March 14 wonders: 'What did Miqati promise Hezbollah and Syria ?'


The big question in Lebanon right now is what did Prime Minister-designate Najib Mikati promise Syria and Hezbollah in return for his nomination to lead the new government .....
Mikati was a staunch ally of Hariri during the 2009 parliamentary elections. His change of position has puzzled some Sunnis.....  observers believe that Hezbollah would not have supported Mikati’s election without a guarantee that he would discredit the tribunalIn interview with AFP on Tuesday Mikati said he confirmed that he was nominated by Hezbollah only to protect the resistance .. “My nomination by Hezbollah does not make me committed to any political stance other than protecting the Resistance.” Mikati said …..and for this reason the time has come for Mikati to disclose to the Lebanese people his real agenda before he can expect the March 14 blocs to join his cabinet if he really wants a national unity government"
