Prime Minister Saad Hariri will have no choice but to “form armed or unarmed forces to execute the decisions of the Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) on Lebanese territory,” Tawhid Movement leader Wiam Wahhab said in Monday’s issue of Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Anbaa.
In July, Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said that the STL is an Israeli project and will indict members of his party.
The solution to the current situation is for “Hariri and his followers to step back from their project to grab power,” Wahhab added, saying that since 2005, they have “traded the flag of resistance for knives to stab Hezbollah in its back and heart.”
Nasrallah said on Friday that “a knife was put in our wound and twisted” through political exploitation of the August 24 clashes in Beirut between supporters of Hezbollah and those of Sunni group al-Ahbash.
That evening, Hariri responded by saying, “I am not the one holding a knife. I am the son of [former Prime Minister] Rafik Hariri and I will remain modest.”
“PM Hariri speaks two contradictory languages and uses two different faces, one Egyptian-American and the other Lebanese-Syrian,” Wahhab also said, adding that Hariri is toeing the Egyptian-Jordanian-American line in peace negotiations and this may affect Lebanon’s domestic scene negatively.
