On the anniversary of the March 14 uprising, we bow in reverence to the souls of the righteous, sovereign, and heroic martyrs who sacrificed everything for Lebanon’s freedom. Yet, their noble sacrifices were shamelessly betrayed by mercenary Lebanese leaders, officials, and politicians who sold out the Cedar Revolution and the March 14 Coalition. These opportunists disgraced the martyrs’ legacy by crawling into the Trojan presidential deal with the occupier—the Iranian terrorist militia, Hezbollah. History will forever brand these political dwarfs with humiliation and contempt. If remembered at all, it will only be with disgrace. They will rot in history’s dustbin, condemned for their treachery. Driven by greed and blinded by selfish ambition, they succumbed to the temptations of power, betraying the very cause for which so many gave their lives. They bartered away Lebanon’s sovereignty, the people’s revolution, and the blood of the martyrs for authority and personal gain. Their betrayal was a direct insult to those who paid the ultimate price for freedom.
Because of their shortsightedness, narcissism, and servility, Hezbollah has entrenched its full control over Lebanon. This heinous betrayal led to Lebanon’s downfall—stripping it of its role, its message, and its sovereignty, and surrendering it to Iranian occupation. Yet, despite their treachery, the true spirit of March 14 remains alive. It thrives in the hearts, minds, and consciences of the free and sovereign Lebanese people. It is only dead in the corrupted hearts of the political parties, officials, and politicians who betrayed it—those who traded Lebanon’s sovereignty for personal benefits and power. In times of darkness and oppression, the people of March 14 are a national necessity. When submission and surrender dominate, the spirit of March 14 is the answer. And in an era of deceit, cowardice, and the fraudulent rhetoric of so-called “political realism,” the people of March 14 have unmasked the Trojans, exposing their lies and disgrace.
Even as self-interest prevails over national duty, the principles and values of March 14 endure. While the blood of the martyrs is disregarded by the traitors, the true March 14 faithful will never forget their sacrifices nor allow their cause to be sold. In this era of betrayal, where Lebanon’s fate is dictated by Trojans, scribes, and Pharisees dragging the nation into ruin, the presence of the people of March 14 is essential. As corrupt politicians lose their moral compass, abandoning the ideals of freedom and dignity, the goals and struggles of March 14 remain the foundation, the solution, and the cornerstone of Lebanon’s salvation. In the end, the spirit of March 14 is not just a memory—it is a burning force that will continue to inspire resistance, unite the free, and reignite the fight for Lebanon’s liberation.
