Hizbullah Calls on Hariri to Return to Lebanon
2013-07-31
[An Nahar] Hizbullah had urged former Prime Minister Saad Hariri
Second son of Rafik Hariri, the Leb PM who was assassinated in 2005. He has was prime minister in his own right from 2009 through early 2011. He was born in Riyadh to an Iraqi mother and graduated from Georgetown University. He managed his father's business interests in Riyadh until his father's assassination. When his father died he inherited a fortune of some $4.1 billion, which won't do him much good if Hizbullah has him bumped off, too.
to return to Leb through diplomatic channels, al-Joumhouria newspaper reported on Tuesday.

According to the newspaper Hariri had received several calls to return to the country, not only from Speaker Nabih Knobby Berri

, but from Hizbullah also.

However,
it's easy to be generous with someone else's money...
the daily said that the Sunni leader is holding on to his decision to remain outside Leb over security fears.

The report pointed out that Hariri considers that the liquidations attempts in Leb hasn't reached an end yet.

Last week, local newspapers quoted Berri saying: "Hariri must return to Leb to facilitate the resumption of the dialogue so that we cooperate to face the current challenges."

"I think Hariri can stay at the Center House if he has security fears," the speaker said.
