The Jordanian weekly al-Hilal said in an exclusive news in its Tuesday issue that the emergency meeting for the representatives of 10 Islamic parties from various Arab states, which was recently held in Tehran came at the request of President Bashar al-Assad during his recent visit to Tehran.
One representative of one of these parties who took part in the said meeting told al-Hilal that President al-Assad asked the Iranian administration to pressure Hizbullah to ease down conditions in Lebanon, awaiting the results of the Israeli elections.
