Geagea: Situation in Lebanon can't wait for settlement in Gaza

A Christian political party founded by Bashir Gemayel, who was then bumped off when he was elected president of Leb...
leader Samir Geagea
....Geagea was imprisoned by the Syrians and their puppets for 11 years in a dungeon in the third basement level of the Lebanese Ministry of Defense. He was released after the Cedar Revolution in 2005....
has warned that "the situation in Leb
...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade.

It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...

Geagea also reiterated that "activating the southern front was a major sin and not a mistake."

As for the presidential file, the LF leader underlined his full rejection of the notion that the next president will be elected by the 2026 parliament, noting that the LF is "exerting utmost effort to guarantee that the presidential election battle will not be postponed until after the upcoming parliamentary polls."

Accordingly, Geagea called on "centrist MPs" to "shoulder their responsibilities and contribute to the election of a president in an instant manner," emphasizing that "this step is the only way to exit the current crisis."
