NOW Lebanon- Majdalani: Lebanese government collapse in Hezbollah, Syria’s hands , November 28, 2011

Future bloc MP Atef Majdalani on Monday said that the possible collapse of Prime Minister Najib Mikati’s government is “in the hands” of Hezbollah and Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s regime.
“The cabinet’s collapse is in the hands of those who formed it,” the MP told the Free Lebanon radio station in a reference to the Shia group and Damascus.
He added that “in case the government remains, it means that Hezbollah and the Syrian regime consider it is not yet the time to bring it down.”
The current Lebanese government is dominated by Hezbollah and its allies, which are insisting that the country cease all cooperation with the Special Tribunal for Lebanon, set up in the wake of ex-Premier Rafik Hariri’s 2005 murder. Last week, Prime Minister Najib Mikati hinted that he will resign if the cabinet fails to provide its share of funding.
The UN-backed STL has charged four Hezbollah operatives in connection with the assassination.
