So, what is really going on? Pretexts?

(Al Akhbar)- Al Akhbar, a newspaper with a 'casual' association with PM designate Mikati had this: "US Sources informed Lebanese officials that the new strategy towards Lebanon is based on the premise of preventing President Najib Mikati from forming his government, and to allow economic, political and diplomatic pressures to take their tolls, ... rendering him unable to commit to a  joint strategy with the components of March 8. The hoped for result is to, either give March14 (13 really) a 'blocking third' or declare forfeit. US sources said that the Lebanese-Canadian Bank episode is but an 'appetizer.'"
