Compromise Looming for Hariri Tribunal Crisis
“The daily Al-Akhbar newspaper on Wednesday said a solution is looming for the International Tribunal crisis.
It quoted well-informed circles as saying that among the suggestions to get out of the crisis comes through an announcement by Prime Minister Saad Hariri that Israel was involved in the assassination of his father.”
This is not surprising given recent events, but noteworthy nonetheless. Lebanon is on the brink of open civil war, and the only solution they can come up with is to diffuse the tension by blaming the assassination of Rafik Hariri on Israel.
