Spain Ready to sell out Lebanon in order for Syria to Broker Peace

According to Expatica, Spanish foreign minister,Miguel Angel Moratinos met with Syrian President Bashar Assad asking him to broker a peace agreement. He wants Syria to use its influence over Hezbollah. During the press conference afterwards Moratinos said that Syrian leaders were

going to exercise all their influence on Hizbullah, but the circumstances and the political and military context in the Lebanon has to change.

If the West were to agree with Assad on this then it will fulfill a major objective of the Syrian government and that objective it is to retake control of Lebanon. Syria wants to reverse its losses that occurred last year when the Lebanese masses demanded Syria to withdrawal its troops from Lebanon. After the withdrawal, the Lebanese government held parliamentary elections in which the anti-Syrian alliance won the majority of seats and took the prime ministership. In a posting below, there is a quote from Lebanese MP Walid Jumblatt. In the quote he predicts that the West is going to sell out Lebanon, for the sake of Hezbollah restraint, to Syria and Iran.

Hezbollah started the war with Israel because of Lebanon not Israel. The pro-Syrians in the government wanted to destablize the anti-Syrian government. More and more people were clamoring for Hezbollah to disarm, so Hezbollah did the only thing that they could to provoke to a crisis.
