A Butcher's Tale: "... It was Siniora, not Hezbollah ..."

Via Friday-Lunch-Club

The 'Butcher' of Lebanon's Prime Minister Rachid Karami, Ehden, Ras Nhash, Dany Chamoun, Elias el Zayek, the Church of Saydet il Najat, ... and thousands of Christian & Muslim Lebanese, blamed the "failed state" of Lebanon on all others, ...!

".... Commenting on Nasrallah’s remarks, Geagea said the accusations “were unacceptable,” and claimed that a majority of the Lebanese people had rejected the Sayyed’s stances during the June 2009 parliamentary elections. The Hizbullah-led opposition won the popular vote in the 2009 election by a margin of over 100,000 ballots, but Lebanon’s sectarian power-sharing formula ensured the March 14 Forces’ victory. .....

“Hizbullah’s military wing did not push Israel to return Shebaa Farms to Lebanon,” Geagea said, adding that former Premier Fouad Siniora’s government tackled the issue with the right side which was the UN as Lebanon awaited Syria’s recognition of Lebanese sovereignty over the territory. (Does the year 2000' ring a bell O Dr. Geagea'?)
Geagea added that Nasrallah had anticipated discussions during national dialogue sessions regarding a national defense strategy during his latest speech, adding that the Sayyed announced a comprehensive confrontational plan on behalf of 4 million Lebanese citizens. “His speech is a comprehensive confrontational plan which is not the responsibility of his party but rather the Lebanese state since it affects the life of 4 million citizens who did not delegate to Nasrallah that responsibility during the June 2009 parliamentary elections,” he said.
"Back when the Lebanese Forces were toiling hard to build a 'state'"
Geagea added that Nasrallah had assumed before foreign states the Cabinet’s role which reflected negatively upon the Lebanese state’s image and made it appear like a “failed Lebanese state.”..."
