nowlebanon 18-JUN-11

[-said]: Assad would not have dared to invade Syrian cities and villages with tanks and missiles if he did not receive protection [from foreign countries],

nowlebanon 10-FEB-12

[added:]: [Lebanese] feel every wound inflicted on our brothers in Syria and we consider that [standing in solidarity with them during] the ordeal they are [going through] is a national duty.

nowlebanon 10-FEB-12

[-said]: It is time for all those in solidarity with the Syrian people, especially those Arab countries that have exhausted all measures of pressuring the Syrian regime through the Arab League, to take practical steps going beyond condemnation and sanctions and recognize the Syrian National Council as the legitimate representative of the Syrian people,

dailystar 10-FEB-12

[-said]: the almost unanimous Arab and international condemnation of the regime and of its crimes.

naharnet 10-FEB-12

[-said]: The military campaign waged by the armed brigades of the Syrian regime against the cities of Homs, Zabadani, Daraa and other cities witnessing popular movements, is a dangerous episode of the bloody series sponsored by international and regional parties that agreed to give Bashar al-Assad the opportunity to pounce on his people and protect his political regime with all brutal methods,

naharnet 10-FEB-12

[-added]: We are confident that the Syrian people will triumph in the end, no matter how brutal the regime is, and that the forces of tyranny will receive the same fate that all criminals receive usually,

naharnet 10-FEB-12

[-said]: We are confident that the Syrian people will be victorious in the end,

dailystar 10-FEB-12

[said:]: It’s the exact same talk each time.

dailystar 16-JAN-12

[-said]: The problem is that the other team [March 8] does not want to acknowledge that there is a different opinion in the country in this regard,

dailystar 16-JAN-12

[-said]: Change is imminent in Syria. Don't let those propaganda drums fool you, he [Assad] is finished you’ll see,

dailystar 14-JAN-12

[said:]: It's actually ridiculous.

dailystar 10-JAN-12

[-said]: I think it is sad that the Arab League is falling into this trap, but I am confident that the Syrian people will be free,

nowlebanon 09-JAN-12

[said:]: I am all for women giving the #Lebanese nationality to their children and husbands, I think it's shameful that we don't.

dailystar 08-JAN-12

[-said]: Let us see what will happen today regarding the report of the Arab observer mission [in Syria]…and my opinion is known; the Syrian regime must collapse,

nowlebanon 08-JAN-12

[-said]: What is noticeable about the explosion in Damascus is its timing 24 hours before the Arab [League] committee meeting as well as its location Midan Square, which is a central spot of the popular movements in Damascus,

dailystar 07-JAN-12

[-also said]: What is noticeable about the explosion in Damascus is its timing 24 hours before the Arab [League] committee meeting as well as it location Midan Square, which is a central spot of the popular movements in Damascus.

[also said:]: President Bashar Assad’s government in Lebanon cannot decide to send observers to monitor the regime that it appointed in Damascus.

dailystar 07-JAN-12

[-said]: We condemn all acts of terrorism. The Syrian revolution has pointed out the true objectives and the determined the culprit,

dailystar 07-JAN-12

[ said]: The whole story about al-Qaeda's presence in Lebanon is clearly a fabrication concocted by Syrian intelligence and was denied by another minister,

ibtimes 06-JAN-12

[-said]: Instead of focusing on [how to] expand [the] economy and create employment opportunities for Lebanese graduates, members of the Lebanese government are competing among themselves to gain popular support,

dailystar 05-JAN-12

[-said]: The mishandling of [the] minimum wage and salary scale issue reflects the lack of vision and direction of [the] current Lebanese [government],

dailystar 04-JAN-12

[-also said that]: Any weapons harm the country... and the arms should be [put under the authority] of the state.

nowlebanon 04-JAN-12

[-added]: The current Lebanese government is also delaying the reforms to modernize the economy,

dailystar 04-JAN-12

[also said that:]: change is inevitable

nowlebanon 04-JAN-12

dailystar 04-JAN-12

nowlebanon 04-JAN-12

[-said]: Condemning the crimes of Assad is the least thing I can do for the heroic Syrian people,

nowlebanon 04-JAN-12

[said:]: What do you expect to say about such hatred?

dailystar 04-JAN-12

[-responded]: tarnishes the image of the country.

dailystar 03-JAN-12

[-said]: It is not helpful to try and transform the issue as problem between the people and the army. The problem is in the inaccurate announcements that were denied by ministers in the same government,

dailystar 03-JAN-12

[-added]: Its time for AL observers to say the truth, the full story and not like Bashar regime wants it,

dailystar 02-JAN-12

[-said]: It's been 7 years talking about Al-Qaeda in Lebanon,

dailystar 02-JAN-12

[said:]: No I didn't [expect a change] and I said it [before], remember , but now if this week the AL observers continue without saying anything whats the point then?

dailystar 02-JAN-12

[-said]: The AL [Arab League] observers don't have much time, credibility is of essence and so far Bashar regime has been killing more and more,

dailystar 02-JAN-12

[-told]: A joint task force needs to be [created] in order to get rid of this regime,

nowlebanon 28-DEC-11

[-added]: This needs to stop immediately,

nowlebanon 28-DEC-11

[-said that]: do whatever it takes to stop the massacre in Homs.

nowlebanon 27-DEC-11

[-said]: I have been watching the news about Homs and Syria. Everything must be done to stop this massacre,

nowlebanon 27-DEC-11

[said:]: It is a known visit but he made no announcement about it, and we had dinner together.

nowlebanon 27-DEC-11

[-said]: The Arab League should go to the UN and instate a no-fly zone [over Syria],

nowlebanon 27-DEC-11

[-wrote that]: was engineered by the Syrian regime.

jrep 25-DEC-11

[said:]: They have confused us: is it the work of Al-Qaeda or the United States?

