Lebanese Politician Charles Jabbour, Spokesman Of The Lebanese Forces: Hizbullah Turns Its Weapons against Its Opponents Within Lebanon And Holds Us Captive With Its Stone-Age 'Resistance Ideology'

Lebanese politician Charles Jabbour, the spokesman of the Lebanese Forces, said in a January 29, 2022 interview on Jadeed TV (Lebanon) that Hizbullah turns its weapons against anyone in Lebanon who does not reach an understanding with it. He elaborated that Hizbullah is ready to blow up the cars of its opponents and to assassinate them. In addition, Jabbour said that Hizbullah and its leader, Hassan Nasrallah, know nothing about economics are the reason for Lebanon's economic deterioration, which he said has caused Lebanon's humiliation.

Charles Jabbour: "If you cannot reach understandings [with Hizbullah], it turns its weapons against you. As long as one group is ready to blow up your car, turn its weapons against you, or assassinate you — and the courts are yet to prove who assassinated a long list of martyrs... So people are afraid. They say: We don't need this.

"They know nothing about the economy. Once Nasrallah started talking about the economy, and nobody could understand anything. He does not understand the economy.

[...]

"Hizbullah is responsible for all the assassinations, for people carrying guns, and for all the security incidents. Nobody in Lebanon wants to carry guns.

[...]

"What happened to the dollar exchange rate? Our way of life has changed. The banks are closing down. Schools are closing down. People are leaving. People are being humiliated at the airports, and for what? [All] of us are human beings who want to live in dignity in this country. Who is preventing us from living in dignity? Hizbullah.

"Hizbullah holds us captive under a false resistance ideology from the Stone Age. Resistance against who in Yemen, Syria, and in Iraq? Leave us alone and go fight on your own. We do not want to fight alongside them."
