Speaking to al-Manar TV, Loyalty to the Resistance MP Hussein al-Hajj Hassan said: "We support a full and general reform. If they want to cancel the Council for South; let all the other funds be cancelled too".

He asserted that "It is unacceptable that one person monopolizes the country, its money and development. PM Saniora limits all these roles to himself, although these are not his duties alone, but those of the whole cabinet".

As to the illegal wiretapping he pointed out that "it is an old problem. Ironically, the March 14 coalition was suffering from this problem, yet now it is in a doubtful position".

Hajj Hassan said:" All the majority's experiments in violating the law were successful, and the evidence is the intelligence unit in the Internal Security Forces", adding that the majority must know that they are not the state and that the state is not them.

"I ask [Future leader MP] Saad Hariri why we didn't get gas from Egypt for one dollar, like "Israel" [did.]
However, the asserted that "every state has the right to wiretapping but according to the law, it is the problem of decrees and people's privacy to be respected".

On the parliamentary issue, he noticed that "Amal-Hizbullah alliance would win the elections with or without the Council for South".
As for the four Iranian diplomats, he asked: "Had the four [kidnapped] diplomats not been Iranians; would the issue have differed"?
