Ammar Says Sfeir Will be Punched Back
Hizbullah MP Ali Ammar snapped back at Patriarch Nasrallah Sfeir on Tuesday warning that the Shiite party would verbally attack the patriarch if he continues to keep himself in the "boxing ring."
"If we answer back to any political stance that Patriarch Sfeir makes … we would be told that we are targeting a certain sanctity," Ammar told OTV.
"The person who puts himself in the boxing ring would be punched the same way he is punching," the MP added.
On Monday, Sfeir warned that Hizbullah would take over decision-making in Lebanon if it continued to behave this way.
About Iranian supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's remarks on the international tribunal, Ammar said: "Had the tribunal been Lebanese, it would have probably been said that it was an interference in Lebanese affairs."
