Saniora Hints Nasrallah Protecting 4 Hariri Murder Suspects

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Al-Mustaqbal parliamentary bloc leader Fouad Saniora has hinted that Hizbullah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah was protecting the four suspects in ex-Premier Rafik Hariri’s assassination.

Saniora said Sunday that he was linking the TIME magazine interview with one of the suspects to the statement of Nasrallah that “these individuals are not expected to turn themselves even in 300 years.”

During a speech last month, Nasrallah said: “No Lebanese government will be able to carry out any arrests whether in 30 days ... 30 years or even 300 years."

“This means that there is someone saying in one way or another that he defends and protects them,” Saniora said.

The former prime minister urged the cabinet to exert efforts so that the four suspects hand themselves over.

The four men are Mustafa Amine Badreddine, Salim Jamil Ayyash, Hussein Hassan Oneissi and Assad Hassan Sabra.

Are we becoming like syria. Saniora had been the director of Harriri (father) bank medditeranni, then he became his finance minister for as long as he were PM. then he became Pm after Harriri died and now he's Mustaqbal head. This is exactly what's happening in Syria: family and close people as perpetual policians. Who is this saniora. A small town teacher who was useful for nothing. I knew him when I was an external auditor of bank medditerrane. He has a half brain. But in lebanon it's who do you know not how smart you are which lands you the big posts.

I hope this saniora deletes himself from the political scene. Enough is enough.

In the civilized world harboring fugitives is a crime. The calls for Nasrallah to be brought to justice need to start.
