Running scared in Lebanon

Nadim Gemayel, the son of assassinated Lebanese President Bashir Gemayel (pictured below - he was assassinated for seeking peace with Israel), is clearly afraid of Hezbullah. As a result, he is trying to shift the blame for the assassination of Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik al-Hariri to Syria.

The son of former Lebanese president Bashir Gemayel, Phalange MP Nadim Gemayel said on Sunday during an interview with Voice of Lebanon (VOL) that “The assassinations of Lebanese leaders stopped when Syria decided to stop them.”

“There is a certain party that is targeted and another that is responsible,” he said stressing that the party that was targeted was March 14 figures and Syria was behind the assassinations

Commenting on the current impasse he said:

“The Lebanese situation is delicate… Hezbollah is capable of paralyzing state institutions.”

Gemayel added that Hezbollah should know that “its weapons will not scare us.”

“We will not allow Hezbollah to control Lebanon… and at the same time, we want to live together in the same country.”
The good news is that hopefully Lebanon's internal strife will keep them too busy to try to attack Israel.

As long as they attack each other, they won't take out on Israel. May the feuds in Lebanon never end!

Heh
