Lebanese Option Group slams Hizbullah
Head of the Lebanese Option Group (LOG) Ahmad al-Assad launched an attack against Hizbullah on Saturday saying the party “monopolized the decision-making of the Shiites in Lebanon.”
Speaking during a rally to mark Ashura in his hometown of Srifa, Assad said that Hizbullah was “alienating all other Lebanese Shiite voices and currents.”
“You demand partnership and a greater say in government decisions but you tend to overlook such demands within the Shiite community and tend to silence Shiite voices that contradict you,”
Assad said addressing Hizbullah. He added that “diversity and multiplicity have always been major characteristics of the Shiite community … and Hizbullah is working hard to undermine such a trait.”
