Lebanese Forces Resistance For Hezbollah’s Occupation is on hold, if not dead
Elias Bejjani/26 December/16
http://eliasbejjaninews.com/2016/12/26/elias-bejjani-lebanese-forces-resistance-for-hezbollahs-occupation-is-on-hold-if-not-dead/
It will not be a surprise at all if we learn very soon that a paper of understanding suddenly surfaces between Hezbollah and the Lebanese Forces, a replicate of that forged in 2006 between Hezbollah and Michael Aoun’s party, The Free Patriotic Movement (FPM).
Practically, and in actual reality The Lebanese Forces resistance for Hezbollah’s occupational status quo is on hold if not totally dead. Although rhetorically it is still timidly and marginally in existence. Now that the LF has officially shelved the Hezbollah ministate, weaponry, wars, and its dire occupational status quo in return for being a partner in the governments we are going to witness too many 180 decree political turns and shifting.
The well known journalist, Ali Hmade today in his interview with the Future TV stated that potential talks between LF and Hezbollah are on the Horizon with President Aoun’s mediation.
In this same context we learned today that Melhim Riachi, LF Minister in the Hariri Government (Information Portfolio) personally intervened to see that the Hezbollah’s General Secretary, Hassan Nasrallah last speech was aired on the Lebanese official State TV. (Report is attached).
In conclusion, Sadly all the Lebanese 14th of March coalition political parties did give up on the peaceful resistance option, and did succumb to the Hezbollah’s imposed occupational status..
The forming of the current Hariri Government portrayed clearly this succumbing shift.
Meanwhile only time will tell if these 180 decree turns and shifts serve Lebanon and the Lebanese people or not.
In summary, Lebanon is now re-living the Syrian occupational era, that theoretically ended in 2005, with one difference only. Hezbollah has replaced Syria..
