makari , farid 2Lebanon’s Deputy Speaker MP Farid Makari  slammed   Hezbollah Secretary General  Hassan Nasrallah’s Thursday  speech  accusing  the party  of  obstructing the formation of a government, according to a  Friday report  by the  An Nahar newspaper .

He told  the daily: “He shut the door on the negotiations to form a new cabinet through refusing to relinquish his camp’s conditions.”

Nasrallah  demanded in a speech on Thursday that the March 8 camp participate  in the cabinet in proportion to  to its parliamentary share.

” The participation of the parties in the cabinet should be relative to the number of parliamentary seats they hold”, Nasrallah  said during a speech marking the 25 anniversary of the founding of Hezbollah Radio Station ” al  Nour”

Prime Minister-designate Tammam Salam’s efforts to form a new government have been met with the March 8 camp’s insistence to obtain veto power.

Salam’s sources told An Nahar Friday that the request for the camp to be represented in proportion  to its parliamentary share is a veiled demand for veto power.

“Salam is adamant in rejecting the blocking minority and he had informed the March 8 camp of this position,”  Salam’s sources  stressed to An Nahar.

    There’s more than one ‘Obstruction’. And not the first time for this sort of thing …
    ” Hezbollah detained a journalist Friday and interrogated him for five hours before releasing him.
    Rabiea Damaj, who works as a reporter for the Lebanese Forces website, was about to file a story he wrote at an Internet cafe in a southern suburb of Beirut when he was arrested by Hezbollah security members and interrogated for five hours.
    Media Against Violence, a watchdog organization, denounced Damaj’s arrest and described it as a return to intimidation tactics used during Syria’s occupation of Lebanon. It urged the Interior and Justice ministries as well as the media and relevant security authorities to pursue those involved and hold them accountable.
    The Lebanese Forces issued a statement describing the detention as illegal: “[It] contradicts the simplest aspects of the state’s authority and civil freedoms, not to mention the freedom of journalists.”
