Hezbollah
For many younger Lebanese, Sunday brought a first chance to vote in a national election after parliament twice extended a term that expired in 2013.
After previously announcing his resignation while in Saudi Arabia, the Lebanese prime minister has now suspended that decision upon returning to Beirut.
Saad al-Hariri also hinted that he could take back his resignation.
France became the first Western country to indicate that Saudi Arabia was holding Hariri against his will.
WHAT'S HAPPENING
Saad al-Hariri said he believed there was an assassination plot against him.
The president even disparaged the efforts of the U.S. military.
The US is the leading country that unilaterally brands entities around the world as terrorist.
“The incident in Syria corresponds completely with Israel’s policy to act to prevent Iran’s smuggling of advanced weapons via Syria to Hezbollah.”
