Hariri press releases

"Then, as the Arab Spring unfolded across the Middle East, the main Sunni leader, Saad al-Hariri, was forced from the premiership by a Hezbollah-led coalition." Forced?  Walid Jumblat switched sides and Hariri lost his parliamentary majority, if that is what you mean by "forced".  And what does the "Arab spring" have to do with the sentence? It was Hariri who was the ally of Mubarak and Bin Ali and King of Bahrain after all.
