"And I have found both freedom and safety in my madness, the freedom of loneliness and the safety from being understood, for those who understand us enslave something in us. But let me not be too proud of my safety. Even a Thief in a jail is safe from another thief. "

Hezbollah offensive in Qalamoun protects Assad, not Lebanon: Hariri- Daily Star

BEIRUT: Former Prime Minister Saad Hariri attacked HezbollahTuesday over its preparations for an anticipated large-scale battle in Syria's Qalamoun region against Nusra-led rebels, saying the fight is meant to protect the Syrian government, and not Lebanon.
“Media channels and some leaders in Lebanon have been ringing the bells for the Qalamoun hills battle, while the Syrian regime is silent,” Hariri said in a statement released by his media office.
“It is as if someone is trying to say that the anticipated battle is a Lebanese one on Syrian land, always under the pretext of a preemptive war on terrorist groups.”
Hariri said Hezbollah was “using the Lebanese borders” to wage a war that “only serves to protect the western wing of [President]Bashar Assad in light of the regime’s recent military defeats in many Syrian areas.”
