Nasrallah to Tackle Security Deployment in Dahieh in Televised Speech

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Hizbullah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah will make a televised speech on Monday to tackle the latest developments in Lebanon and the region.

Nasrallah's speech comes in light of security deployment in the party's stronghold in the southern suburbs of Beirut.

A joint force of 800 men composed of soldiers from the army and security services will begin their deployment on Monday in Dahieh, where they will take over security at checkpoints set up by Hizbullah in the wake of two bombings that hit its stronghold.

Informed sources told al-Joumhouria newspaper that the area is under the state's authority.

“The measures undertaken by Hizbullah in Dahieh was forced by the situation in an attempt to safeguard the residents of the area,” the sources said.

Hizbullah had set up its own security checkpoints in Beirut's southern suburbs after the bombings which wounded more than 50 people on July 9 and killed 27 and injured around 300 on August 15.

The Lebanese army is also present in the area and has a barracks in the Bir al-Abed neighborhood.

Hizbullah has found itself targeted in Lebanon over its involvement in Syria, where it has dispatched fighters to battle alongside President Bashar Assad's forces against rebels determined to topple him.

MP Mohammed Raad, head of the Loyalty to Resistance parliamentary bloc, stressed Sunday that Hizbullah “is the first party to welcome the decision of the state security agencies to assume their security missions in Beirut's southern suburbs.”

The choosing of the security men entering Dahyieh is very much like the security men appointed to the airport security ! Remember the uproar it had caused when the Hizb close security man was replaced at the airport after Joumblatt accused the Hizb of spying on people going through the airport security....The Siniora Gov had to cancel its decision then .....at gunpoint ! Enough of BS HA !!

Let us see what this really means. First, there are not enough Hezbollah fighters in Lebanon to do security work in Dahyieh.
Second, Dahyieh has been exposed and open to reprisal attacks from Syria without any thought given to the fact that the fighters are attacking another sovereign state. This is because Dahyieh is a statelet, run by Hezbollah up to now, with no Lebanese state presence.
With the LAF and ISF in Dahyieh, well now there is a state presence for Hezbollah to hide behinds so that those who would attack Hezbollah have to first think about killing Lebanese soldiers and security personnel.
This can easily be seen not as Hezbollah ceding security in its statelet, but using the Lebanese state security forces as its shield against future attack. The LAF and ISF go to Dahyieh not to replace Hezbollah, but to shield it from future attack. In this way, the Lebanese state has become the vassal of the Iranian state apparatus that has been transplanted on Lebanese soil.

Media in general should not advertise in advance for x or y giving a televised speech. They give importance to unimportant people.
