Let Lebanon and Syria deal with it themselves. Keep the corrupt, meddlesome UN out of the business of criminal investigations, trials and punishments!

"BEIRUT (Reuters) - The son of slain former Lebanese Prime Minister Hariri's Rafik al-Hariri called on Saturday for an international court to punish his killers as pressure mounted on Syria after a damning U.N. probe into the murder."


I understnad the motivation.

And I understand what the President said.

But what happens when the next person they want to charge is a U.S. official and we are on record as supporting this U.N. process?

I would say let Lebanon handle it themselves, and keep the international dirtbags on the sidelines.

The other court I would trust in this case is the UAF.

So, he wants his father's killers to go free?

"Let Lebanon and Syria deal with it themselves."

Let me help you understand so you may make a better recommendation.

The Syrians occupied Lebanon and imposed order through Syrian secret service agents inside Lebanon. The people of Lebanon elected a president who was not a pawn of Syria. Syria and Syrian intelligence along with Syrain secret agents in Lebanon assassinated the president and 24 other innocent citizens using a car bomb in an act of terrorism.

The signifcance of this is that the head of Syria was party to the assination of the president of a neighbor country. Syria not only assinated him but used terroist tactics to do so. Syria is already known as a terrorist state. This time they are caught red-handed. The leaders of Syria must be held to account.

I hope this helps.
