| Hezbollah delegation in Damascus to discuss Lebanon vote |
| 2007-12-22 |
| A delegation of Hezbollah left for Syria today to meet with the Syrian officials regarding the presidential election in Lebanon, a source told al Markaziya News Agency. The source also told al Markaziya that the current escalation in the dispute between the majority and the minority will not result in the blocking of the presidential elections, but will eventually lead to the election of Army Commander Gen. Michel Suleiman as a compromise president who will signal a new beginning for the country and lead it to prosperity and stability. The sources also said that even though Hezbollah has authorized General Michel Aoun to negotiate on behalf of the opposition , their trip to Syria is to discuss the action plan with the Syrian officials on how to proceed from here with regards to the presidential elections. The source also said that it has become apparent that Hezbollah calls all the shots on behalf of the opposition and that General Aoun is strictly a facade considering the fact that the president should be a Christian. Yesterday Lebanese majority leader MP Saad Hariri blasted the Syrian regime for its continued interference in Lebanon’s internal affairs "The Syrian regime has gone too far in its efforts to destabilize Lebanon and to divide it using what it calls “ allies and friends “ . I find this shameful that some Lebanese allow themselves to be manipulated by such a regime which is known for terrorism, crime and corruption. " |
