What concept of “neutrality” does the Maronite Patriarch propose in Lebanon?

The neutrality project and linking it to an international conference puts its hand on the Lebanese crisis. Move forward and open the door to a new conflict in Lebanon led by the Maronite Patriarchate, in the midst of a meeting of sympathizers of parties and political currents hostile to the project of State and resistance.

The word of the Maronite Patriarch Bishara Boutros Al-Rahi was clear and his goal clear, the slogans raised in the Bkerke Patriarchal building by the crowds were also clear. So, raising the chant of “Hezbollah is terrorist” in the heart of the building by this audience is not simple, based on the event itself and what was said about it and what was chanted.

The premises that justify this objective are to remove Lebanon from its reality on the conflict map and neutralize it as if it were an island isolated from its surroundings and its fateful problems.

The neutrality that the Patriarch defends is received and encouraged by those affected by the weapons of the resistance, and they are already part of a project that is not neutral and are involved in regional and international agendas that are not hidden from anyone, and not in fact. , I agree with the sovereignty and unity of Lebanon.

The question is, how can the call to neutralize Lebanon work in light of the conflict with “Israel”, which occupies part of Lebanon’s land and threatens to attack it and plunder its oil wealth? Does the demand for neutrality apply to the position on “Israel” and thus remove it from the category of enemy that threatens Lebanese identity and interests?

Why was the slogan “Hezbollah terrorist” raised on the patriarchal building?

In this context, Lebanese political writer Ghassan Saud said in an interview For Mayadin Net It was not “surprising that an anti-Hezbollah crowd shouted that it was a” terrorist “party, as they had previously expressed this position in various ways. What was strange, however, was that the Patriarch’s silence on these chants and his acceptance to transform the patriarchal edifice in a space to insult a Lebanese component in this way, and incite against it and the adoption of the American-Gulf-Israeli description. ”

Saud added that, “Once the Patriarch is silent about this chant, he accepts it. Therefore, it is a clear and open bias for a crowd against an audience, and for axis against axis,” considering that ” In this open alignment, the patriarch himself destroyed all the logic of neutrality that he defends. Knowing that the Bible says: (…) First remove the tree from your eyes, and then you will see well to remove the sting from sight. of your brother!

Consequently, according to Saud, the Patriarch should adhere to neutrality and force the masses in the building to be neutral, then consider inviting others to adhere to neutrality.

Saud: neutrality contradicts freedom

Saud noted that “the division today is between two axes: the first begins with Hezbollah, passes through Iran, Syria and Iraq, and ends in Russia and China. The second begins with us from the Future Movement, the Lebanese forces and some organizations, and it passes through Saudi Arabia, the Emirates and “Israel”, and ends in the United States. “

The war is between these two axes, according to Saud, pointing out that “whoever wants to neutralize Lebanon from one axis cannot be part of the other axis.”

He pointed out that “all those who were in Bkerke are part of the axis, they receive economic, media and moral support from the axis. Therefore, they cannot speak of neutrality because they are not neutral.”

The Lebanese political writer pointed out that “in Lebanon, very few are neutral, since political, social and economic positions are incompatible with neutrality, and whoever has an opinion cannot be neutral.” According to Saud, “Neutrality contradicts freedom, human rights and human nature. When you find a people killing and decide to be neutral, this means that you are without feelings and without dignity and you are not a person.”

Neutrality means surrendering and disarming

In response to the question “What does fairness mean?” Said one analyst Fields For military and security matters, Charles Abi Nader said: “Whoever seeks neutrality in Lebanon today in light of the conflict with the Israeli enemy is as if he is calling for surrender,” noting that “neutrality means disarming and disarming the capacity of have a sovereign position that protects Lebanon and preserves its wealth ”.

According to Abu Nader, “the main point of disagreement now, which may be hidden, is the Lebanese wealth that needs protection.”

He noted that “the one who will maintain neutrality is the international community that is putting economic pressure on Lebanon to allow it and behave as some Arab countries have followed the path of normalization.” According to Abu Nader, “the behavior on the Path of normalization means that there is settlement, and this is a message that we will create problems for them.” And we will give the formula for coexistence and perhaps we will return to civil war. ”

According to Abu Nader, Lebanon will be on the line for earthquakes and will stand alone, and will emphasize that Lebanon cannot fight or face these international and regional pressures, especially from “Israel” alone, but needs brothers to support and support it. , as he put it.

The same context said: “Even the Lebanese army cannot possess weapons that protect its sovereignty and protect its airspace from enemy penetrations,” adding that “the weak will always be the target. As it is not possible to remain neutral in the light of terrorist attacks in Lebanon, the latter needs resistance today. ”

What is the neutrality that is defended?

What is that impartiality that is defended? Those who ask for it are neutral in positions, options and policies? An activist on “Twitter” asked: “How can a country that hosts two million refugees between Syrians and Palestinians deviate from the events around it?”

If Lebanon had a ploy to decide, it would have been necessary to discuss the question of neutrality or not. But how can we search for what we are incapable of, even if it is shown to be correct?

Ahmed Zabad said: “The formation of the government, as the United States and Saudi Arabia want, is also considered neutral for a political party,” considering that Bkerke’s demands today “are the neutrality of supporting the oppressed against the oppressor.”

Turn away from his oppressed victory against the oppressor. I am referring to Saudi Yemen, and this is an order from the Saudi ambassador who supports Bkerke financially and morally. Disarm the resistance, under the pretext of arms only for the army, and this is an American and Israeli request. The formation of the government as the United States and Saudi Arabia want, and this is also the neutrality of a political party.
Summary # Neutrality Of the oppressor.
