The International Tribunal Saga

The U.N. Security Council voted Wednesday to unilaterally establish an international tribunal to prosecute suspects in the assassination of Lebanon's former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.

The establishment of the tribunal is not a political victory for the 14th of March group…

The establishment of the tribunal is not against the 8th of March group…

Yesterday on television…I saw and I heard pain, sadness and sorrow…

The pain, sadness, sorrow and tears of 4 women…

Nayla Tueini, May Chidiac, Gizelle Khoury and Yasma Fleihan…

The establishment of the tribunal is not a political victory…

The establishment of the tribunal is a humane victory…

The establishment of the tribunal is to ease and lessen these women’s wounds…

Personal wounds that have been transformed to a national wound…

A nation’s wound that needs to be healed only through the international tribunal…

So, yes I am happy that the U.N. Security Council voted for the tribunal…
