March 14 Slams Nasrallah’s Speech: Hizbullah Dominates Cabinet

The March 14-led opposition slammed Hizbullah Chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah’s speech, saying the way PM Najib Miqati was nominated confirms that the cabinet was not formed in Lebanon.

“The coup on (former PM Saad) Hariri’s cabinet … confirms that the appointment and formation of the government was not Lebanese at all,” March 14 sources told al-Joumhouria newspaper on Saturday.

Concerning Nasrallah’s rejection that the cabinet is dominated by Hizbullah, sources said that his “disavowal comes as confirmation… All the circumstances and evidence prove who has the final word in this government.”

Asked about the spies’ issue, the newspaper quoted the sources as saying that “Nasrallah’s speech contradicts what he announced last year, that there is no possibility for any spying network to infiltrate Hizbullah.”

“This poses a major question about the extent and size of the breach and its effects (on Hizbullah),” the sources said.
