Join us in monitoring the Iranian diesel’s path from Iran to Lebanon, and try in vain to find a place for the Lebanese state in this path:
The Iranian diesel departs from one of Iran’s ports, reaches the port of Banias in Syria, transported through tankers and crosses the Syrian-Lebanese border through illegal crossings, reaches the warehouses of the “Amana” company, which is affiliated with Hezbollah.
Whoever wants to buy Iranian diesel pays “Fresh Dollars” at “Qard Al-Hassan” and obtains a receipt to present it to Al-Amanah Fuel Company, which delivers him the amount of diesel according to what is on the receipt. It is worth noting that Al-Amanah Company has 29 gas stations.
Has anyone noticed the “appearance” of the Lebanese state at any of this path’s stations?
No trace for the state! No inspection for the diesel before letting it in, and whether it conforms to the specifications or not?
No presence for the customs, to collect fees.
What sovereignty are they talking about?
But what is surprising, is that there are still people in Lebanon who marvel at such a performance!
Isn’t the introduction of diesel fuel part of the entring Iran, or Iran’s entry into Lebanon?
Before the diesel, and during the process, the Iranian medicine entered, and still is.
And the same regarding Iranian weapons.
Before and during it, “Fresh Dollar”, entered Lebanon. Didn’t Hassan Nasrallah say in one of his speeches that he is bringing Dollars into Lebanon?
Whoever does not acknowledge his flaws, his flaws kill him
Iranian diesel is a detail and a small chapter from a large book called “Iran’s Control of Lebanon” with cover from the current era and from successive governments: from the government of Prime Minister Saad Hariri to the government of Prime Minister Hassan Diab all the way to the government of Prime Minister Najib Mikati, who only exchanged sadness for the introduction of Iranian diesel.
Hezbollah’s expansion is not limited to these facts. Wasn’t it the one who distributed “Sajjad” cards for foodstuffs? These cards entitle their holders to obtain foodstuffs, most of which are imported from Iran.
In short, the statelet posses:
An arsenal of weapons, importing and distributing medicine, fuel and foodstuffs, the Good Loan, Al-Kard Al-Hasan, which is practically the “central bank of the state,” and all of this is far from the state’s sight, and if it sees it, it buries its head in the sand.
What else does a “statelet” need to be a state?
Virtually nothing, for internally, it only needs a cover, which is available. Abroad, it needs practical recognition, which is available through the recognition of Syria and Iran.
In the face of all these facts, the new government, headed by President Najib Mikati, stands as a “false witness” to everything that is going on, and it is not able to take any initiative because any initiative, is in the hands of Hezbollah, which has the majority in it, and it can at any time,bring it down. .
Therefore, the “high ceiling of President Mikati in the objection is “sadness”, which does not bother Hezbollah and does not impede it in its projects.
