Joseph Aoun is sacrificing our freedom & democracy for generations to come. His actions are Grand Treason, infinitely worse than Vichy. Every person with half a brain knows Hezbollah are nothing but Iranian mercenaries & have nothing to do with resistance or liberation. They occupied the South turning it into Iranian rocket base controlled by Revolutionary Guard under Aoun duo eyes. Nassrallah threatening Cyprus is same as Houthis threatening Red Sea both acting as Iran mercenaries. Aoun duo allowed for personal benefits HizbIran to build advanced tunnels and massive arm depots & training terrorists throughout Lebanon. A Faustian deal. HizbIran does not represent Shia. Like Assad, support is 100% with arms and 0% & criminal tyrants without arms. World is giving Lebanon a unique chance to end Hizb occupation, free Shia & brings criminal Hizb leaders to justice for destroying a nation putting millions in poverty. Aoun is acting as Hizb puppet. He should resign!
