August 15, 2010 - Naharnet - Wahab: March 14 Ministers Should Quit after Withdrawing Tribunal Funding

Tawhid movement leader Wiam Wahab urged March 14 ministers on Sunday to withdraw funding for the Special Tribunal for Lebanon and pull out of the government.
In remarks to al-Jadid TV, Wahab also said that Premier Saad Hariri "should quit for one year and return after that." He criticized the prime minister for spending his vacation abroad amid counter-accusations among Lebanese politicians over the international tribunal.

He reiterated that the court is biased saying "there is no such thing as international tribunal. There is a politicized investigation that they are moving in the direction they want."

The former minister said he believed that "Syrian tanks" would return to Lebanon in case of internal strife. This would put the country back under regional and international hegemony, according to Wahab.
