Hariri Thanks Ban for Supporting STL

W300

Former Prime Minister Saad Hariri contacted U.N. Chief Ban Ki-moon on Friday, thanking him for his efforts in support of the Special Tribunal for Lebanon in ex-Premier Rafik Hariri’s assassination.

Hariri praised the U.N.’s efforts since the formation of the tribunal and up until the release of the indictment on Thursday.

He hailed the indictment as a "historic" moment for Lebanon and urged the government of Premier Najib Mikati to cooperate with the Netherlands-based court.

He said: “Lebanon has triumphed for international justice, and justice has triumphed for the souls of the martyrs.”

He said: “Lebanon has triumphed for international justice, and justice has triumphed for the souls of the martyrs.”

such patriotic words, with such delusional passion coming form the mouth of a complete idiot who has his daddy turning in his grave with every word he utters.

He can thank Ban all he wants. But this loser has a ban on returning to Lebanon unless he moves his residence to a jail cell. The only acceptable visitor shall be Ban himself. Finally, the Banana republic that his father started with the full cooperation and support of the Syrians (nekrin al jamil, as mafiosos usually are) and that he inherited has ripened and gone for good. Lebanon's Spring has finally arrived.

He is not banned from returning, he is keeping himself safe from the maniacs in Lebanon. He does not want the same thing to happen to him as Pierre Gemayel, he comes back in order to show face that he is not scared, and then gets killed the night after. He is protecting himself, his family, and his party. Besides, why don't you tell your dear Sayyed to stop hiding in his bunker in south lebanon before speaking? I havent seen him in public in a while eh hiding behind his big bad guns....get real, wise up

Le Fini aka shiite bro still trying to pass for many many Christians italians and otherwise, I take it you also agree with the magnificent Mohammad Obeid of Hezballah who just the other day on the LBC confirmed M8 traditional stance which is Bashir Gemayel deserved to be killed. I wonder why didn't anyone from the Tayyar disagree with that are they too busy defending the Iranian terrorists or do they agree with Obeid as they previously agreed with Nawwaf al Moussawi?

Hopefully the idiocy revealed be the previous 5 posters isn't indicative of the Lebanese majority of the whole country is headed to the sh**ter again.

The idiocy was actually confirmed in WikiLeaks by none other than the imbecile's master, Jeffrey Feltman. So retard, go pick on your master as well, i.e. Feltman.

Rami, why would anyone want to kill him? The more he talks and is around the weaker "his" m14 movement gets. The only one that would want him dead are those who want to give a boost to the weakening m14 as happened in the past. So in this way yes, you can compare him to the martyrd sheik Pierre... But that's the only comparison this saudi kid who had not spent more than a week in Lebanon before 2005 and spent less time in Lebanon as spent in Riyadh as PM of Lebanon!
