Hariri: Miqati Will Only Resign if He Feels His Boss is About to Fall

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Former premier Saad Hariri on Sunday said that Prime Minister Najib Miqati would only resign when he “feels his boss is about to fall.”

Asked by a Twitter user on whether he would ally with Miqati in the 2013 polls if the premier resigned over possible inability to secure the funding of the Special Tribunal for Lebanon by his government, Hariri said: “No.”

“If Miqati resigns, it will be only, AND ONLY, because he feels his boss is about to fall,” Hariri tweeted in English.

“Justice will prevail, (the) tribunal has begun its work and soon we will see the criminals behind bars,” Hariri said.

He denied that he was “waiting for the (Syrian) regime to fall” in order to return to Lebanon, noting that he will return to the country “sooner than later.”

Asked how would the March 14 camp respond if Hizbullah Secretary-General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah “took Lebanon to war to protect Syria or Iran,” Hariri said: “That's called suicide and I doubt he will.”

Asked whether he believed Hizbullah and its allies would resort to military action against fellow Lebanese to “support the Syrian regime,” the former premier said: “No i don't think so and if they do they will be committing suicide.”

He also noted that Miqati’s government would “help” embattled Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in the event of a foreign military intervention in Syria.

You better start planning for boats load of weapons because there is only one frequency the terrorist will operate on: "Assassinate, Kill , Terrorize"
If you want to live in peace then prepare yourself for the war. (i.e. Zionist and then later Hezbollah"

No, Jonah, this wouldn't be bad news for Saad only, and not for the reasons you're thinking. Saad is an accidental politician and didn't have the power hunger like an idiot that goes by Aoun the Clown. And, should Miqati and his bosses stick around as you wrongfully surmise, Lebanon would be the biggest loser.

But fear not, Jonah... the die is cast. Miqati's bosses are on their way out.

It won't be too long. The Arab league will sanction the boss on Thursday. The downfall will start on Friday.

Tonyfarris..."Allawites hate Arabs more than they hate Jews"?... Thinking about that comment makes my head hurt.

This is a war between Iran/Shiites and Suadi arabia/Sunni. A Muslim civil war. It's was a cold war and it's now becoming hot. Next, Bahrain and Kuwait. With the saudi Arabia the instigators to pressure Iran from the USA and Israels behalf.

Shia's are just a minority in the middle east, they should start thinking clearly before they either become extinct or are exiled to their beloved Khomeini in Persia. H.A. will not even be remembered in the history books, without the Syrian they were nobody's, Bashar will be gone its a matter of when and how. The how part is probably the same fate as Saddam or Ghadafi or maybe even milatovich if he is lucky that is. H.A. will then have two choices to become truly Lebanese or face extermination. It can take some time but it is inevitable since minorities cannot rule forever. The same fate happened to the Christians of Lebanon during the civil war they had to give up some power or face being massacred.
