Now Lebanon - Moussawi slams acceptance of STL as treachery - March 27, 2011

“Even mere acceptance of a selective international action that ignores Israeli crimes is treachery toward the blood of the Lebanese shed by the Israel criminals,” Loyalty to the Resistance bloc MP Nawwaf Moussawi said on Sunday.
“The so-called Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) is an example of Western disdain for the dignity of the Lebanese,” he said at a Hezbollah event, according to the National News Agency.
“The postponement of the STL’s indictment so that it will not be issued during the era of Arab revolutions is evidence that the goal is to exploit the indictment politically to damage the image of the Resistance.”
Saad Hariri’s unity government collapsed in January due to a long-running dispute over the STL, which will reportedly indict Hezbollah members in its investigation of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri’s 2005 assassination.
