    Il serait injuste de ne parler que de Hariri en tant que sponsor des salafistes au Liban. Najib Mikati, prêt-à-tout pour obtenir un soutien populaire dans sa ville natale [NdT : Tripoli], a toujours cultivé un soutien parmi les salafistes du Nord. La libération de Shadi Al-Mawlawi et l’empressement de Mikati à le rencontrer immédiatement en sont des exemples. Un reporter libanais qui connaît la région du Nord du Liban m’a dit que, chez les militants de la région de Dinniyeh, il n’est pas rare de voir des photos de Mikati et de Ben Laden sur le mur.

      The Number One Sunni in Lebanon
      ►http://qifanabki.com/2012/05/21/the-number-one-sunni-in-lebanon

      Shortly after Najib Miqati became prime minister of Lebanon early last year, he went on Marcel Ghanem’s venerable political talk show, Kalam el-Nas.

      Marcel asked him to respond to his opponents’ critique that he was not “Sunni enough” to assume the post from which Saad Hariri had been unceremoniously ejected by Hizbullah and its allies. Miqati responded with a hysterical tirade, which you can watch here. (Translation is below)…

      Mikati: “I don’t accept anyone to question my Sunnism. If there’s a Sunni in Lebanon, it’s me. I won’t accept it! And those who want to hand out certificates (of Sunnism) can go do it on their own. I’m Sunni in belief, Sunni in practice, Sunni in politics, and I’m the number one defender of the Sunnis in Lebanon. If you want to talk about Sunnis, I’m the one with the highest number of Sunni votes. In the ballot boxes of Tripoli, 87% of the Sunnis voted for Najib Miqati, which has never happened in the history of elections in Lebanon. So [whoever is questioning my Sunnism] can get lost, with all my respect for the muftis and who else is concerned with this issue. I’m the Number One Sunni in Lebanon!”
