This is due to Hizbullah&#8217;s growing influence on all of the state&#8217;s centers [of power], and especially since the election of Hizbullah&#8217;s ally, General Michel 'Aoun, as president&#8230; [Foreign Minister] Bassil is providing further evidence for the claim that the Israelis are selling to the Americans and Europeans, that any future war on Hizbullah must encompass all of Lebanon, and that Lebanon as a whole must be placed under the weight of sanctions, since its political echelons, and the state and a whole, are partners of Hizbullah.&#8221;<a name=\"_ednref14\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.memri.org\/reports\/lebanon-criticism-against-hizbullah-dragging-country-war-sake-iran-and-against-lebanese#_edn14\">[14]<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Lebanese Journalist: The Decisions Rest With President 'Aoun, Foreign Minister Bassil And Hizbullah, While PM Al-Hariri Can Do Nothing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Al-Nahhar<\/em>\u00a0columnist Ibrahim Haidar wrote: &#8222;The political developments following the Israeli attack on the Dahia placed [the issue of] war on the agenda&#8230; The position of President Michel 'Aoun indicates that he is once again involving himself in this issue, in coordination with Hizbullah, whereas Prime Minister Sa&#8217;d Al-Hariri is trying to join in and to act in the international arena by condemning the aggression and urging international community to press Israel to stop its attacks. Al-Hariri tried to balance the official position by adding his voice to that of the [other] authorities, but it seems that \u2013 as a political source claimed \u2013 the decision is in the hands of the [tripartite] alliance of Hizbullah, 'Aoun and the head of the Free Patriotic Movement, Gebran Bassil. But the point against Al-Hariri is that he is unable to impose his position, as is supposed to happen in the state when it is faced with an escalation in the region.&#8221;<a name=\"_ednref15\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.memri.org\/reports\/lebanon-criticism-against-hizbullah-dragging-country-war-sake-iran-and-against-lebanese#_edn15\">[15]<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><a name=\"_edn1\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.memri.org\/reports\/lebanon-criticism-against-hizbullah-dragging-country-war-sake-iran-and-against-lebanese#_ednref1\">[1]<\/a>\u00a0Elnashra.com, September 2, 2019.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"_edn2\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.memri.org\/reports\/lebanon-criticism-against-hizbullah-dragging-country-war-sake-iran-and-against-lebanese#_ednref2\">[2]<\/a>\u00a0<em>Al-Nahhar<\/em>\u00a0(Lebanon), August 29, 2019.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"_edn3\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.memri.org\/reports\/lebanon-criticism-against-hizbullah-dragging-country-war-sake-iran-and-against-lebanese#_ednref3\">[3]<\/a>\u00a0Elnashra.com, August 21, 2019.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"_edn4\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.memri.org\/reports\/lebanon-criticism-against-hizbullah-dragging-country-war-sake-iran-and-against-lebanese#_ednref4\">[4]<\/a>\u00a0Mobile.twitter.com\/DRSAMIRGEAGEA\/status, September 1, 2019.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"_edn5\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.memri.org\/reports\/lebanon-criticism-against-hizbullah-dragging-country-war-sake-iran-and-against-lebanese#_ednref5\">[5]<\/a>\u00a0Elnashra.com, August 17, 2019.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"_edn6\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.memri.org\/reports\/lebanon-criticism-against-hizbullah-dragging-country-war-sake-iran-and-against-lebanese#_ednref6\">[6]<\/a>\u00a0<em>Al-Jumhouriyya<\/em>\u00a0(Lebanon), August 17, 2019.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"_edn7\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.memri.org\/reports\/lebanon-criticism-against-hizbullah-dragging-country-war-sake-iran-and-against-lebanese#_ednref7\">[7]<\/a>\u00a0Mobile.twitter.com\/jerrymahers\/status, September 1, 2019.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"_edn8\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.memri.org\/reports\/lebanon-criticism-against-hizbullah-dragging-country-war-sake-iran-and-against-lebanese#_ednref8\">[8]<\/a>\u00a0<em>Al-Nahhar<\/em>\u00a0(Lebanon), August 21, 2019.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"_edn9\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.memri.org\/reports\/lebanon-criticism-against-hizbullah-dragging-country-war-sake-iran-and-against-lebanese#_ednref9\">[9]<\/a>\u00a0Elnashra.com, August 27, 2019.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"_edn10\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.memri.org\/reports\/lebanon-criticism-against-hizbullah-dragging-country-war-sake-iran-and-against-lebanese#_ednref10\">[10]<\/a>\u00a0Twitter.com\/FaresSouaid, August 26, 2019.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"_edn11\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.memri.org\/reports\/lebanon-criticism-against-hizbullah-dragging-country-war-sake-iran-and-against-lebanese#_ednref11\">[11]<\/a>\u00a0UN Resolution 1701, of August 11, 2006, calls for the immediate cessation by Hizbullah of all attacks and the immediate cessation by Israel of all offensive military operations, as part of a permanent ceasefire along the Israel-Lebanon border and a long-term solution that includes the disarmament of all armed groups in Lebanon, the extension of the Lebanese government&#8217;s authority over all Lebanese territory;\u00a0 security arrangements in the area between the Israel-Lebanese border and the Litani river, which will be free of any armed personnel, assets and weapons other than those of the government of Lebanon and of UNIFIL; and expansion of the UNIFIL forces, and an embargo on the sale or supply of arms and related material to Lebanon except as authorized by its government (unscr.com, August 11, 2006).<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"_edn12\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.memri.org\/reports\/lebanon-criticism-against-hizbullah-dragging-country-war-sake-iran-and-against-lebanese#_ednref12\">[12]<\/a>\u00a0<em>Al-Hayat<\/em>\u00a0(Dubai), September 2, 2019.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"_edn13\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.memri.org\/reports\/lebanon-criticism-against-hizbullah-dragging-country-war-sake-iran-and-against-lebanese#_ednref13\">[13]<\/a>\u00a0<em>Al-Nahhar<\/em>\u00a0(Lebanon), August 20, 2019.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"_edn14\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.memri.org\/reports\/lebanon-criticism-against-hizbullah-dragging-country-war-sake-iran-and-against-lebanese#_ednref14\">[14]<\/a>\u00a0<em>Al-Nahhar<\/em>\u00a0(Lebanon), August 17, 2019.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"_edn15\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.memri.org\/reports\/lebanon-criticism-against-hizbullah-dragging-country-war-sake-iran-and-against-lebanese#_ednref15\">[15]<\/a>\u00a0<em>Al-Nahhar<\/em>\u00a0(Lebanon), August 28, 2019.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>W sytuacji niedawnych napi\u0119\u0107 mi\u0119dzy Izraelem a Hezbollahem w Libanie pojawi\u0142a si\u0119 krytyka tej organizacji, a tak\u017ce przyw\u00f3dc\u00f3w pa\u0144stwa za popieranie Hezbollahu i umo\u017cliwianie mu dzia\u0142ania.
