March 14 Coalition Uses Lion King to Accuse Hizbullah of Al-Hariri Assassination

Following are excerpts from "The Lion King – the Lebanese Story," produced by the March 14 Coalition, which aired on the Internet on February 26, 2011:

Mufasa/Rafiq Al-Hariri: Listen, Sa'd. All that you see here is Lebanon – the land of all Lebanese. A ruler is like the sun, which rises and sets. The day will come, my son, when my sun will set, and the sun of a new leader will rise.

Simba/Sa'd Al-Hariri: And he will rule Lebanon in its entirety?

Mufasa/Rafiq Al-Hariri: All of it. All the places under the sun.

Simba/Sa'd Al-Hariri: What about the security compound [of Hizbullah] over there?

Mufasa/Rafiq Al-Hariri: That area is beyond our jurisdiction, and it is very dangerous.

Simba/Sa'd Al-Hariri: But it is part of Lebanon?!

Mufasa/Rafiq Al-Hariri: Listen, my son. Some areas have succumbed to foreign interests.

Simba/Sa'd Al-Hariri: What do you mean?

Mufasa/Rafiq Al-Hariri: Everything in Lebanon must follow a certain balance, so that all, from north to south, get what they rightfully deserve.

Simba/Sa'd Al-Hariri: Even the people in the security compound?!

Mufasa/Rafiq Al-Hariri: The balance is necessary to please all the religious sects and political parties. After all, we are one nation.

[...]

Hyena I: Sayyed Hassan [Nasrallah], the people are stronger with Rafiq [Al-Hariri].

Hyena II: We cannot beat them.

Scar/Nasrallah: Brothers, every problem has a solution.

Hyena I: We have tried everything, and there is only one thing we can do...

Hyena II: What do you mean? To kill Rafiq?

Scar/Nasrallah: That's what is required.

Cut to Mufasa clinging for dear life on the edge of a cliff

Mufasa/Rafiq Al-Hariri: Sayyed...!! My brother...!!! Help me...!!

Scar/Nasrallah: Goodbye, Rafiq.

Scar pushes Mufasa off the cliff

"For the sake of the freedom of Lebanon, we shall never forget."
