March 14 Preparing for Plan to Tackle Hizbullah after Demise of Syrian Regime
The March 14 forces are preparing a document to tackle Hizbullah’s presence in Lebanon after the fall of the Syrian regime, reported Akhbar al-Yawm news agency on Thursday.
March 14 sources told the news agency that the forces are preparing for a Hizbullah that has laid down its arms, adding that their line of action will become clearer after Sunday’s Mustaqbal movement rally in Tripoli.
Among the ideas being addressed is punishing the party for its transgressions, while others have proposed that all sides let go of the past and start a new chapter of relations with the group.
The sources noted that some sides believe that Hizbullah will transform into a terrorist organization, based on the international law’s definition of such groups and not Lebanon’s views, in light of the Special Tribunal for Lebanon’s accusation of four party members of being involved in the 2005 assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.
Therefore, one of the upcoming dilemmas Lebanon may have to face is the existence of a Lebanese government that includes members of a terrorist organization among its ranks, continued the sources.
The March 14 camp is seeking to study these issues, among others, within a document in an effort to reach answers to all pending issues, said the sources.
