Moussawi: March 14 Camp Too Weak to Be Able to Materialize Mottos

Loyalty to Resistance bloc MP Nawwaf al-Moussawi on Sunday noted that "the March 14 camp does not aim through its campaign to materialize the mottos it is calling for, as it knows that it is too weak to implement them."

Their "real motto is 'either we rule or we sow destruction by inciting sectarian strife,'" Moussawi charged.

He accused the rival camp of "trying to undermine the national economy, harm security and destroy national independence by threatening to put Lebanon under Chapter 7 (of the U.N. Charter) through the so-called Special Tribunal for Lebanon."

"These slogans and objectives are mere illusions," Moussawi claimed.

He stressed that "the split in Lebanon is neither factional nor sectarian as some are trying to depict, it is rather a political split, as the battle is between those who are with Lebanon's independence and those who want to make (U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Near East Affairs Jeffrey) Feltman the ruler of Lebanon."

"The battle is between those who want Lebanon strong and immune in the face of the Zionist aggression and those who want to sign the May 17 Accord once again," Moussawi added.

He noted that "the cabinet change process has managed to open the door for change aimed at ending despotism and concluding the battle of combating rogue and corrupt civil servants."

This change "aims to liberate the country from the U.S.-Israeli mandate guising itself as the so-called STL, which is a blatant attack against independence, sovereignty, freedom, dignity and security."
