إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

A member of the Syrian National Council is likely to participate in the February 14 ceremony marking the seventh anniversary of the assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri, reported the Kuwaiti al-Anbaa newspaper on Sunday.

It explained that the presence of a member of the council will demonstrate the March 14 camp’s support for the Syrian revolution.

In addition, it will “cover up the absence of former Premier Saad Hariri” who so far will be unable to attend for health reasons after he recently broke his leg.

Furthermore, al-Anbaa ruled out the possibility of the head of the council Burhan Ghalioun attending the ceremony.

The March 14 leadership decided following days of consultations to mark the anniversary of Hariri’s assassination on Tuesday, February 14 at the Beirut International Exhibition & Leisure Center, An Nahar daily reported on Friday.

The coalition’s leaders also agreed to hold a mass rally at the Martyrs Square in downtown Beirut on March 14.

The BIEL ceremony will include speeches by March 14 leaders, including ex-Premier Saad Hariri, who is most likely to address supporters, politicians, and academicians through a giant screen.

Hariri is recuperating at his house in Paris after suffering from fractures in his left leg during a ski accident in the French Alps.

Rafik Hariri was killed in a massive suicide car bombing in Beirut on February 14, 2005.

Cookie, Hariri doesn't need to justify anythin. He is far more secure where he is. We don't want him back. When you control security of the airport, and obstruât other security appartuses work, you know each and every mouvements going through the airport. Tueini's family know something about this. We don't want anymore dahyie film thrillers showing us why (god forbids!)Israel would have assassinated Saad Hariri! Funnily enough for 30 years only one camp has suffered political assassinations...Wonder why. The vermines who did it can only wait..In Serbia it took more than 10 years to loch up war criminals.In Lebanon and syria it won't take that long it seems.

EXCELLENT move...This will strengthen M14 cause and help Lebanon to be more united and free. That will also help us remove the clutches of the monsters Hizballa, Iran and M8 thugs from our government. LONG LIVE M14 and the SNC. M8 your time is OVER start packing and move to Iran. No one else wants you. Start learning Farsis...

@Flame: Keep up with your identity hysteria from Cookies to Flames, The Majority will always prevail and your people who robs the government and infrastructure will eventually pay the price. Start thinking about paying your electric bills and build your homes on legal lands instead of harassing the ISF and gov employees who continuously get beaten by the Shabiha for doing their jobs.

This is a bad idea. Very bad. Although i tend more to the March14 side, they are clearly making a lot of mistakes, and this one is a huge one. We can support the free people of Syria, but this is too much. Where were they when we where bombarded for 30 years? And now specially it is clear it is a HARIRI VS BACHAR era. Very wrong move Hariri, this will incite the lebanese scene and give a reason for the Hezb to create problems as well in order to bring back the lost balance from the syrian fall.

Thrower blower, let explain it to you S L O W L Y...most shia and Amal are against Hizb but afraid to say so because of its illegal arms. M8 hide behind hizb weapons, they are nothing without the weapons. When the Syrian regime falls, Hizb will be much weaker and the TRUE Lebanese will be in a much better position to disarm Hizb and M8 gangs...Maybe You and other M8 should either learn farsi or hebrew..LOL

the filthy zionist information war department is very loud on "lebanon independance from syria" but they don't apply same principle if, somehow hypoteticaly, the usa/zionist backed goverment would be in damascus, hypoteticaly of course.

Thumb shab 06 February 2012, 00:45

With this sissy goverment, this action will show that the free civilized Lebanese support a free Syria

Thumb jabalamel 06 February 2012, 03:23

the filthy zionist information war department is getting aroused by possibility of syrian traitor coming to lebanon and is not obssesivly repeating that it's a good idea to receive him him.
