Gemayel: "We Are Not Ashamed of Getting Israel Support"

Gemayel: "We Are Not Ashamed of Getting Israel Support"

06/09/2010 Phalanges (Kataeb) bloc MP Sami Gemayel said his party wasn't embarrassed of getting Israel's Support at a previous stage.

"We're not ashamed of getting Israel's support against the Syrians when they were in Lebanon.

We believe that supporting Lebanon is the most important thing."

In an interview with the Lebanese Daily Sada Al-Balad published on Sunday Gemayel "warned" that there are two "dangerous issues" that have been facing Lebanon recently, "the Palestinian refugees issue and Hezbollah's weapons".

Gemayel doubted that national dialogue would yield any results Hezbollah's weapons issue.

He also called for a “weapons-free” country adding that all arms in Lebanon must be under the government's control.

Development and Liberation bloc MP Hani Qobeissi responded on Monday saying that "admitting to spying for Israel necessitates lots of shame".

Also Development and Liberation bloc MP Kassem Hashem retorted to Gemayel saying: "When some people feel no shame of their connection with the Zionist enemy and get support from it to fight our brothers and partners in this country, how can we be surprised by the persistence in adopting the policy of yielding to an enemy, a killer, and an occupier?"
