Clinton: Hariri assassination probe - independent, legitimate
None
US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton congratulated the Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) for issuing its indictment for the 2005 assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri. The court indicted four Hezbollah members.
"Those who oppose the Special Tribunal seek to create a false choice between justice and stability. Lebanon, like any country, needs and deserves both,” a statement issued by the State Department quoted her as saying. (Yitzhak Benhorin, Washington)
