Jarba: Hezbollah’s Smuggling of Weapons Is Aimed At Terrorizing the Lebanese People

Ahmad Jarba, head of the Syrian Coalition, said that Hezbollah has been smuggling weapons from Syria to Lebanon to terrorize the Lebanese people and not for another goal.” Jarba also said that Hezbollah’s response to the Israeli air raids on its positions is the same response of the Assad regime that has for more than thirty years been vowing to retaliate in the “appropriate time and place” to Israeli air raids. Fayez Sarah, member of the political committee, said that “terrorist Hezbollah’s abstention from retaliating to the Israeli air strikes is not new, as this party has been following a policy of subjection and cowardice disguised in political wisdom is the same policy that has been adopted by the tyrannical Assad regime.” Furthermore, Sarah points out that “these repeated Israeli strikes lay bare all allegations of resistance which the militia of the Assad regime and Hezbollah employ to hammer home their political agenda in the region. It is a shame that Hezbollah consider their main battle is in Yabrood and not in Tel Aviv. Hezbollah’s turning a blind eye for air strikes launched by the Israeli occupation confirms that their armed presence is not meant to deter the occupation, but to implement the political agendas of the Israeli occupation through destroying Syria and killing the Syrian people.” Terrorist militias of Hezbollah intensified their attacks on Utaiba in Eastern Ghouta after the Israeli air raids on Hezbollah’s targets in Lebanon.
