Shaker El-Aabsi Once Again

Just as I was expecting…
Make use of the sectarian hatred to get supporters…

In a recorded tape that is being distributed on the Internet, Shaker El-Aabsi asked the Sunnite population to join him to fight against the Shiites. In the same tape, he also criticized MP Saad Hariri and the Lebanese prime minister, Fouad Saniora. He called them traitors and connected them with the American plan in the Middle East.

Some of the words he used are similar to words used by the Lebanese people (specially Future Movement supporters on Internet). For example, he called Hezballah as Party of the Devil (Hezb al-Shitan) which is being used alot by many Future Movement supporters.
