Hariri: Hizbullah Won’t Remain Stronger than the State
Former Premier Saad Hariri has said that Hizbullah will stop being stronger than the state once it stops relying on its weapons to impose its will.
“I believe weapons should be only in the hands of the Lebanese government,” Hariri said on twitter on Tuesday night.
Asked by a follower if it was too much to ask for a Beirut arms-free city, the ex-PM said: “No it’s not and I demand a Lebanon without weapons.”
He reiterated that the Syrian regime will collapse.
Syrian President Bashar Assad signed the Arab protocol because he found himself in the corner, Hariri tweeted in Arabic. But the former premier stressed that Assad will fall in the trap of his actions.
The Arab League said an advance team of observers would head to Damascus on Thursday to lay the ground for monitors overseeing the plan to which Syria agreed on Monday.
