    Hariri: I Won't Be Part of a Hizbullah Govt.

    Outgoing Lebanese Prime Minister Said Hariri made it clear Monday that his party will not join a government headed by a member of the Hizbullah. The move comes as President Michel Suleiman meets with the leaders of the various parties to try and establish a new government.

    The Hizbullah announced Monday that it would like to establish a unity government if the group’s candidate for Prime Minister wins a parliamentary majority. The Hizbullah ministers resigned and overthrew the government earlier this month.
