Today Israel decided to carry out a massacre of civilians,

it decided to carry out mobile massacres with prior insistence and determination.

Today Israel decided to show off its power,

it decided to terrorize all Lebanese people,

it decided to weaken all Lebanese people,

that since you do not want to hand over your weapons to Hezbollah, okay,

look what is going to happen to you. Today we do not want to,

and it is not the time, to say the blame is on whom and how and why.

Let Iran go to hell, and Israel and America and Trump, let them all go to hell,

let them all go to hell. But we have a question, why are we abandoned like this?

Why are we abandoned like this? Where is the state, where is the authority?

As a Lebanese today,

why do I not have anyone in power to tell me whether the agreement included me as

Lebanon or not?

Why do I have to wait like an orphan,

chasing after the Pakistani and after the

American and after the Israeli to know whether this agreement included me or not?

Why is there no one in the state to tell me this agreement did not include me?

Why did no one tell me,“ Be careful,

the agreement did not include you, and Israel might go crazy”

And let the world fall on our heads?

Where are this country's presidents?

Why is there no one among them to tell us if this agreement included us or not and

explain to us what is happening?

There are more than 90 martyrs so far,

my God, there are hundreds of wounded.

Nabih Berri is telling us the agreement included us, so if it did,

why is this happening to us?

And after all that has happened to us, why are the three presidents

not gathered and on full alert at this moment to take a single,

unified position on what is happening?

Whatever this unified position is, take it and put an end to this.

Take one unified position, whatever it may be, with Iran, with Israel,

with peace, with war, with neutrality. Just take a unified position,

make us feel that you are up to at least

one percent of this disaster. But excuse me, we did not clap for half an hour at the

inauguration speech so that,

in the end, the president of the republic talks to us about the installment.

Sorry, we did not clap for that.

It has been a year and a half for you, it has been a year and a half that the

president of the republic is saying,“ I want to do and I want to do,

but not now and it is not the time.” So what then?

Do you see where we have ended up? Let the Speaker

of Parliament explain to us what his position is. Since the start of the war,

we have known nothing about Speaker Nabih Berri’s position.

They say he feels let down by Hezbollah,

so are you let down or are you with what’s happening? Someone explain it to us.

The prime minister takes positions and

cannot carry them out because no one is with him, so why are you now not in a state

of emergency? Either you take a unified position in the name of

Lebanon or you resign. There are 90 martyrs so far,

until now I do not know how many are still under the rubble,

there are hundreds of wounded,

there are dead children, there are children looking for their parents.

How can you leave us like this? Come on, is it possible that we waited for

Avichay to tell us what happened in Ain Saadeh?

Is it possible there was no army, no Interior Ministry,

no security forces to tell us what the story is? And we still do not

understand what happened.

So could one of you please be so kind as to tell us what exactly the

situation is today? What is happening now? Why is this happening?

Are we in on the agreement or not? So is this day only…

And the truce starts tomorrow and they’re escalating for the sake of the truce?

Or did this scene just happen,

and Beirut has now become right at the heart of events, a daily target?

So what about Achrafieh and Saifi and Dora and Dbayeh? How are we supposed to

know what one can do, say? What can anyone even say? What can we even say?

What can we say? What can we feel? Today we have nothing to say,

we have no analysis, and maybe there is not even any need anymore for analysis.

Today there is no episode, we have no stance, it is definitely not the time to

criticize anyone,

it is definitely only the time to tell the state, do something, we are dying,

we are being exterminated. The only word we came out to say in today’s episode

is mercy for the martyrs

and mercy for all of us.
