Énorme. En mars 2008, le vice-premier ministre Elias Murr reçoit les américains chez lui à Rabieh.

Il faut lire le document entier, mais le résumé est déjà très révélateur:
"In a March 10 meeting with Charge, MinDef Murr expressed his growing concern that a Hizballah war with Israel is imminent. His assessment is based upon recent Hizballah preparations, reported movement of families, and the precipitous increase in Israeli overflights of Lebanon. Murr does not think that Hizballah can win another war with Israel and will be defeated. Describing Hizballah as “scared,” Murr opined that they are scared because they know that Israel might be about to attack, or, more probably, they fear the retribution Israel will heap upon them when Hizballah takes revenge for the killing of terrorist Imad Mughniya. Murr offered some ideas aimed at avoiding turning the Christian population against Israel when the next war with Hizballah occurs. Murr also outlined his orders to the Lebanese Army when/if Israel invades to counter Hizballah. End summary."
Le courageux Elias Murr annonce que le #Hezbollah est «terrorisé»:
"Returning to the theme of a wary Hizballah, Murr told us that “they (Hizballah) are scared, terrorized. They know the Israelis will not lose again.” Murr thinks that Ehud Barak is a very different Minister of Defense than the one who tried to win a war using airpower."
Élégance envers Michel Aoun:
"When asked what role Free Patriotic Movement leader Michel Aoun is playing right now, Murr deadpanned that he is “going insane.” Retired BG Fouad Ashkar, an Aoun advisor dating to Aoun’s time as Lebanese Army Commander, came to see Murr on March 9 to discuss weapons permits for Aoun’s bodyguards. Murr told Ashkar that he was authorized only ten permits. Aoun had recently contacted Murr’s father to try and pressure the MinDef into agreeing to fifty weapons permits. A defiant Murr told Ashkar to “go get some of your Hizballah suicide bombers to serve as bodyguards,” the sub-context being that perhaps Michel Aoun would get blown up along the way."
Murr se vante de limiter les visites à son voisin de Rabieh:
“Murr is also limiting the number of visitors that can drive up to Aoun’s house in the protected enclave of Rabieh. Murr only allows official visitors such as MPs to approach the house; all the others must park outside and ride shuttles. Murr says that the residents of Rabieh are exhausted with Aoun being a bad neighbor and going against Christian traditions by backing Hizballah.”
Une gentillesse tout de même pour #Saad_Hariri et #Amine_Gemayel:
"Murr expressed skepticism about this concept, saying leaders such as Amine Gemayel and Saad Hariri will use this to elevate “stupid” people so that their own political light is not obscured or risk being dimmed by another rising politician. They are looking at this from their selfish parochial views, an approach not uncommon in Lebanese politics, Murr complained."
Enfin (et c’est énorme), Elias Murr insiste pour qu’on comprenne bien qu’il n’est pas en train de faire passer des conseils à Israël, mais tout de même, voici ses conseils pour Israël en cas de guerre contre le Liban:
“Making clear that he was not responsible for passing messages to Israel, Murr told us that Israel would do well to avoid two things when it comes for Hizballah One, it must not touch the Blue Line or the UNSCR 1701 areas as this will keep Hizballah out of these areas. Two, Israel cannot bomb bridges and infrastructure in the Christian areas. The Christians were supporting Israel in 2006 until they started bombing their bridges. If Israel has to bomb all of these places in the Shia areas as a matter of operational concern, that is Hizballah’s problem. According to Murr, this war is not with Lebanon, it is will Hizballah. Murr also told us that the number of overflights recently (reftel B and C) are the highest number since 1982. The last time there were this many overflights was just prior to Israel invading south Lebanon in April 1982, he stated flatly.”
Cet homme qui est en train de donner des conseils aux Israéliens, expliquant que le Hezbollah est «terrorisé», à ce moment-là, parle aux Américains en tant que ministre de la Défense du Liban. Oui.
