July 22, 2010 - Naharnet - National Bloc: Hizbullah has Abandoned National Dialogue Consensus and Government's Policy Statement

The National Bloc condemned on Wednesday Hizbullah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah and the party's MPs recent statements about the Special Tribunal for Lebanon, saying that Hizbullah has abandoned the consensus reached at the national dialogue and the government's policy statement.

The bloc said in a statement after a meeting headed by its leader Carlos Edde: "Hizbullah believes that it is more important than agreements and national consensuses, which is why the National Bloc rejected the Doha accord because any agreement with Hizbullah does not achieve any guarantees as long as the party maintains its possession of weapons."

It noted that the country is now divided into two camps, the first possesses arms that grants it veto power and impose its views, and the second is not ready to assume its responsibilities and impose the law and constitution.

"It is unfortunate that the first camp has been victorious so far," the statement added.

Addressing Free Patriotic Movement leader MP Michel Aoun's recent statements reported in As Safir, the bloc said: "His comments that the remarks were a figment of his imagination are very dangerous as he either blends fact with fiction or he is no longer able to differentiate between them."

"In either case, a man suffering from any one of these cases should not be in a position of power," the statement said.
