Khairallah Khairallah

The loss of General Wissam al-Hassan is certainly a great loss to Lebanon and the Arab security, an indispensable loss. Wissam al-Hassan wasn’t just a Lebanese and Arab officer who did his duty confronting the threats against Arab and Lebanese security. He was also a political mind, aware of the threats to which Lebanon and the regional security are exposed. These threats start with what Israel and its networks represent, including Aoun’s network in Lebanon, arriving to Iran with its instruments, and the tools of its instruments. Maybe the most dangerous thing about the Iranian orientation is the risk caused by Tehran’s constant bet on raising sectarian strife, and on the current Syrian regime which only aims at trading Arabs and Arabians, Palestine and Palestinians, and Lebanon and Lebanese. The Syrian regime trade all those in order to keep the power within a family which considers the Syrian citizens slaves, and Syria is just a ranch. This family wants to rule Syria through slogans like resistance and opposition, and the direct and indirect Iranian support, while all of this is only a cover for a minor sectarian rule which was transformed through time into a family rule that serves the Iranian project in the region. The Lebanese know very well, may be more than enough, who assassinated Wissam al-Hassan. But there are two things that form the bigger picture which can’t skip the mind by any means and in any time. The first thing is that the main problem of the nation is Hezbollah. It is an Iranian, sectarian and militia corps. Whatever else is fooling the people and the Lebanese? Illegal Hezbollah groups are what displaces Lebanese from their country. What makes the south, Bekaa, Beirut, Jebel Lubnan and north underdeveloped areas is Hezbollah and nothing else. What puts the country at stake is Hezbollah. Hezbollah planted the seeds of sectarian and religious strife, divided Sunnis, Shiites and Drouze who became a threatened minority. Was it a coincidence that Michel Aoun wastes the blood of Wissam al-Hassan days before his assassination? Was it a coincidence that the least of Syrian regime officers incited against martyr President Rafiq al-Hariri for months in preparation to explode its convoy? Hezbollah replaced the Palestinian, Christian and Muslim militia corps, which originated from Syria. This group had flown to Lebanon more than 45 years ago, since Hafez al-Assad was Minister of Defence between 1966 and 1970. Even before al-Assad took over all the power, the only mission of the Syrian regime was to fill Lebanon with weapons to develop security hotbeds uncontrolled by the Lebanese state. Preparations for crimes, assassinations, and explosions against Lebanon and Lebanese are held in these hotbeds. If it was not for these hotbeds, the assassination of Rafiq al-Hariri and his companions wouldn’t have been prepared, and there wouldn’t have been a place for the murder of Pier Gemayel, who was killed in daylight. Yes, the current government under the president Najib Mikati should be gone. We should get rid of it first, and before any other thing because it is the fruit of the coup applied by Hezbollah, with its weapons against the chests of the Lebanese upon an Iranian- Syrian request when President Saad al-Hariri refused submission to the Iranian and Syrian conditions. These conditions start with al-Hariri’s surrendering to the murderer of his father, apologising to him and putting his destiny and the destiny of his family and companions in his hands, like Waleed Jumblatt did in 1977. The conditions end with confirming Lebanon as an Iranian colony with the excuse of defending Iranian national security over the expense of Lebanon’s future and the future of the Lebanese. The Lebanese are not supposed to forget for a second Hezbollah is only an instrument used by Syria and Iran. It was a tool to make deals which both sides dreamed of with the American Greater Satin, and the Israeli Smaller Satin on the expense of Lebanon, the Lebanese and the future of their sons. What the Lebanese shouldn’t forget is the other side of the bigger story, which is the revolution in Syria. Lebanon’s future is connected to what happens on the Syrian territory and the popular revolution against a killing regime that refuses to leave before destroying every rock, every Syrian village or town or city. In better words, it’s better for the Lebanese not to go into details. This doesn’t mean tolerating a huge crime as assassinating Wissam al-Hassan, with all that it represents on the national and Arab levels. It means that it is most required to fail the Syrian – Iranian plot. What both regimes are after is moving the fire to Lebanon, which they will fail to do because they ignore the size, depth and expansion of the popular revolution in Syria. This forced Lakhdar Brahimi to come to Beirut a few days before the assassination of Wissam al-Hassan. That’s what made him warn about the fire eating everything outside Syria as well. What he didn’t say is that the Syrian regime wants to explode the region, believing that it is the only way for his salvation, and that there isn’t anything else to count on after losing Syria. The Lebanese people have the duty to avoid falling into this trap, which is one of the targets of the Syrian regime, its supporters and those who implement his tasks including assassinating al-Hassan on the Lebanese territory. -- The views expressed by the author do not necessarily represent or reflect the editorial policy of Arabstoday.
