Hariri: Only Israel, Iran and Hizbullah Backing Syrian Regime
Former Prime Minister Saad Hariri stressed on Wednesday that only Israel, Iran and Hizbullah along with the current government are defending the Syrian regime, reiterating his call on President Bashar Assad to leave power.
“Don't you see that now Israel and Iran and Hizbullah and this government are defending the Syrian regime?” Hariri said on the social networking website twitter.
He said that the cabinet will have to collapse eventually, adding that Speaker Nabih Berri’s warning of a civil war is merely to scare people.
“I think this government should go down, and we will bring it down ... the position given by Berri is to the benefit of the Syrian regime to scare people.”
Concerning Hizbullah’s arms, Hariri said that only the army should carry weapons urging the party to disarm.
“Weapons have no business being anywhere but in the hands of the Lebanese army,” he said.
Asked by a twitter user about the explosions that hit Tyre on Wednesday, the former PM said: “I think it’s a political message and that’s why the security forces should be in control of the whole of Lebanon.”
Responding to a question if he might go into an alliance with PM Najib Miqati during the 2013 elections, Hariri said “No.”
The former premier has been absent from the country for nearly eight months and has chosen Twitter as a comeback tool to reach out to followers and take on his rivals Syria and Hizbullah.
He left Lebanon in April after the March 8 forces toppled his cabinet, and popped up on Twitter earlier this month, creating an instant buzz and attracting some 25,000 followers so far.
Since then, he has devoted more than an hour every evening to respond to questions about politics, food, movies or sports, much to the delight of his constituents but also to jabs by detractors.

When are people going to recognise that syria iran and hezbo are all made in israel?Nothing matters to the world but the safety of the jews. If the US wanted bashar down he would have fallen long time ago. What israel is trying to do is to find out if the after assad gov will be pro or against israel. they are buying time for bashar and when a deal is struck with the new gov assad will fall fast. Nothing will happen in the Middle east without the aproval of the jews. i dont like hariri but i have to say he is telling the truth. what kills me is the sheea in lebanon beleive every thing hassouna tells them they are led to the slaughter little by little.the us fingerprints are all over the world. hassouna and berri are the number one mossad .

Don't worry...i'm sure Hassan Nasrallah, in his next speech, will have a justification for israel backing up the regime as they're doing...as they always do...they'll probably link it to the golan heights and israel's fear of losing them when bashar falls or sumthin...or they're gonna say: "see? even israel is defending syria and knows that turmoil's going to erupt if the regime falls"...in the end none of what they may say will be valid...when killing is being justified and defended...then clearly there's something fundamentally shaken..

...furthermore...regardless of Saad's lack of articulation and experiance in politics...wether you all like it or not...his mere presence in the country boosts the economy automatically...why? because he makes people comfortable instead of keeping them on their nerve...back in 2008, all who opposed him were living in economic stability and improvement...and i'm pretty sure it wasn't them who were behind that...yet they attack him for trivial things such as articulation and inexperience...well...we are were we are today because whoever's ruling have had too much experience in politics that it corrupted them beyond repair...

Yes, little Hariri... Israel supports the Syrian regime and its support of the Lebanese resistance. The Israelis really fear you and the Lebanese Army who NEVER fired a shot at the Israeli occupiers and invaders. Israel is very fearful of the American Saudi puppet regime (and not Iran).
If (and that is a big if) the new regime takes over AND it is more anti Israel than the current one, then you should be more concerned then now because they will do to you what the Taliban did to American puppets. Supporting the breakup of Syria will not help you either. Your Salafist allies (sooner or later) will turn on you the way Osama bin laden turned on the Saudi royal American puppets.

Also, for those who missed it. Little Hariri said on twitter that there is democracy and freedom in KSA!
now that the fall of the syrian regime is clearly coming, their real friend, israel is defending their fall :)
this is clearly showing the real coalition in the region between the syro/iranian/israelis.
all the talk about resistance is just words, and the wars that happened had only one goal: diminish the economic value of Lebanon, so this coalition can control it better.
today I can advise this coalition of the formation of the new Lebanese resistance, and its actions will be starting to show very soon.
we are reclaiming our country from these thugs.