dailystar 24-DEC-11

[said:]: Those who are weak kill, and this is his end.

dailystar 24-DEC-11

[said:]: there are some in the Lebanese government trying to throw Lebanon onto the path of terror in order to protect the crimes of the Syrian regime, keeping in mind that this regime specializes in exporting terrorism.

dailystar 24-DEC-11

[said:]: A puzzling thing indeed and I think that the explosion is the making of the Syrian regime just like it was announced by the Syrian National Council.

dailystar 23-DEC-11

[-said that]: warned Damascus that members of Al-Qaeda [infiltrated Syria] two days ago from Lebanon,

nowlebanon 23-DEC-11

nowlebanon 23-DEC-11

[-said]: I will return despite the dangers. This is the price I am willing to pay,

dailystar 16-DEC-11

[added that:]: it is ridiculous that women can't give citizenship to their husbands [in Lebanon], [politicians] should stop politicizing it.

nowlebanon 15-DEC-11

[wrote:]: No, I won’t.

nowlebanon 15-DEC-11

nowlebanon 13-DEC-11

[-wrote]: This is Bkirki’s historic position,

nowlebanon 13-DEC-11

[-wrote]: Another Syrian message,

trendnews 12-DEC-11

[-said]: Another message from Bashar,

france24 12-DEC-11

[-asked]: The question on every Lebanese citizen’s mind, especially Hezbollah supporters’ minds, is how could Hezbollah's leadership, its secretary-general and the Shura Council justify funding the tribunal they claim to be Israeli?

dailystar 02-DEC-11

[ said]: Funding the tribunal is not a favor,

maannews 28-NOV-11

[-said]: We salute those who took part in the event… and we especially thank the people of Tripoli, Akkar, Donniyeh, Minieh and North Lebanon,

nowlebanon 27-NOV-11

[ said]: Funding the tribunal is not a favour,

france24 27-NOV-11

[-added]: [Gemayel] represented the dreams and hopes that we shared in order to draft the new future of Lebanon. Other martyrs of freedom and independence also fell for the same dreams. However, the [methods] of killing and terrorism haven’t been able to extinguish their flames,

dailystar 20-NOV-11

[-wrote]: This is not the Lebanese will that voted, it is the Hezbollah government headed by Mikati,

dailystar 17-NOV-11

arabtimes 14-NOV-11

[-also said that]: YES.

nowlebanon 14-NOV-11

[-said]: Lebanon’s position is shameful in a historic day in which the Arab League took a position perhaps it has not taken since its establishment,

dailystar 14-NOV-11

[ added]: This is not the Lebanese will that voted, it is the Hezbollah government headed by (Najib) Mikati,

arabtimes 14-NOV-11

[-said]: Finally the Arabs assumed their responsibilities regarding the plight of the Syrian people seeking freedom, democracy and dignity,

dailystar 13-NOV-11

[-said]: It is shameful. I hope the Syrian people know that this government doesn’t represent the Lebanese will,

dailystar 13-NOV-11

[-said]: Where are they taking Lebanon after Hezbollah's Secretary-General Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah announced that he did not recognize international resolutions and Mansour's decision not to recognize Arab ones?

dailystar 13-NOV-11

[-said]: This is not the Lebanese will that voted, its Hezbollah government headed by Mikati,

dailystar 13-NOV-11

[-added]: It is time for us to bow our heads in prayer [and honor] the memory of all who have fallen on the road to freedom and particularly in Syria,

nowlebanon 12-NOV-11

dailystar 08-NOV-11

Franjieh [-said]: When I was interior minister I came under the most violent campaigns. I was being accused of [former Prime Minister Rafik] Hariri's killing,

dailystar 02-JAN-12

Jumblatt [added:]: The [strong-worded] response by Sheikh Saad Hariri to Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah is also not positive or useful. Let the tribunal take [its course].

nowlebanon 05-DEC-11

Nasrallah [-said]: The agreement stipulated that Saad Hariri would cut the tribunal’s funding, withdraw Lebanese judges from the court, and terminate the protocol which binds Lebanon and the court in return for handing over the country to Hariri and his allies,

dailystar 02-DEC-11

Nasrallah [-said]: The agreement stipulated that Saad Hariri would cut the tribunal’s funding, withdraw Lebanese judges from the court, and terminate … the protocol which binds Lebanon and the court … in return for handing over the country to Hariri and his allies,

dailystar 27-NOV-11

Franjieh [-charged]: That’s why I say that his (Saad Hariri’s) hatred towards Assad stems from sectarian feelings and that was demonstrated through his support for (ousted Egyptian leader) Hosni Mubarak and others,

Allouch [-said]: [former] Prime Minister Saad Hariri will make a statement during an independence ceremony by the party organized in Tripoli on the [Nov.] 27.

Jumblatt [-told]: [Hariri used] touching words that I [prefer] to keep for myself,

nowlebanon 22-JUL-11

Safadi [-also said]: I wish Hariri had attended the parliamentary sessions on the ministerial statement and discussed it with the government instead of addressing the cabinet from Paris using expressions that do not fit with his position and status,

Mikati [-also commented]: was taken from the formula presented by Saad Hariri's former cabinet to the Council of Arab Foreign Ministers on March 2, 2011.

Gemayel [said:]: March 14 figures did not meet with Hariri to develop a plan for the future.

nowlebanon 21-JUN-11

Fouad Siniora [said:]: We heard a certain figure give hatred-filled statements about buying PM Hariri a one-way ticket … But would it not be easier for this person to issue a one-way ticket for himself so that he’d rest and allow others to do so?

Gemayel [also said that:]: the situation [in Lebanon] has changed since the [January] collapse of [outgoing] Prime Minister Saad Hariri’s cabinet.
