Consolidating Arab Ranks Prevents Iranian Intervention
Mustaqbal Movement leader Saad Hariri said consolidating Arab ranks would prevent Iran from interfering in Pan-Arab affairs with the aim of splitting the Arabs.
"We are involved in several confrontations and Lebanon is the first line of Defense," Hariri told representatives of partisans living overseas.
"The forthcoming elections in Lebanon also are the first line in defense of Lebanon, the Arabs, Arab belonging, the Palestine cause, Cedar revolution martyrs, martyrs of the 2006 aggression and Gaza martyrs," Hariri noted.
The forthcoming general elections, scheduled for June, 8 are of "crucial" nature, Hariri stressed.
Iran, he added, is behind the split of Arabs, but Saudi Monarch King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz "thwarted" such an attempt at the Kuwait summit, Hariri added.
The Syrians withdrew from Lebanon in April 2005 because of the pressure exerted by Lebanese patriots after the Feb. 14 assassination of ex-Premier Rafik
Hariri, The Mustaqbal Movement leader Recalled.
"They wouldn”t return. I stress, They wouldn”t return," he concluded.
