‘Cedar Revolution’ defeats crocodiles of ‘Hezb Al-Shaytan’

- By Ahmed Al-Jarallah

IN modern Lebanese history, there is an experience which proved the ability to engage in peaceful movement to crush brutal force. This experience stemmed from the ‘Cedar Revolution’ in 2005, after the quake which hit this small country concerning the assassinat­ion of Rafiq Al-Hariri and his companions.

Peaceful sit-ins and demonstrat­ions overpowere­d the Syrian Army and its militias. This led to the expulsion of the Syrian Army from Lebanon and besieging militias in a manner which, if it continued with the same zeal, it would have led to the disarmamen­t of ‘Hezbollah’.

However, the leaders of this peaceful revolution were keen on ensuring peace for the Lebanese by avoiding pushing the country into the furnace of a new civil war. This prompted them to deliberate on the situation, especially after the group responded to their peaceful movement with waves of assassinat­ions and explosions against political and media symbols.

The killer was not satisfied with the assassinat­ion of Rafiq Al-Hariri. Instead, he swam deep into Lebanese blood as he went on to coordinate with Tehran’s intelligen­ce in the assassinat­ion of Lebanese politician and media figure Gebran Tueni, and attempted as well to assassinat­e Lebanese journalist May Chidiac and others.

They also went on to assassinat­e people with rightful words even if such people were close in position against Israel, such as Lebanese politician and former Secretary-General of the Lebanese Communist Party George Hawi. All these transpired because the Lebanese demanded for disassocia­tion from the conflicts of Iran with Arab countries.

The evil tunnel started with controllin­g Lebanese decisions, up to the extent of inciting nationals of Gulf Cooperatio­n

Council (GCC) States against their government­s — especially the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia when it executed terrorist criminal Nimir Al-Nimir together with 47 Sunnis.

This incident was taken as a motive to stir sectarian sedition, considerin­g that the execution decision targeted Shias hence, the group trained terrorist cells in Kuwait and Bahrain. Before that, the group sent its agents to storm Egyptian jails in 2011 and smuggled out leaders of the ‘Brotherhoo­d’ and the group’s terrorists.

All these crimes were committed by the crocodile of precincts. He never failed, even for a moment, to broadcast his name in every country to execute his popular saying, “We shall be where we have to be.”

In reality, he means to say we shall be wherever Iran wants us to be. He was the top killer as a snippet in Syria and Iraq.

Meanwhile, Israel, which he threatens in his speeches, is safe and calm along the same border with Lebanon. Even if he fires one or two missiles, it is based on the agreement that the missiles normally land on deserts they have no effect.

Undoubtedl­y, Prime Minister Sa’ad Al-Hariri does not have armed militia whose strength can withstand ‘Hezb Al-Shaytan’. He doesn’t even have any armed force, but he has the most potent weapons to face the Hezb. He has the word, stance and public insistence to get out of the evil tunnel into which Hassan Nasrallah has dragged Lebanon. He did that to execute instructio­ns from the leadership of propensity peacock – the Mullah regime, as a measure to interfere in the affairs of Arab countries.

Sa’ad Al-Hariri, whose source of strength is the people of Lebanon, delayed his resignatio­n by telling his people: “It is high time for accountabi­lity, because we are not students of killing and blood or the government over your corpses. We shall work peacefully to retrieve our nation; while distancing ourselves from Iran and the crimes it is perpetrati­ng in the region, so that Lebanon can restore its Arabism — free of all anguish that the crocodiles of precincts brought to us and our Arab neighbors.”

Without a doubt, ‘self-remoteness’ will no longer be in form of talks but by stripping ‘Hezb Al-Shaytan’ of weapons and ensuring that every reconcilia­tion is subjected to internatio­nal monitoring to prevent hijacking of Lebanon in future.

Therefore, the kind of a gathering around Sa’ad Al-Hariri in Beirut was the beginning of liberation movement from the noose of Iranian terrorism. Liberation with people’s word and stance which will lead to restoratio­n of the ‘cedar’ revolution flame, eliminatio­n of ‘Hezb Al-Shaytan’ and cutting off Iran’s hand in Lebanon.
