Progressive Socialist Party leader Walid Jumblat Accused the Airport Security department of loyalty to Hizbullah, called for banning flights by Iranian jetliners and said the Iranian ambassador should be asked to Leave Lebanon. Jumblat, addressing a press conference at his ancestral palace in Mukhtara, also accused the Hizbullah-controlled Jihad al-Binaa institute of maintaining "a base" overlooking Beirut airport. He said Hizbullah has built its own communications network that also is linked to Syria. He said such practices by Hizbullah were tantamount to declaring its own state. Methods applied to monitor the possible smuggling of weapons through Beirut airport in line with UNSCR 1701 are "worthless as long as commander of the airport security department is penetrated by Hizbullah" Jumblat said. Jumblat charged that Hizbullah's security chief Wafiq Safa practices "security control over Beirut Airport and he decides whether it is allowed to the Army and police to move." "They can practice abductions and assassinations along the airport road or runway number 17," Jumblat said. He accused "Syria's gangs" of killing chief of the army's military operations Gen. Francois Hajj. Jumblat said areas off limits to state security are "reservoirs for booby trapped cars." He said the police department's counter-terrorism expert Wissam Eid had been assassinated "following his success in detecting certain communication related to the Hariri assassination." Jumblat said he has decided to disclose such information "before people march in my funeral or that of (Mustaqbal Movement leader) Saad Hariri." He accused Syrian President Bashar Assad's Regime of possible involvement in the Feb. 12 assassination of Hizbullah's Imad Mughniyeh "being a witness to the Hariri assassination" in 2005. Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri's Freedom of Movement is "limited," Jumblat said. He said the March 14 majority alliance accepts the 1960 election law "with some amendments." "We have welcomed the formation of a national unity government, but they don't want a president or a government or parliamentary elections," Jumblat charged.
