Hizbullah head of executive council Sayyed Hashem Saffeidine said that the honoring of Bolton by Lebanese figures is a scandal. He said that the May 10 protest to push for social welfare exposed the ideology of some of the Lebanese who were quick to cast accusations.
He declared "It`s regrettable that some of our Lebanese brothers are still moved by some false dreams that are fabricated by ambassadors like Bolton who`s being honored. Who is John Bolton so that they would rush to pay tribute to him? What has he offered to Lebanon? What we have read in the newspapers is a scandal and a shame. When some of the Lebanese say they want to travel far away to honor the head of Zionism in the United States. This is a shame and this is what destroys the country."
The head of the Future movement MP Saad Hariri, said the Lebanese are used to expressing a rhetoric comments. Saad was trying to clear out his latest statement in which he accused Hizbullah, Free Patriotic movement, and Amal movement of pushing for the destruction of Lebanon.
During a dinner table held in honoring of the members of the Arab economic Forum in Beirut, Hariri said there are countries and people who do not want a stable Lebanon, but noted that everyone at the roundtable of national dialogue wants stability for Lebanon.
