker Nabih Berri should have no deadline as he threatened to “bring Iranian fuel ships to Beirut port” if the Lebanese state does not resolve the fuel shortage crisis.

“We are against early parliamentary polls, because it would be a waste of time and it would deviate people’s attention from their concerns. Instead of talking about early polls, let them form a government,” Nasrallah said, in a televised address marking the anniversary of Hizbullah’s al-Manar TV.

“We are with continuing the government formation efforts and there should be no despair. Let those forming the government feel the people’s pain,” Nasrallah added.

Nasrallah also said that one of the reasons behind the delay in the formation of the government could be that some parties are awaiting the end of the state’s subsidization of essential goods.

“The current official performance is weak in the various files and at the various ministries and the government, ministers and directors general must shoulder their responsibilities, especially that the government formation crisis might protract,” Hizbullah’s leader added.

“The radical solutions for the economic crisis need years and it is unacceptable to wait without finding a solution to the current crisis,” Nasrallah said.

Turning to the country’s fuel shortage crisis, Nasrallah said an Iranian proposal for selling Lebanon fuel in Lebanese lira is still on the table.

“If Lebanon accepts at this very moment, fuel ships would come now from Iran,” Hizbullah’s leader said, lamenting that “we are in a country that has surrendered to the United States.”

“We need a bold political decision to resolve the gasoline crisis in Lebanon,” he urged.

He also threatened that Hizbullah would take action in this regard if the Lebanese state does not act.

“If we reach a state of despair over the state’s action, we in Hizbullah will negotiate with the Iranian government and buy gasoline and diesel ships and will bring them to Beirut port and let the Lebanese state block the entry of diesel and gasoline to the Lebanese people,” Nasrallah said, warning that Hizbullah “cannot tolerate the scenes of the people’s humiliation.”

So the terrorist marking the anniversary of Al-Manar, the terror TV network, talks about his victory over Israel, fighting America, the heroic acts of his Iranian terror allies in Yemen, etc. and then Lebanon according to Aoun does not interfere in other nations' internal affairs.

Lebanon under this treacherous regime deserves everything it is getting and more!

بعد خطاب الأمين العام لحزب الله السيد حسن نصرالله اليوم الثلاثاء الذي تحدّى فيه الدولة اللبنانيةوهددها في حال تم منعه من استيراد الفيول من إيران، ردّت الإعلامية ديما صادق على نصرالله بتغريدة نارية. وقالت صادق عبر حسابها الرسمي على “تويتر”: “نصرالله عم يتحدى الدولة تمنعو يفوت البنزين الايراني عل بلد. سماحتك مين عم تتحدى بالظبط؟ رئيس الجمهورية اللي انت جبتو،؟ او حسان دياب اللي انت سميته؟ او الحكومة اللي ما بتتنفس قبل ما تميل عند وفيق صفا؟ انه فايت بعملية تحدي الذات سماحتك”؟

For God's sake, who is this ignorant, uneducated, wild man who is every now and then telling us what to do in our own country. If he is so much fond of Iran, let him go there and live and do as he pleases and who really cares about him. This guy has been holding Lebanon hostage, helped by this small man called Aoun, who sold his soul like Youda for thirty silver and shitted on Lebanon and its Christians. I am one of these Christians ashamed of being Christian with this puppet in power. Rahi should depose him by any means. Anyhow, he is so old (90 years old) and might die any day. I am sure the devil is waiting for him with open arms for selling his country like Youda did with jesus.

Why is this man putting his nose into politics? Isn't he a religious man and his mission should be to show people the way to God (Though I think he shows the people, through his actions, the ways of the devil, as he only calls for killing and destruction?) In addition to that, isn't there anyone from the Shai seeing that this man is taking Lebanon into the wrong direction? Not that the Shai are Lebanon and are the ones to decide its fate; but with leaders like Aoun, they have made them so. To these we say, wake up and smell the roses before it's too late. But if they want us to be like Iran, why not then ask for relocation to their loved country Iran to save Lebanon total destruction? Iran is huge country and could easily accommodate them all. We need people who love there country first and foremost. We also would ask them to preach Aoun and Basil to convert to Saism and ship them to Iran where their hearts belong!!!

His wardrobe is kinda poor. Always the same brownish cloak ant the black turban. I suggest him to go get a pair of jeans from Levi's!

Thumb i.report 09 June 2021, 15:25

I can tell you that if the rasool was living today, he’d be wearing the fanciest Italian suits with the finest wool and linen.

The cloak is from the Middle Ages for Middle Ages people… unfit for the 21st century .

Nassrallah Threatens to Bring Iranian Fuel Ships to Beirut Port

Will they be for the Lebanese or Syrian market? Why doesn't he and his terrorists stop smuggling fuel to Syria?
