Geagea Quoted as Saying Hariri Will be 'Forgotten', LF Slams 'Lies'
Ex-PM Saad Hariri has been “infuriated” by a leaked audio recording in which Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea talks to LF members about the former premier’s withdrawal from politics, al-Akhbar newspaper reported on Tuesday.
The recording was leaked to Hariri by “a security agency belonging to a major Arab country that is seeking to play a permanent role regarding the Lebanese Sunnis,” the daily said.
In the alleged recording, Geagea discusses Hariri’s exit from the political equation and expresses his relief over “getting rid” of Hariri, al-Akhbar added.
“We know how we will attract his supporters and we have our ways,” Geagea was quoted by the newspaper as saying.
“I promise you that I will bring every member of his group to me… They will forget him,” the LF leader added, according to al-Akhbar.
In an interview with al-Jadeed TV, ex-MP Fadi Karam of the LF dismissed the newspaper’s report as “lies” aimed at “fragmenting the anti-Hizbullah front.”

Hariri, as in Saad Hariri won't be forgotten, he already is! He was the lamest PM ever, he behaved like he was selling vegetables at the nearest hisbeh.
However, only one Hariri will remain in our hearts and prayers, the great rebuilder of Lebanon Rafik Hariri murdered by Hizbala on the orders of the Syrian regime.

al-Akhbar newspaper is as credible as when @mowateh says he is not shia and has only 23 accounts on naharnet.
