Lebanon: Jumblatt moves toward Hizbullah-led coalition

AUGUST 3, 2009 22:06

A shrewd politician known for his shifting loyalties, Jumblatt told party loyalists late Sunday that he had entered the alliance with Hariri's Western-backed Sunni and Christian factions "out of necessity and must not continue."
