Mustaqbal Bloc: What's the Noble Aim behind ResistanceStorming of Airport? |
| 2010-09-22 |
| [An Nahar] The Mustaqbal parliamentary bloc on Tuesday stressed the importance of "coexistence; Lebanon's Arabism that is based on a democratic regime and a peaceful rotation of power; and adhering to the Taef Accord and all its stipulations in terms of renewing the social contract, resisting the Israeli occupation, extending the State's authority over its territories, special relations with Syria based on the two countries' independence and rejecting the naturalization" of Palestinian refugees in Lebanon. In a statement issued after its weekly meeting held in Qureitem under former premier Fouad Saniora, the bloc stressed its "adherence to the Lebanese consensus on the Special Tribunal for Lebanon and its rejection of accusations and the misleading of the investigation." The conferees noted that the "security-political-media show of force -- that took place at the airport, its facilities and surroundings and some of the capital's streets by Hizbullah -- terrorized the citizens and gave a distressing image about Lebanon's fragile stability." "What were the Resistance's weapons and security personnel doing on the airport's runways and inside the VIP hall and the other halls of the airport, and what was the noble aim behind that storming?" The bloc urged all political factions to "take an example from the bitter experiences the country has suffered," stressing the need "to return to the endorsement of a national rhetoric that serves the country, preserves its unity and guarantees its future." |
