Saad Elias – Al -Quds Al -Arabi
It surprised the decision of the bold and unprecedented cabinet to assign the Lebanese army to develop an applied plan for an exclusive weapon in the hands of the state, “Hezbollah”, which has deviated from its way, accusing the government of “committing a major sin in taking a decision stripping Lebanon of the weapon of resistance to the Israeli enemy,” declaring that it will deal with this decision as if it was “not present.” The “party” was raising the ceiling of the objection and its supporters in the street after the withdrawal of the Shiite duo ministers from the session, and the Shiite minister, Fadi Makki, was forced to go out after he felt embarrassed in front of his environment and because of the great pressures that were exerted on him.
This is the first time in decades that the Shiite duo lost a battle within the cabinet, after it was able for many years to impose his vision on the political decision of the Lebanese state even in the days of the government of President Saad Hariri, which political forces hold responsible for settlements and concessions in front of the duo and not confronting the escalating influence within the state and its institutions and disrupting the constitutional entitlements from the presidential elections to form governments in the event that Hezbollah’s opinion is not standing.
Although the party was knocked on the drums of the objection in the face of Prime Minister Nawaf Salam, this objection did not reach the limit of the withdrawal of the duo from the government and the presentation of their resignations, as happened during the era of the government of President Fouad Siniora, the day after the international court approved the assassination of President Rafik Hariri, but the protest was limited to withdrawing from the cabinet session and waving the weapon of the “Charter” after the two ministers of the duo refused to correct the government decision and postpone the research. In the file of weapons until the army presented its plan on August 31.
What disturbed “Hezbollah” is that after he tried to neutralize the President of the Republic, General Joseph Aoun, he was surprised that the President congratulated the ministers on the decisions taken, saying, “In successive previous governments, the decisions were taken as it was, but today the government decisions are taken better, and today we are making a new decision to serve Lebanon and its people, and I am proud of you” to rise to applause after the hall.
And whoever continues the way of President Aoun dealt with Hezbollah, he realizes that by managing negotiations with the representatives of the “party” over a period of 7 months, he only received slow progress, in exchange for procrastination and waste of time, which made him pay a lot of his popular balance because of his keenness to spare the country, any absurd conflicts, and his constant endeavor to reassure the environment of the “party” to the appointment of the former minister. However, when the President of the Republic found that the country is going through a crucial stage and reached the edge of the abyss and he has to choose between collapse or stability, he initiated not to neglect the opportunity to rescue and decided to walk by assigning the Lebanese army, which is the knowledge of its ability to put the applied plan for the exclusive weapon without any negligence, in a clear response to the refusal of the Nile from the prestige of the military establishment, its strength and its role and the lack of acceptance of questioning its ability to defend Lebanon And the protection of the borders and sovereignty, as some people who do not see a guarantee in the face of Israel except with its party weapon, although this weapon did not achieve no deterrent force and was unable to protect two years old of the party, not even villages and southern towns, through the suburb.
Thus, instead of “Hezbollah” responded to the appeals of the President of the Republic, and instead of betting on the Lebanese state alone, he preferred to reject its decisions, which may lead to taking the country to new adventures and Israel’s continued invoking the party’s weapon after Sheikh Naim Qasim threatened to fall off the entity in the event of a widespread war.
And if the discourse of the oath and the ministerial statement did not talk about the tripartite equation “the army of a people and resistance”, then the last thing that Sheikh Naim came out is saying, “The resistance is part of the Taif constitution and stipulated there, and it is a charter, and there is no constitutional order to be discussed to vote, but rather requires consensus”, while the opponents of the “party” asked about the existence of the “Charter” when Hezbollah decided to launch two wars without return Lebanese or to the rest of the Lebanese components!
The opponents, Sheikh Naim, called for a careful reading of Taif’s texts to show that in 1990 he stipulated that “the government of the National Accord had set a detailed security plan for a year, aimed at gradually extending the authority of the Lebanese state over the entire Lebanese lands by its own forces, and announced the dissolution of all Lebanese and non -Lebanese militias, and handing over its weapons to the Lebanese state within six months that begin after the approval of the National Accord document”, and therefore did not mention the Taif Agreement. The word “resistance” was not excluded from the militia solution, but the coup described on Taif was in the time of the Syrian tutelage, then the coup was made to Resolution 1701 and its feeds, and it is not true that the two presidents Aoun and Salam are the two coupals. Consequently, Hezbollah’s weapon was supposed to be delivered, as did the “Lebanese Forces”, the Progressive Socialist Party and the “Amal Movement” since 1991 and join the state train instead of modifying the facts and continuing to carry weapons under the pretext of “resistance”.
It remains that the protest movements of the Shiite duo supporters in the street cannot develop in light of the firm decision of the Lebanese army to prevent them from leaving the borders of the southern suburbs to the sensitive areas surrounding it Christian or Sunni, and that the threat to deal with the decision of the August 5 session to limit the weapon as if it does not exist is the director of the party who will seek as much as it can to prevent the application of the decision.
