"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. "

Tajaddod: This War Is Not Ours - This is Beirut

MP Michel Moawad, member of the Renewal Bloc (Tajaddod), accused Hezbollah of “dragging Lebanon into a war which is not ours, but the war of others on our land.”

In a press conference for the Renewal Bloc held on Friday, he affirmed that this war “is not defensive and was not decided by the Lebanese people through constitutional institutions.”

Moawad urged the Lebanese army to “take immediate and decisive action regarding the infiltration of fighters among the displaced persons who have left their villages to seek refuge in other regions,” as this poses “a danger to the hosting areas.”

The Tajaddod MP stated that “the Lebanese are the ones paying the price of this war, which has so far cost us billions of dollars at a time when our state is unable to secure the most basic needs.”

Blaming the pro-Iranian faction, Moawad held Hezbollah responsible for dragging the country into this war, which he described as a “suicidal operation.”
