How is he saying this if he believes they killed his father? What an imbecile!!! His father was a great man, but this guy is just scared cat.

Lebanon really needs a miracle, not only for their sake but also for ours.

the islamists wanted a caliphate, and obama is giving them one on a silver platter.

Never said anything against Hezbollah.If you read the article properly,all he said was that there was never a conclusive evidence of his father's death being caused by Hezbollah's action.Contrary to that Rafik has begun to realise the positive role that Hezbollah is playing and is frankly convinced that his option of sharing power with Hezbollah is a good and correct option...............................of course much to the disliking of certain Arab countries who tried all their best to influence Rafik,They miserably failed,didn't they?

this is confusing. Hezbollah controls Lebanon. so what does it mean to share power with Hezbollah.... it's like trying to sell ice to the inuit in winter.

His father would be turning in his grave!!

it would seem that this is not the strong hand needed to straighten lebanon out. if he doesn't avenge his father's murder, and is afraid to even return to lebanon, he is a man without honour, and his political career is finished. "when you lay down with dogs, don't be surprised if you wake up with fleas."

The Islamist wanted a caliphate, and BIBI is giving them one on a silver platter.

killers/countries. It is Stockholm Syndrome in Hariri's case, A mass-scale Syndrome in Israeli Left's case. We experience it on a daily basis, when dealing with things/persons we actually detest or fear so much, that we'd rather make nice, then have to confront them (unless we can run from them altogether). This is a situation that needs a true leader. I suspect Churchill-types do not possess the Stockholm Gene! Oh well...

Maybe he thinks or wants to be another Mandela! But, to share power with Hezbollah? Maybe Hariri junior thinks that, hopes that,... but Hezbollah!!! Saad, watch your back, don't trust Hassan, the devil,... I hope Saad was not smoking too much nargilah when he spoke about that idea.

why would hezbo want to "share power"? they are THE POWER in Lebanon now! that spineless wimp just want to cash in on his father's blood. what a shameless low life.

No, credit for that rests almost exclusively with Hussein Obama. Some goes to Lady Ashton. But then Lebanon loses all right to complain if Israel gets itchy trigger fingers. I remind you that Hezbollah has declared itself to be at war with Israel. Hezbollah has already insinuated itself into the Lebanese government. Whatever will Lebanon do when Israel decides it doesn't want Iran parked on its northern border? Aren't they in Syria already? Don't expect Israel to ignore things too much longer. The U.S. could not stop Iran and, in fact, the current U.S. administration unilaterally -- and without the knowledge and consent of the United States Congress -- reduced sanctions on Iran at least six months ago; probably longer. The United States cannot, or will not, stop Iran. Israel can.
