Lebanon... Between the Hammer of the International Politicians and the Anvil of the Regional and Local followers
(Translated)

It wasn’t long after the arrival of Saad Ad-Deen Al-Hariri in Lebanon on 14/02/2016 in remembrance of the anniversary of his father’s killing when events began to escalate and in particular stemming from Saudi which announced on 19/02/2016 the cancellation of what remained of the aid it had been providing to arm the Lebanese army and the internal security forces. Indeed, it even undertook a host of financial and banking measures to put a limit to financial investments in Lebanon. All of that was based upon the Lebanese positions that contravened the ‘Arab consensus’ in respect to the stance towards the issue of Syria, Iran and its party in Lebanon. This consensus was made in the foreign minister conference of the Arab League convened in Cairo 10/01/2016 which followed the attack upon the Saudi embassy and consulate in Iran undertaken by angry protesters as a result of the Saudi execution of Sheikh Nimr An-Nimr...

The activity in Lebanon cannot be isolated from the newly occurring regional events and stances and this is particularly the case in respect to Saudi. This has been since King Salman Bin Abdul Aziz assumed authority, who is representative of the wing of the ruling family loyal to America. This matter is what encouraged the United States to rely upon it in regards to the task of Yemen and now we have the US utilising Saudi in respect to the issue of the revolution of Shaam under a number of different designations in order to implement the American policy within the region. This is just as it made use of and continues to make use of Iran and its followers. As such, the tasks and roles to implement its policy in the region is distributed between both parties in spite of the open exchanges of warnings that take place between the Iranian and Saudi regimes which is in addition to its utilisation of Russia in its plan to end the revolution of Shaam. It was from the fruits of this distribution or roles between Saudi and Iran and complimentary to them, that they be followed up in Lebanon by dialogue meetings between the Hezb (party) of Iran and the Future Movement. A complete cooperation arose amongst the two parties, since the formation of the Salam government, in respect to repressing the supporters of the revolution of Shaam in Lebanon and breaking the spirit of the region that interacted alongside the revolution, in spiteof all of the empty rhetoric between the two parties.

This was until Saad Ad-Deen Al-Hariri nominated a close friend of Bashar and one of the personalities that America relies upon in Lebanon, Suleiman Frangieh, for the presidency of the republic, which reaffirms that the dispute between the Saudi and Iranian sides is no more than an ineffectual and ineffective dispute! And it also confirms that both are working together in respect to implementing the American agenda. And in continuation and reiteration of the nature of the work of the politicians in Lebanon which is based upon personal interests and subservience to the foreigner, Samir Geagea the executive chairman of the Lebanese Forces (and fierce opponent of Frangieh) moved to support the nomination of Michel Aoun for the presidency to obstruct Hariri’s or in reality America’s initiative. America therefore resorted to taking a new step to break the deadlock related to the Lebanese presidential issue. This was timed in line with Hariri’s arrival on the 14th of February so that the atmospheres in Lebanon intensify and a new series of loud noises in the media to win points in accordance to the nature of the Lebanese politicians begins accompanied by resignations and threats or rifts and blowing matters out of proportion in addition to running to the doors of the embassies, convening meetings and ingratiating and tempered words.

This in the case where infuriating and stoking the atmospheres and generating political and security climates to apply pressure upon the different parties are from the political styles employed by America in respect to its policy in Lebanon. The nearest example of such heated atmospheres is what Lebanon witnessed in 2008 when America brought the situation to the verge of eruption which at that time was manifested in the Hezb of Iran entering the capital of Beirut with its weapons in what became known as the 7th of April events, which was a preamble for the different groups to gather in Doha (Qatar) and reach agreement over Michel Soleiman becoming the president of the republic in spite of all of the constitutional obstacles existing at that time!

And here we have America today returning to this method of heating and stoking the atmospheres (politically now and possibly security related in the future) in Lebanon via its men; the Saudi and Iranian men in Lebanon. This is to apply pressure upon all of the different groups to push them towards electing a president for the republic whom it will name at the time that it views to be appropriate. That is all connected to America, its allies and its followers’ movements in respect to the issue of Shaam and perhaps in respect to restoring a form to the region which includes the Lebanese entity...

O People of Lebanon: You have seen with clear sight and it has been main abundantly clear to you the failure of this entity established by France and later inherited by Britain and then the United States which it entrusted for decades to the care of the Assad family. Then after them they made the matter dependent upon Iran in respect to confronting the Islamic Ummah that was rising up against its agents. This inherited failure from grandfather to father is without exception a failure in respect to all aspects and affairs of life; from water to electricity and the provision of sustenance... leading to the drowning of the land and Beirut, its capital, in particular into heaps of rubbish, in what has become an intractable crisis in terms of looking for a solution, whilst it represents, in the countries of the world, the most basic and simplest of aspects of looking after the people’s affairs. But here they have led Lebanon to being classified as one of the most cancer ridden and afflicted countries in the world!

O People of Lebanon: Are you waiting for any of those politicians to bring an end to the country’s problems!

They are nothing more than cheap tools to accomplish the ends of the world’s major states and regional regimes tied to them. They expend your blood and wealth cheaply in that to preserve their positions and gains. The very least that you can do is to remove them from your dictionary of solutions so don’t provide them with any appearance of popularity upon your streets or at the ballot boxes. Otherwise you will be their partners in their crimes and the usurpation of the land and its exploitation in the conspiracies of the international and regional tyrants. And do not think that by leaning towards them that you will be avoiding the harm that they will bring upon you like the harm that their fathers and masters brought to you before. And it was said in the past: ‘Is the sheep harmed by being skinned after its slaughter?!’

O People of Lebanon: Direct your faces towards the lands of Shaam and the historical transformation that is taking place there which has reached the level causing your enemies to gather together all of their power and energy to combat it. That is because the lands of Shaam represent your natural real place of extension. It represents your origin and your roots imprinted firmly in history whilst you are the protectors of its borders. Consequently, if goodness springs out of lands of Shaam you would have gained from its goodness. This is whilst you have gained anything from Sykes, Picot and Gouraud thorns, spikes and torments. So do not let this goodness pass you by because your land, the land of Shaam, is the land which is there in no goodness in it, there will be no goodness in other than it, in accordance to the Hadeeth of the Messenger of Allah (saw).

And verily Hizb ut Tahrir which is working amongst you, you are acquainted with it and it is acquainted with you, supplicates to Allah to bestow upon it and upon you with His victory with haste. It is the rightly guided Khilafah "Caliphate" (Caliphate) upon the path of the Prophethood that will bring together the lands and the people, and will end their being held to ransom to the western colonialist, so that Lebanon and all of the lands will return to being a beacon of goodness, light, justice and tranquillity, with politicians of the first degree who do not ransom themselves to the West or the East and work to take care of your affairs as Allah ‘Azza Wa Jalla loves for you and is pleased with.

(هَذَا بَيَانٌ لِّلنَّاسِ وَهُدًى وَمَوْعِظَةٌ لِّلْمُتَّقِينَ وَلاَ تَهِنُوا وَلاَ تَحْزَنُوا وَأَنتُمُ الأَعْلَوْنَ إِن كُنتُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ)

“This [Qur'an] is a clear statement to [all] the people and a guidance and instruction for those conscious of Allah.So do not weaken and do not grieve, and you will be superior if you are [true] believers” [Aali ‘Imraan: 138-139].
