What The Saudi Ambassador Could Have Told Omar Karami

October 29, 2010 · Mustapha Hamoui

Mr. Omar Karami has received the Saudi Ambassador today. There are no details about what was said, but here’s what I think the gist of what the Saudi Ambassador told him is:

< We have noticed your recent trip to Syria. We have also noticed the nice words you said about the Iranian president when he was here. Very cute. I came here to let you know that in the event P.M. Hariri decides to resign, or should Hezbollah decide for any reason to install another Prime Minister by force, we won’t find it cute at all if you stepped up to the fray and offered your services. I’m not here to threaten you but consider yourself warned. >
