“..we want a brave president who is not afraid, who puts the national interest ahead of his fear, and secondly, more frankly, we want a president who cannot be bought or sold..more than that, I tell you, we do not want a president who covers the resistance, we do not want a president who protects the resistance, the resistance In Lebanon, it does not need cover, and the resistance in Lebanon does not need protection. What we want is a president who does not stab the resistance in the back, does not conspire once morest it, or sells it out. This is our natural right…” With these words, the Secretary General of Hezbollah, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, specified During his speech on the anniversary of Martyr’s Day On 11-11-2022, the first specifications that the resistance wants for the President of the Republic in Lebanon.
No doubt that Lebanon is a country of resistance And if some tried to suggest otherwise and tried to raise the voice sometimes to object to the deterrent weapon of the Israeli enemy, and if some tried to criticize the resistance claiming that it bears responsibility for the current situation in the country, and what is certain is that the Lebanese people, in their majority, are a resistant people who do not accept rapprochement with the Israeli enemy. Sects and sects believe that the Zionist entity is their first enemy, and they do not allow any way to meet with it under any heading.
This is in principle, but in the current reality, those who have foreign agendas and are hostile to the resistance may try to suggest that it is possible to deliver a president of the republic who works once morest the resistance, which implies working in the interest of the Israeli enemy by preoccupying the resistance internally at times with economic blockade and at other times with politics and at other times with mobile strife. Therefore, we see some riding the wave of criticism of the resistance and raising slogans that are far from reality The weapon of resistance that “Israel” fears Believing that he might reach Baabda Palace, and on this point specifically, Sayyed Nasrallah said during his speech on Martyr’s Day, “..when you come and tell me to elect Zayd or Omar, and he is from the beginning of the road discussing with you the resistance and the weapons of the resistance, and in Lebanon there are a thousand files that need treatment And he skipped all the files and came here, which means we started wrong, guys…”.
In fact, there is a figure hostile to the resistance. When you hear that her name has been put forward to discuss the presidential elections, she rushes to appear on the screens to make interventions regarding the necessity of withdrawing the weapons of the resistance and how to do so, and to bet on some methods to besiege it. These first aim to raise their shares on the personal level and consider that they are “serious” names to reach the presidency. And secondly, they are expressing what they dream of withdrawing the weapons of the resistance Even if it was at the expense of Lebanon’s interest.
And regarding all this said the expert in strategic affairs, Dr. Ali Diet The “president in Lebanon must be consensual par excellenceAnd he asked, “But should it be in accordance with the red lines that each team draws according to its size, or with glamorous names and addresses, according to what the Saudi ambassador broadcasts, who appears at every entitlement to succeed the Lebanese among themselves under various titles and pretexts?”
In an interview with Al-Manar TV website, Hamieh explained that “the resistance and its allies want a president at the level of a nation, not a sect, so that he is neither weak nor afraid nor sold or bought, nor stabs the resistance in the back.” He added, “These demands come from a side that made sacrifices and gifted victories to all of Lebanon.” While the other team calls for sovereignty at the level of embassies and by submitting to the decision-making capitals.”
While Hamiyah called for agreement between the various forces on a name for a new president for the republic, he pointed out that “work must be done to set deadlines for any upcoming maturity, so that all kinds of procrastination, whether Regarding the presidential election Or something else.” And he added, “We have come to believe that people are tired of waiting, and their pockets have emptied, except for a few.” He pointed out that “vacuum, submissiveness, and wasting time have become a fatal affair for the last elements of the nation’s advancement,” and he continued, “elect a president of the republic before we search for a Scattered homeland.
