VIDEO - Saad Hariri, the leader of the main Lebanese parliamentary block and son of slain prime minister Rafik Hariri accused Syrian President Bashar Assad of stirring strife in Lebanon and said "Syria is making a cynical use of the blood of children in the village of Qana, Gaza and Baghdad." "After 33 days of bombardments a bomb of a different kind fell on our heads today after Assad's speech," he said. Assad accused Hariri and the 'March 14' anti-Syrian block of collaborating with Israel and the United States in a speech delivered on Tuesday in Damascus. Syrian parliamentarian Faisal Kulthum responded angrily to Hariri's remarks saying he is "a small and stupid agent who is pinning his hope on foreign forces. When the Israeli attack against Lebanon started the agent Hariri was in Europe and now he is claiming to be with the resistance."

Hariri's coalition partner Walid Jumblatt lashed out at Assad on Wednesday saying he is encouraging a Hizbullah take over of Lebanon. "The common thing between them (Assad and Hizbullah) is a coup – one rose to power through his father's military takeover and the other is conspiring to bring about a political revolution in Lebanon," Jumblatt said.

Jumblatt is expected to deliver a tough-worded speech against Assad later Thursday. Anti-Syrian politicians have accused Syria of exploiting Israel's offensive against Hizbullah to reoccupy Lebanon. Hizbullah: Israeli bombing equals 5 nuclear bombs Bombs dropped by Israel on Lebanon during 34 days of fighting caused as much destruction as five nuclear bombs, Hizbullah spokesperson Hussein Rahal told the London-based al-Sharq al-Awsat newspaper. He said "millions of tons of explosives" had five times the impact of the nuclear bomb dropped by the United States on Hiroshima in Japan in WWII. He said that Israel's bombardment of the Dahiyeh neighborhood in southern Beirut left 70,000 people homeless. He added that 70,000 people were killed in Hiroshima.
