Lebanon justice minister calls for repairing national unity (Dec 08 2006 19:58 GMT) - Beirut- Charles Rizk, Lebanon's minister of Justice warned that time is of the essence to repair our national unity.

In such a case our only hope could be for Lebanon to benefit from such an agreement between the foreign sponsors...but he cautioned what if the opposite happens then Lebanon could be the victim of such an agreement since this could be at Lebanon's expense.
