Bassil on August 4th: Lebanon's Future and Authority Failures

During a speech commemorating the events of August 7, the leader of the Free Patriotic Movement, Deputy Gebran Bassil, emphasized that freedom has a price. He stated that the resistance fighters of that era stood alone in confronting occupation and the political system that supported it, and that they did not resort to violence or weapons outside the framework of legitimacy. He clarified that his movement embodies the principle of peaceful struggle without any foreign agendas, defending Lebanon’s interests. Bassil remarked that those who adopt stances aligned with Israel or Syria remain free in their choices, but the movement remains nationalist and free in its defense of sovereignty and independence. He confirmed that the movement continued its struggle both within political institutions and externally, advocating for Lebanese rights—especially for Christians—and has persisted despite attempts to marginalize or punish it. It has continued to work toward national victories such as approving electricity plans and ensuring justice in distribution. He criticized the government for neglecting its responsibilities regarding Syrian refugees, asserting that Syria no longer needs the presence of Syrians on Lebanese soil, and that those promoting their return are imposing external influence at Lebanon’s expense. He also emphasized that the movement defends Lebanon against any external interference, rejecting ongoing divisions and targeting efforts that weaken the state. Finally, he reminded that resistance and national resilience are fundamental in safeguarding sovereignty and dignity.
