15/08/2010 At an Iftar he hosted in Qoreitim, Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri said “many were expecting me to deliver a major political speech today and expectations were high; however, there is a lot to be said, but I choose when to speak up and no one can impose the timing.”
“Saad Hariri and all the Lebanese want the truth and nothing more than that, and we also want stability and to know who assassinated my father and the rest of martyrs,” he said.
The PM added that chaos and instability were manmade things and they don't come out of the void. “We as officials in this country can face the vilest of attacks, whether from Israel or other sources, if we act wisely among each other,” Hariri indicated.
“All things that concern the country also concern me at the personal level: first because I am the son of martyr premier Rafik Hariri, and second because I am the head of all of Lebanon's government. Especially that we saw martyrs falling in the South during the past days and several developments happened concerning the Special Tribunal for Lebanon, but everything will be said at the appropriate time,” Hariri added.
The premier highlighted the fact that he had abstained from making statements "throughout the last period." "I will continue like that because I want calm, because through calm we can talk to and hear each other, but through screaming, no one would be able to hear the other. We want to calmly discuss everything we approach in this country," Hariri added.
