The State Department spokesperson this week stated categorically that the US is not interfering in Lebanese internal affairs. Today, the joke is this: the US ambassador traveled through the snow storm to Zahleh to meet a a minor MP (Niqula Fattush) because she--according to Fattush himself--wanted to pressure him to not vote with the opposition in the formation of the new cabinet. Hasan Nasrallah just made a note of that interference in this speech.
