Abu Faour: Hizbullah's Stances Have Become an Unbearable Burden
2022-01-05
[An Nahar] MP Wael Abu Faour of the Progressive Socialist Party announced Tuesday that "Hizbullah
...Party of God, a Leb militia inspired, founded, funded and directed by Iran. Hizbullah refers to itself as The Resistance and purports to defend Leb against Israel, with whom it has started and lost one disastrous war to date, though it did claim victory...
’s stances and regional policies have become an unbearable burden for Lebanon Hezbollahstan
...a strong argument in favor of European colonialism, even French colonialism...
," hours after Hizbullah chief Sayyed His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah
...The satrap of the Medes and the Persians in Leb...
launched a blistering attack on Saudi Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. Fifteen of the nineteen WTC hijackers were Saudis, and most major jihadi commanders were Saudis, to include Osama bin Laden. Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman quietly folded that tent in 2016, doing terrible things to the guys running it, and has since been dragging the kingdom into the current century...
and its monarch.

"Insulting Saudi Arabia, its leadership and Lebanon’s Arab ties is no longer an occasional stance... It is clear that it has become a premeditated policy aimed at destroying these ties and plunging Lebanon into the Iranian trap," Abu Faour said.

He accordingly criticized Hizbullah for "taking the country hostage to matters that have nothing to do with Lebanon’s belonging, interest or ability."

"It is clear that the promised defense strategy is no longer limited to Lebanese soil and logic requires that it include Hizbullah’s policies in the region," the politician added.

Nasrallah verbally attacked Saudi King Salman
...either the largest species of Pacific salmon or the current Sheikh of the Burnin' Sands, Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques and Lord of Most of the Arabians...
in his speech on Monday, saying Riyadh helped spread bully boy ideology worldwide and is taking the thousands of Lebanese who work in the Gulf region "hostage."

Nasrallah's statements during a televised speech came in response to comments by King Salman, who called on the Lebanese in a speech last week "to end the terrorist Hizbullah's control" of Lebanon.

The comments come as Lebanese authorities are trying to mend relations with Saudi Arabia that hit a new low in October when the kingdom recalled its ambassador from Beirut and banned all Lebanese imports. The Saudi move followed comments by a Lebanese Cabinet minister who said in a televised interview that the war in Yemen
...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of...
was futile and called it an aggression by the Saudi-led coalition.
