Withdraw... Either from the Council or from the Weapons

Members of "Hezbollah" raised their voices against their colleagues in the last parliamentary session, hurling accusations ranging from calling them vile, liars, and collaborators with Israel, and cursed the "authority" and its negotiations and the "framework agreement"... They strayed into discussions akin to "get lost," prompting the Speaker of the Parliament, Nabih Berri, to say: "What a shame."

The reason is their lack of logical or convincing answers to refute their responsibility in "losing Lebanon more than twenty-seven billion dollars, nearly nine thousand martyrs, over thirty thousand wounded, and more than a million displaced at the peak of the last war, and tens of thousands of destroyed homes, and more than 75 villages and cities, whose residents are still unable to return to their homes and livelihoods," according to what Prime Minister Nawaf Salam stated at the beginning of the session held a few days ago. This is due to the wars of support for Gaza and revenge for Khamenei.

However, all the intensity that characterized the "language" of the party's deputies was not accompanied by fiery stances that would be recorded in history when the confidence in the government they accuse of conspiring with the Zionist enemy against them was raised, which is subject to the command of the American "great Satan"... They withdrew from the session and escaped from the responsibility of making a decision that would obligate them, either to their public stances or to granting confidence to a government they are part of.

It seems that withdrawal has become the only option for the "party" officials, escaping from any confrontation, whether with the Israeli enemy who has exploited its crimes in supporting their foolishness, or with Lebanese who disagree with them, or even with those who adhere to their approach, and instead of confronting them with what they are in, they suffice with abandoning them, leaving these individuals to pay the price, either with their lives or their livelihoods and land.

Withdrawal has become an option, without any concern for stopping the assaults, liberating the land, knowing the identities and fates of the prisoners, and starting the reconstruction process in preparation for the return of the displaced to their villages. It is enough to hold the state responsible, which insists on remaining a part of it in both the legislative and executive branches... and refuses to bear responsibility as a party that insists on an illegal weapon outside the state, and on waging wars for the benefit of its Iranian operator... and of course without a national cover, content with a sectarian cover that is beginning to shift away.

Of course, there is no courage in the option of withdrawal; it has not even become a retreat into the future... either insults and threats in a street that no longer responds to the call, or drowning in silence incapable of explaining the successive defeats, remaining on the sidelines waiting for a miraculous change in the troubled regional equations.

But options are available for those who have their own decision, which either involves withdrawing from everything related to this state that incites against it with every crow of a rooster, or simply withdrawing from dependence on Iran and from the weapon... and returning to the homeland with transparent partnership...

The problem remains, as President Nawaf Salam said, "not in who lost their way, but in who knew their destination and convinced people that they were going somewhere else."
