Raad: Policy Statement to Be Devised According to New Majority’s Will
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
The head of the Loyalty to the Resistance bloc MP Mohammed Raad stated on Monday that the formation of the new government “surprised the sides that had been meddling with the country’s future for the past few years.”
“They didn’t expect the new majority to form a cabinet, but they have since grown accustomed to it after the foreign powers that told them that it won’t be formed realized that they are incapable of thwarting its establishment,” he added.
“No one can boss this government around,” the MP stressed.
“We want o judge actions and not statements,” he continued.
“The U.S. Ambassador to Lebanon had stated prior to the formation that the American administration would judge the cabinet based on its formation and policy statement,” Raad remarked.
“Once it was formed however, it changed its position saying that it will assess it based on its actions,” he said.
The policy statement will be devised according to the new majority’s will, the Hizbullah official stressed.

Official statements done by men not wearing a tie, or by men wearing a dress should not be taken seriously

Arrogance at its best..... !!!! Raad and his so called resistance were part of previous governments and had accepted the previous cabinet position on the STL. What has changed now? Why is it not acceptable anymore? He talks about the will of the "new" majority.... Did he and his "resistance" respect the will of the majority in May 2009 when they used their "sacred" weapons against innocent civilians. What a double faced person..... they all are.

Vague politics from all sides and by all sides will take Lebanon no where.
Philosophical politics and slogan will lead to no where.
Education, technology, future ....all will beat the enemy whoever it is.
The Arab nations are going downward while the enemies are building up on the Arab stand still politics.
Wake up and beat the enemy in his own domain....higher education....better public relation and future plans not empty slogans.

Interesting statement by the man who owns no neck tie nor shaving razor, Muhammad Raad. First, this government that he is so proud of, does not yet exist. As I read the Lebanese constitution, it must devise a policy statement and then submit itself and its policy statement to the Parliament for a vote of confidence and it is by this vote that the Government is then formed.
The Policy Statement has not been formed because Mikati has been told in no uncertain terms by the international community that if his government has no respect for international commitments made by Lebanon with regard to the STL, then his government will be regarded as a Hezbollah captive government and treated accordingly with international isolation, as has the Assad Regime.
Mikati, on the other hand, because he has made a deal with the devil, must adopte a policy statement that has an escape clause from enforcement of the STL indictments, otherwise, Hezbollah will not agree, or will go back to the streets.

after 5 months, and 6% drop in GDP for 2011 (equivalent to $2.5 Bios evaporated), he brags about this being an achievement.
