"We supported the Sunni Muslim Brotherhood in Palestine, only to be slaughtered by them in Syria!"
Lebanese Druze leader Wiam Wahhab discussed Israel's intervention on behalf of the Druze in Syria, during an interview with Roula Nasr on March 12, 2025. He argued that no one else would protect the Druze but the Israelis, questioning whether they are expected to be slaughtered.
Wahhab expressed support for Arab nations and Sunnis but criticized countries like Egypt, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Al-Azhar University for not protecting the Druze despite their previous support.
He also stressed that Hezbollah cannot continue supporting the Sunni Muslim Brotherhood, particularly Hamas, without assurances that Sunnis will not persecute Shiites and Druze.
