Jumblat: Netanyahu's 'War Declaration'...

"MP Walid Jumblat stressed Monday that Lebanon must bolster its defenses against Israeli plans to drag the region into a "dangerous stage" especially after Israeli premier's policy speech "completely crippled" any possibility to reach a peace settlement.....

He warned that Netanyahu's speech "makes the region susceptible to great dangers that might explode in different directions." ...

In light of such grim scenarios, Jumblat stressed the "urgent need for a serious and in-depth study of a defense strategy to protect Lebanon and enhance its defenses." Jumblat also called for efforts to "fortify" the domestic front by the formation of a national unity government that has "a wide and diverse political representation."
