“I urge the Minister of Information to follow his ethics…. and I place my faith in his patriotic sense to recognize the situation and the interests of Lebanon and the Lebanese, rather than strike the government.” This is what Prime Minister Najib Mikati said on the first day after returning from the Glasgow summit, and after receiving backing from the world’s most powerful leaders, including France and the United States of America. What was Minister George Kordahi’s response?
So far, he’s remained deafeningly silent, as though unconcerned about what the Prime Minister said. However, sources told Sawt Beirut International that Kordahi is not looking forward to step down, not even considering it. It is obvious that Kordahi is proceeding in this regard at the same rate as Hezbollah’s escalation in the Saudi problem. What Naim Qassem’s Deputy Secretary-General said yesterday is reprehensible because it distorts the facts. It’s enough to say that Qassem believes Saudi Arabia is undertaking an illegitimate attack against Lebanon, and that this aggression can continue because there is no ceiling or control over it. I wish Naim Qassem had been more circumspect and patient before speaking out against his arrogance. The aggression, called “Sheikh Naim,” is perpetrated by one opponent against another. In our dictionary, Israel is the country that occasionally attacks Lebanon. Has Saudi Arabia, like Israel, become an enemy state for you and your party? Furthermore, Sheikh Naim, all of Saudi Arabia’s actions are a result of your party. You’re the ones that meddled in Saudi matters by backing and training the Houthis in Yemen. And you were the ones planning to attack the Gulf’s security through exposed and well-known terrorist cells and operations.
And it was you who triggered the recent Saudi decisions by taking control of the Lebanese decision, as well as your insistence on turning Lebanon into a republic stripped of its autonomy and entirely subjugated to the Iranian Republic of Wilayat Al Faqih. As a result, do not talk about Saudi aggression against Lebanon, Honorable Deputy Secretary-General of Hezbollah, because you are the ones who have carried out several aggressions against Saudi Arabia and the Gulf states.
