Mustaqbal Warns against Abandoning STL: The Past Taught us Need to Respect National Consensus
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
The Mustaqbal bloc criticized on Tuesday the dangerous proposals suggested by some members of the new government regarding Lebanon’s commitment to the Special Tribunal for Lebanon, warning against violating an issue of Lebanese national consensus.
It said in a statement: “The officials should be wary of backing down from the consensus, especially regarding the STL, because it will harm ties between the various Lebanese factions.”
“Passed experiences have taught us the importance of maintaining consensus over the main foundations of the state,” it added.
“The Lebanese will never abandon their right to uncover the truth and place the criminals on trial,” the statement continued.
The Mustaqbal bloc renewed its commitment to the constitution and democratic political life as part of its role as a “peaceful parliamentary and popular opposition” against those who staged a coup against the previous government.
“The bloc pledges to ensure the people’s interests and gains, and it will not allow Lebanon’s democratic institutions to be stifled,” it stressed.
On the recent clashes at the northern city of Tripoli, the bloc emphasized that the issue of stripping it of its weapons should not be dealt with lightly as its residents can no longer support the “security chaos” in their city.

Nobody will abandon the STL. We will simply accept the Sale Contract of the STL, which Imbecile Saad Hariri APPROVED AND SIGNED IN CRYSTAL CLEAR AND BOLD WRITING. End of story. Afte that, the trial of the false witnesses and their fabricators (Marwan Hamadeh, Saad Hariri, Wissam Al Hassan, etc.) will commence. The guilty (and surely most if not all of them) will be hanged in front of the DARI7.

We all know how this will go down. Like it or not, STL will happen and Hezbollah's turn is coming (Aoun and all the other gnats don't really matter and are inconsequential). Ask Bin Laden, Milosevic, Mladic, Hitler, and all those who thought they can escape international justice. Like Hasan Nasrallah, these criminals all lived in bunkers for a while before they met their unavoidable fate. The only question is while the wheels of justice turn, how much misery will Hezbollah cause the Lebanese in trying to evade the inevitable?

Startrip you are very naive. International Justice does not exist. If it did Bush and the terrorist zionist leaders would have been convicted by the ICC for war crimes because they commited more war crimes than qadafi. What has been done with Bashir of Sudan who was charged by the ICC white men of "genocide" responsible for killing 400,000 persons?
Also, if you think that the west is able to control the middle east you are even more naive. Whether it is Iraq, Afghanistan, or Sudan the US and the west have been a total failure. Killing one leader, which is called a "martyr" means nothing and does not change anything on the ground.
If any of the M14 leaders encourage pro-Israeli western countries to harm Lebanon by some economic sanctions..they will be considered collaborators and will pay the ultimate price. Welcome to the real world wether you like it (or I like it) or not!
