March 14 Stresses it Would Confront Coup by Protecting People’s Lives from Hizbullah’s Arms
The March 14 general-secretariat said Wednesday that the new opposition’s main task was to protect public and private lives from Hizbullah’s weapons.
Following its weekly meeting, the general-secretariat stressed it would go ahead with its decisions to confront through democratic means the “coup” that was carried out by the March 8 forces when they toppled Caretaker Premier Saad Hariri’s government and nominated Najib Miqati as prime minister-designate.
The new opposition led by Hariri stressed commitment to the constitution, the Taef accord, the Special Tribunal for Lebanon and the “protection of public and private lives from Hizbullah’s arms which have become engaged in the internal political conflict to guarantee the predominance” of the Shiite party.
The statement also accused the March 8 forces led by Hizbullah of using the weapons to implement “regional agendas” in Lebanon.
The conferees unveiled that they are preparing for political, media and cultural events to mark the anniversary of the March 14, 2005 Cedar Revolution.
