Mufti of Mount Lebanon Mohammad Ali Jouzou said Sunday that the 2008 May events were an attack on people’s dignities, the National News Agency (NNA) reported.
We might agree with Hezbollah that dignity must be maintained and that the Special Tribunal for Lebanon’s (STL) investigators should not be allowed to enter a gynecology clinic, Jouzou said. However, he added that it is an assault on the country when gunmen led by the Party of God took over half of Beirut in May.
On Wednesday, an STL team was attacked by a group of around 30 women at a gynecology clinic in Hezbollah-controlled Dahiyeh suburb of Beirut.
The investigators had scheduled a meeting with Dr. Iman Charara – who runs the clinic.
Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said Thursday “we have reached a very dangerous point where we can no longer remain silent… Our honor has been breached.” He also called on all Lebanese to boycott the UN probe into the 2005 assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri and to end all cooperation with its investigators.
