Nasrallah has appealed to Syrian-installed puppet Emile Lahoud to embark on a "national rescue initiative" so that the country does not fall into the hands of "thieves and murderers who are followers of the American-Zionist project".
Nasrallah said his militia will not recognize a president elected outside the "consensus", and will consider him an "usurper". He added that the presidential election is important because it will determine the role of the army and government in the next period. He said no force on earth can disarm his militia, and that last week's exercises were a "message to the world that the resistance can create a victory that can "alter the face of the region".
Nasrallah also warned against privatizing cell phone companies-- which Siniora's government is trying to do-- threatening future bidders that his Iranian-owned militia will "confront them using legal and legitimate means". Nasrallah, who represents a privatized version of Shia Islam, has his own phone network, and prefers to keep his wiretapping operation undisturbed by giving new licenses or modernizing the service in the land of do as you like.
He also called for early elections, and vowed to accept the result of that election and give the current "fake majority" the right to elect a president if they win two thirds of the seats. He said he considers the results of the last parliamentary elections invalid, because the deputies who allied themselves with Hizbullah during the election have not honored their campaign promise of rejecting UNSC 1559 and protecting the "weapons of the resistance".
Nasrallah denied rumors of impending clashes erupting between Hizbullah and armed elements in the refugee camps near the southern suburbs. The rumors are, mind you, are being propagated by Damascus-based PFLP-GC leader Ahmad Gibril.
The speech, delivered on the occasion of "Martyr's Day", is full of lies and hypocritical claims as usual. It's safe to say that Hizbullah now equates the current Lebanese government and March 14 leaders with the Israeli government. That he hasn't called for jihad against the government seems to be a matter of time. It makes you wonder on what basis Hariri and Berri are meeting. Does Hariri really think he can reach an agreement with people who consider him to be a Zionist thief and murderer?
Nasrallah only has hind sight! Can only see after the destruction has been done
Someone needs to take out this Nasrallah.
That’s because his “hindsight” is literal. His mishapen head is always up his nether passage..
Guess: Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine - General Command??
"Is this the Judean People's Front or the People's Front of Judea?"
I am not going to comment on political issues. The “privatization” of cellular companies (there is two of them) is at least suspicious after the Hariri government (to whose political side Siniora owes allegiance) had added a few billions to the huge national debt by taking control of the cellular sector. This sector was considered by Siniora himself and by others as the sole reliable source of income to the lebanese government. The lebanese people do not approve this kind of squandering. They prefer that this sector remains under the control of the government and use its income to cover the losses of other public sectors managed by the same government. A third cellular company would be the most welcomed.
