#Lebanon and #Iraq protestors hitting the "Axis of the Resistance" stability in these two countries and pushing Prime Ministers in both countries to resign and lead the country towards instability.

#US and #SaudiArabia has lost #Syria but are still fighting in other theatres.

In #Lebanon, "Lebanese Forces" (pro-US/pro-Saudi) are leading the closure of the streets, arming themselves with right demands of the population but different objectives.

Moqtada al-Sadr leads protestors in #Iraq coz he is an ignorant opportunist falling into US/Saudi objectives

Neither in #Iraq nor in #Lebanon demands of protestors can be met in days but in many months. Therefore, protestors requests aim to destabilise the country and dismantle the power of the Parliament and the Cabinet of Ministers. Leaving no legislative of executive power = chaos

In #Iraq, many have been killed and still are in the street. In #Lebanon, it is not far form this kind of clashes between those willing to open the road - without disturbing protestors in squares - and other willing to go back to work and earn their living.

The aim in #Lebanon is to push #Hezbollah to the street and use its weapons so #Iran and #Hezbollah will be accused of "confiscating the country" to trigger external intervention.

Already Main Stream Media direct its accusation towards #Hezbollah and #Iran in #Lebanon.

In #Lebanon, many among those blocking the streets, particularly the "Leb Forces"(LF) right wing groups, asked citizens for their IDs, a deja vu situation in 1975 when the same LF (Khataeb then) triggered the 1975 civil war by killing Palestinians in Ein Rummaneh in a bus.

#Lebanon can no longer buy Medicine, fuel and other basic necessities for a simple reason: All these goods are imported and need swift payment through banks that are closed. Protestors requests to immediately impose reforms imposed closures of banks for fear of chaos.

Banks are afraid of people rushing to withdraw their savings, creating a monetary clash. Also the Governor of the Central Bank Riyad Salame is contributing to the crisis by saying the country needs days to collapse and accusing #Hezbollah of mounting a campaign against him.

PM @saadhariri offered his resignation but was rejected by the President, Speaker and many (not all) political parties. Hariri wants a Technocrat cabinet excluding #Hezbollah and @Gebran_Bassil. His demand was rejected, A technocrat gov doesn't need Hariri but another PM.

@saadhariri @Gebran_Bassil This almost-chaotic situation is not de-escalating because it is against a few local politic parties and regional and international players to reach a chaotic #Lebanon.

Naive activists and protestors believe in their (right) cause. But all "Arab spring" started with right causes

@saadhariri @Gebran_Bassil The Chief of the Army is allowing protestors to remain in the street. These represent a very small percentage of the 4 million Lebanese (the bullshit about 1 million in the street is not worth mentioning) and the Army chief wants to become a President.

@saadhariri @Gebran_Bassil Many interests to different players in #Lebanon are conflictive but some enemies meet on the objective to ask foreign intervention and to destabilise the country with one single blame: Corner and blame #Hezbollah.

@saadhariri @Gebran_Bassil All, w/o exception, articles in western press mention #Hezbollah when talking about the protests in #Lebanon to make it more attractive. Well, Hezbollah represents most Shia and is supported by many Christians but will not be removed for the simple reason: it is a Lebanese party

@saadhariri @Gebran_Bassil Are you all familiar with this "Fist" of the revolution? This is #Lebanon.

@saadhariri @Gebran_Bassil Guess what is the common word in this tweets? Social media is full of it.

I know one thing: The Lebanese are heading towards the unknown if they don't wake up, ask for reforms to be implemented and judge the cabinet after a deadline. Otherwise, next coverage is: #Lebanon.

@saadhariri @Gebran_Bassil PM @saadhariri is expected to announce his resignation in half an hour. But he will remain ad interim with the same government because his demands cannot be met. He will please those expecting #Lebanon to go into less stability.

@saadhariri @Gebran_Bassil PM @saadhariri has resigned, fading away from his responsibilities. His next destination:

Look for a girl less costly than $16 million.

@saadhariri @Gebran_Bassil Protestors will not leave the street with PM resignation. More street confrontations expected in #Lebanon.
