This is actually the same Nadim Gemayel who always complains about the militia-like behavior of Hezbollah, now giving silly excuses and justifying their actions. The people at Nasawiya might have started the whole thing after chanting against all MPs when they knew Nadim Gemayel was in the area, but that definitely doesn’t give the bodyguards the right to abuse their power.
But to be honest, I wasn’t surprised by the whole incident, I mean what do you expect from Lebanese people in power? What surprised me the most were those people on social media and blogs who were actually defending Nadim Gemayel and calling to take the incident more lightly, just because they support him or his political view. What degree of followership are these people exercising?

They had no idea nadim gemayel was in the area… They were chanting against the convoy that was blocking their entrance and forbidding them from taking pictures at their farewell party.
No one had any idea it was Nadim Gemayel till much later after being beaten and held at gun point.

You can see the guy barges inside their headquater and at no point does anyone mention Nadim la men arib wala min b3id. All the questions of “who are you” get answered with ” ma khasskon. “
I’m not blaming Nasawiya for it, I’m just saying that the whole thing simply started after Nasawiya chanted against MPs, and the bodyguards then overreacted big time, just as Ramy from Mokh Libnene claimed here http://mokhlibnene.wordpress.com/2013/06/29/my-detailed-statement-on-what-happened-in-nasawiya-with-nadims-security/
