 Prime Minister Rafic Hariri - News
Head of the Future bloc in Parliament MP Saad Rafic Hariri said arson attacks against the Danish Consulate in Achrafieh, and the rioting that destroyed private property in that Beirut district aimed to torpedo national unity.
At a Paris news conference that followed the rioting in Achrafieh, which witnessed a large protest near the Danish Consulate, against some anti-Muslim media caricatures in Europe, MP Hariri said the violence harmed Islam and targeted Muslims not the Christians, since it embarrassed Muslims and will have very negative repercussions.
MP Hariri said he will not shield any shortcomings if there were gaps in security, but told reporters that security forces did not want to cause bloodshed, although those who infiltrated the protests sought confrontations with armed forces.
