| Lebanon PM to visit Gulf after Saudi aid cutoff |
| 2016-02-23 |
| [ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Leb's Prime Minister says he will head a ministerial delegation to visit Gulf states in the near future after Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... halted security assistance deals worth $4 billion. The Saudi move came after Leb failed to back the Sunni kingdom in its spat with Shiite powerhouse Iran, the leading backer of Hezbollah. In a statement Monday, Lebanese Prime Minister Tammam Salam insisted Beirut stands by Arab countries. Salam says it is necessary to rectify relations between Leb and its "brothers," and "remove the stains" that surfaced recently. Salam heads a unity Cabinet that includes members of an Iran-backed coalition headed by Hezbollah and the Saudi-supported March 14 group. Salam said Leb will maintain its policy of "disassociation" from regional conflicts. Except that Hezbollah's the real ruler of Leb, and they're providing a bit of fraternal Axis of Evil aid to the Syrian govt. |
