NNA - Loyalty to the Resistance bloc MP, Kamel Al-Rifai, described the wave of attacks which had been recently shaking some Lebanese areas as targeting the entire nation and not a specific political side.
Interviewed by the Voice of Lebanon radio station, the lawmaker said it was high time for the Lebanese to rally around the military institution and help it deter the swelling state of chaos.
He touted "cooperation between the security forces and the citizens to salvage the existing situation which is crowded with all sorts of strife, as well as regional and international intelligence apparatuses working to foment discord in Lebanon."
The lawmaker said that Hezbollah was adopting special security measures in its areas of dominance, a thing which allowed the party to dismantle a number of bombs.
Moreover, Rifai snubbed accusations saying that Hezbollah's involvement in the Syrian conflict has spilled the current rocky situation into Lebanon.
"Fingers of accusation are pointed towards Hezbollah whether it's involved in the Syrian crisis or not," he corroborated, warning that all what's being said in this regard is only widening the internal schism.
