Hariri on Syria: "I have never seen a more cowardly regime than that of Bashar Assad's"

“I have never seen a more cowardly regime than that of Bashar Assad’s,” said lawmaker Saad Hariri, blaming the Syrian president for Ghanem’s death. Hariri heads the anti-Syrian majority in Parliament, a role he stepped into after his father, former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri, was killed by car bomb in 2005.

Cabinet member Ahmed Fatfat also blamed Syria for the attack, saying Damascus wanted to derail recent efforts by majority and opposition leaders to begin presidential elections on Sept. 25.

“It is the only regime that does not want presidential elections in Lebanon to be held,” Fatfat told The Associated Press.

Pro-Syrian President Emile Lahoud also implied Ghanem’s death was meant to undermine the upcoming elections, saying “it is no coincidence that whenever there are positive signs” that someone is killed.
