Syria-Lebanon-Iran |
Loyalists urge all parties to support Karami |
2005-03-18 |
The Ain al-Tineh gathering's follow-up committee called on all political parties Thursday to support Premier-designate Omar Karami's efforts to form a national unity Cabinet. In a statement, the committee repeated its call for talks and urged all parties "to facilitate the formation of a national unity Cabinet." "The Ain al-Tineh gathering will therefore cease all its future demonstrations to help Karami form a Cabinet," it said. This isn't over yet, by a long shot. Syria and Iran are going to fight the Lebanese with everything they have, and Jumblatt knows how to play their game. I think he can win it, though, and that Lahoud will end up stepping down. Damascus is going to be isolated. The question is whether Hezbollah's going to restart the civil war to keep its own power. |
