Breaking News: Hezbollah demands new government
The militant group threatened to force early elections with street protests and the resignation of its two Cabinet ministers if its demands are not met.

The group, which is backed by Syria and Iran, is demanding a new “national unity” Cabinet in which the militants and their allies would hold veto power over key decisions.

Hezbollah has been demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Fouad Siniora since the terrorist group sparked a 34-day war with Israel this summer that left much of Lebanon in ruins.

The threatened street protests could turn violent if pro-government demonstrators confront Hezbollah marchers.
