Former Prime Minister Saad Hariri is expected to make a speech through a giant screen during the announcement of a new political document by his al-Mustaqbal movement on Wednesday, An Nahar daily said.

According to An Nahar, Hariri will invite all Lebanese to consolidate Lebanon and urge them not to link the fate of any party to the Syrian regime.

He will also reiterate that Hizbullah should disarm itself, the newspaper said.

The document, entitled “al-Mustaqbal and the Prospects of the Arab Spring,” will be launched at Center House.

It stresses support for the Taef Accord, coexistence, the Special Tribunal for Lebanon that is probing ex-Premier Rafik Hariri’s Feb. 2005 assassination, and the right of the people to freedom and democracy.

Hariri, who has been residing in Paris since he suffered fractures to his leg in a ski accident in the Alps in January, will travel to Saudi Arabia, An Nahar said, without providing any date.

Maybe someone told him Bashar's time is not expired, but it had been extended.

I don't know whether or not the situation in Syria is tipping to the side of its regime! It could be that Harriri after getting some info on the situation has realised that the Syrian situation might after all not be rosy as he predicted. That's why he's made a full turn in his stance by advising Lebanese not to link their faye to that of the Syrian opposition. I for one think that Assad would not be able to govern even if he prevails in Syria. However, if the situation in Syria aggravates further it might affect Lebanon and its stability. No matter what happens, the Lebanese should only depend on themselves and their will to create a better country and cooperate with all Arab states on the basis of mutual repect.

As apparent in this photo, cheikh Saad officially lost an "a" and became Sad!!! Cheikh Sad will receive your condolences this coming Thursday and Friday at the makeshift Free Syrian Embassy in Wagadoushistan, the latest place where he set foot.
