Hizbullah”s Arms Distinctly Political, Hindering National March Forward
Phalange leader Amin Gemayel described Hizbullah”s arms as a problem saying it remains to be distinctly political in hindering the country”s national progress.
"The problem today is in Hizbullah”s arms, which are distinctly political because [they] are hindering the national march forward and are in control of the internal political game, " Gemayel said on Sunday during an event in which he placed the founding stone for a Phalange party center at Kfar Abida.
Gemayel added that the Phalange”s stance is not that of a political, but a patriotic "because we consider the existence of arms a threat to democracy."
"Who is paying money? And where are these arms coming from? This is a violation of national sovereignty," he said.
The Phalange leader added that his party went through the last parliamentary election to defend the country”s cause and democracy.
"The battle of forming the next cabinet is to safeguard democracy and sovereignty," Gemayel said.
