Lebanon - Oct 28

Former Prime Minister Saad Hariri said on Tuesday that Lebanon should disengage from the current Syrian civil war and that, "the itinerant incidents" occurring throughout Lebanon are spillover from the war in Syria. He stated that a Sunni revolution is far removed from the aspirations and goals of the sect and encouraged a monopoly of force on behalf of the Lebanese army for protecting the border with Syria to prevent Hezbollah from gaining, "a new pretext to intervene in the Syrian war and to expand its security and military action in Lebanon".
