Tough Talk

Hezbollah’s M.P. Nawwaf Al Moussawi:

[Any group in Lebanon that] abides by the Special Tribunal for Lebanon’s (STL) [pending] indictment will be dealt with on the basis that it is one of the tools of US-Israeli aggression,”

Needless to say, this is bluster. The sound of someone who’s afraid of his own shadow.

I’m sensing that the backroom negotiations between Hezbollah and Hariri/Saudi/France have broken down. This is evidenced by the stances of the French ambassador and Hariri’s “hardline” position of not compromising over the STL.
