Mustaqbal Movement Slams Tripoli Bombings, Urges All Sides to Present Concessions for Lebanon

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

The Mustaqbal Movement condemned on Sunday the bombings in the northern city of Tripoli, urging the security forces to deal firmly with those seeking to harm Lebanon's security.

It said in a statement: “We urge all political powers to present concessions for the nation and place national interests above all else.”

It made its remarks after holding a meeting in Tripoli in light of Friday's twin bombings.

The movement demanded that security measures be bolstered at places of worship and that security forces increase their presence in the northern city.

Powerful car bombs exploded outside two Sunni mosques in Tripoli on Friday.

The first bomb struck in the city center at the al-Salam mosque as worshipers were still inside.

The second explosion struck just minutes later outside al-Taqwa mosque, about two kilometers away, near the port.

Judicial sources told An Nahar daily Sunday that the death toll reached 45 with at least 500 wounded.

There is a Syrian hand behind the past tragic events. But not any Syrian hand, we have another Samaha on our soil. And most likely a backup to the second one as well.(if I were Bachar, I'd have learned from my previous mistake). But m14 isn't accusing M8 of being behind the attacks, but a composant of the m8 alliance: Hezbollah. They are Bachar's tool in Syria and Lebanon although they serve two masters. One in damascus, and another one in Tehran. I keep repeating the same thing, if we want to move on and to forgive the followers, we need to judge the leaders for their crimes. We've been waiting since 2005.... And those laws of amnesty won't do it. Imagine, even Pakistan is more democratic than Lebanon. They arrested Musharraf for the assassination of Bhutto.

We need the same here with Nasrallah and his accomplices.

You're naive if you trust our «authorities» to come up with clear conclusions. There's no way we can trust their judgement.

...well at least in Musharraf's case, there was an investigation.
Benzoza, is the judge + jury + executioner.

Anyone here that accuses one side and not the other is biased and as such has little credibility.

God bless you
I seriously doubt we can ever take out Lebanon's enemies as long as the butcher of Damascus is still in power. He has too many agents in Lebanon in addition to several of our corrupt politicians who support him

Merci coolmec, God bless you too. i Totally agree with you. The butcher is a big problem for all his neighbours and a thriving middle east. He's forcing the near east on standby whilst GCC and others in the middle east thrive economically. What disturbs me most, is how some Christian leaders manipulate their followers be inciting fear by using of egypt's ongoing revolution. Those leaders (I'm not going to name them because it would honour them) forget to mention that regular Muslim citizens of Cairo and Alexandria are now guarding and protect or Copt brothers. The same applies to Syria, Nosra and cie will be crushed when Assad is outsted. And as Christian I would be ashamed of trading other people's life and keep Assad in power just to be spared. This isn't Jesus christ's teachings.
