Responding to the proposal made by
MP General Michel Aoun, the secretary general of the World Council of the
Cedars Revolution said the "suggestion is a Hezbollah trap to crumble the
majority and defeat the Cedars Revolution. If an ally of Hezbollah, the
Aoun bloc, will name the next President the UN resolutions will be
killed. And if a new Government will include Hezbollah, the Parliamentary
majority will be paralyzed." Harb, who is also the secretary general of
the International Lebanese Committee for UNSCR 1559 said "the
international community produced resolutions so that the Lebanese people
elect democratically a new President not to have politicians allies with
Terror groups name the next President. The idea is simply unacceptable and
will be opposed by the Lebanese Diaspora." We have communicated our
position to the Lebanese MPs and Lebanon's friends worldwide. There will
be a democratic election for Lebanon's next President, now or in months,
but one thing will not happen, that is naming a President on behalf of
Hezbollah."
