Report: Saudi, UAE Press Hariri on LF, PSP Representation

W460

Saudi Arabia and the UAE have called on Prime Minister-designate Saad Hariri not to accept a government line-up in which the Lebanese Forces does not get the share it is asking for, a media report said.

The two Gulf powerhouses in addition to Egypt have also asked Hariri to prevent any attempt to “besiege ex-MP Walid Jumblat through the infiltration of Druze representation,” al-Akhbar newspaper reported on Saturday.

Moreover, Sunni politicians have received requests from the three Arab countries to “stand by Hariri” as he seeks to prevent any “encroachment on his jurisdiction,” the daily added.

Hariri was tasked with forming a new government on May 24. The main obstacle hindering his mission is political wrangling over Christian and Druze representation.

Thank you southern for being patriotic and for posting under the patriotic alias. It is one of my favorite aliases that you use.

After reviewing the comments above, I must concur with you the language and the accent used is definitely Saudi. Your ability to detect languages, accents and dialects is not something new.

I attribute my development to you. I am thankful for you have molded me into the man I have become.

Please, Keep Posting because the World Keeps Listening.

lol @ 'al-Akhbar newspaper reported'

Al Akhbar is as credible as when @mowateh aka giga incorruptible says he is not shia and has only one account, or when @southern says he is patriotic, or @blacacabla says he is French and lives in Harrisa.

So to simplify it: what the shia iranian owned and operated al akhrar newspaper is saying that the ISIS loving Saudi Arabia is protecting the hardliner Lebanese Forces share in the cabinet.

Gutter reporting and what is shameful is naharnet re prints these reports knowing the scum source.

That is what hezbollah does: If it wants to divert the attention from something, it uses its proxy media to throw out bizarre stories.

It sure seems that both KSA and the UAE find no one more trustworthy than 'Bob' ( as he likes to call himself ) Al Amin of Al Akhbar.

Aahhhhh! Finally the Saudi scheme the terror militia was alluding to has been finally unveiled!

Saudi Arabia is asking the Christian Lebanese Forces to stick to what they are entitled to in their share of the government.

It all makes sense now:)
