Wahhab Meets Nasrallah, Urges Suleiman to End U.S. Assets Freeze ‘Mockery’
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Tawhid movement chief Wiam Wahhab urged President Michel Suleiman on Saturday to instruct involved ministries to resolve the extended U.S. decision to freeze his assets.
On Thursday, U.S. President Barack Obama extended a freeze of assets on persons, including Wahhab, threatening stability in Lebanon, targeting those seeking "to undermine Lebanon's legitimate and democratically elected government."
A White House statement, extending the freeze imposed in 2007 by former President George Bush, said that "certain ongoing activities, such as continuing arms transfers to Hizbullah that include increasingly sophisticated weapons systems, serve to undermine Lebanese sovereignty."
Wahhab said in his letter sent to Suleiman that in the past four years, the state made no move in confronting “the American piracy” and the foreign ministry never asked the U.S. ambassador in what right Washington was intervening in Lebanon’s internal affairs.
“I haven’t seen any official asking (U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs) Ambassador Jeffrey Feltman, the king of piracy in the Middle East, in what right a government continues to take such measures,” the former minister told the president.
Wahhab said that he and Suleiman shared the same support for the resistance and improved Lebanese-Syrian relations. “That’s why I hope that you would instruct involved ministries in accordance with your constitutional rights to end this mockery that George Bush has inherited to Barack Obama.”
Meanwhile, Wahhab held talks with Hizbullah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, the Tawhid’s press office said in a statement. The two men discussed the situation in Lebanon and the region.

It's too bad that we need foriegn governments to discipline enemies of the state for us, that we haven't the strength to do it ourselves thanks to the illegal militia.

Wiam is a nobody, he makes people laugh specially when yeserday he was saying that the freezing of his assets didnt affect him in any ways, and now he is complaining and crying to Sleiman and Nasrallah, this guy has become well known in Lebanon and the Arab world, he is the best one man show out there, and for free of course, you just have to invite him to OTV or MANAR ( of course chanels that are affiliated to his beliefs )

Why does he have assets in the US? Isn't the US the enemy according to him? Why is it that people like him and Berri have assets in the US and then bash the US at the same time? hypocrites.
