Shiite Duo Says 'Won't Back Down' on Bitar Removal Demand
[M.NAHARNET] The stance of Hizbullah
...Party of God, a Leb militia inspired, founded, funded and directed by Iran. Hizbullah refers to itself as The Resistance and purports to defend Leb against Israel, with whom it has started and lost one disastrous war to date, though it did claim victory...
and Amal Movement is "a righteous demand that serves the higher national interest as to security and stability and thwarts the strife scheme whose threads are American and is being implemented with domestic Lebanese tools," sources close to the Shiite duo said."Some of these tools are judicial and not limited to Judge (Tarek) Bitar while the other tools are non-judicial," the sources told al-Joumhouria newspaper in remarks published Friday.

"Had Cabinet on Tuesday taken the right measure by tasking the Justice Minister to do everything necessary to put an end to Judge Bitar’s violations, which are aimed at dragging the country into strife, what happened today would not have happened," the sources added, referring to the deadly Tayyouneh festivities.

"We will not back down from our stance, especially after what happened, and the head of strife (Bitar) must be removed," the sources went on to say.

The sources also said that what happened in Tayyouneh was "a new and edited version of the (1975) Ain al-Remmaneh bus incident."

"Was it not for our wisdom, we would have descended into something much more dangerous," the sources added.

The sources also called on President Michel Aoun
...president of Leb, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hizbullah...
to "pull us out of this inferno" after "all the details and circumstances have become clear to him."

"Bitar is serving an agenda targeted against the country’s security and stability," the sources added, addressing Aoun.
