Maronite Bishops Council: State Must Protect Private Properties, Prevent Attacks against them

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

The Maronite Bishops Council condemned on Wednesday the attacks on private properties, urging the Lebanese to preserve their land “because they are the basis of their identity and history.”

It said in a statement after its monthly meeting, headed by Patriarch Beshara al-Rahi: “We demand the state to protect these properties according to the constitution and take the necessary security measures to prevent future attacks.”

It also condemned the “disgusting” July 26 attack against French soldiers in the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon, thanking the countries that are participating in the peacekeeping force.

On the government’s duties, the Maronite bishops hoped that it would be successful in its state appointments that should be based on competency.

Why is Sfeir still sitting with them ! he should go to his village and live the rest of his days as a normal person or as a simple priest serving his god and his little village church .

As long as this SOB is around the decision table of Bkirki , we will have problems in Lebanon , because of his ties with his partner the Saudi Hariri and the other Samir eben abou samir .

There is a difference between Phenicien and Pheni Chien, apparently you belong to the second category.

Mr Sfeir was asked to resign. now he is not the main figure but definitely he is still a key decision maker in the Maronite church...Who was the wise guy who said religion should be separated from politics!!!

How can anyone disagree with my leaned highly educated and intellectual fellow Shiite brothers Le Finicien and McBrain, Sfeir is a bad influence and Abou Samir Rahi is not much better in fact non of the bishops are.

Did you know that not even one of then was appointed by the Ayatollah, I know, that's ridiculous!!!!

Besides, is there anything more absurd than "We demand the state to protect these properties according to the constitution and take the necessary security measures to prevent future attacks", where do they think they are, Sweden?!

Le Phenicien actually thanks to the magnificent General Michel Aoun every little village church and cathedral in Lebanon will be returned to their rightful owners and converted into a Husseiniya like in Lassa and Hezbollah protected area like in Jdeideh and Jezzine. The great man GMA himself said there is no difference between Shiite and Christians, most Lebanese agree with him. Le Phenicien Shii3a like you and I will always keep in mind Sayyed Hassan's axiom "this is Muslim land and the Christians were imported.." now we can take it back, we have the arms, the numbers, the popular support, and a Christian figurehead with twelve ministers to cover for us.

Le Phenicien, it's funny how you people try to get your message across by swearing and calling people names...sort of reminds me of a teenager who knows he lost the argument so they start swearing and shouting....Just because sfeir stood by the principles of Lebanon and against Hezbollah, it doesn't make him a SOB, it makes a patriot. The mentality that you are either with the so called "resistance" or a traitor is one of a closed minded person...you know you can be against the "resistant" but for Lebanon...actually, if you against the so called "resistance" then you are with Lebanon, because the "resistance" is against Lebanon, and with Israel! Look at this way, Israel can only survive if there is wars, it gets billions in aid for it's defence, take war away and bye bye money....so by keeping the threat of war, Hazbollah is doing Israel a favor....who is the traitor now....
Please change your nickname, it doesn't do justice to Lebanon

Va te faire mettre. Tu es certainement le rejeton d'une fille publique élevé dans un lupanar.

To Le Phenicien.
Did you take the time to read the message of the Maronite Bishops Council or you flew off the handle as soon as you saw the picture of ex- patriarch Sfeir.
It seems to me that you are a disgruntled Christian, for had you a moslem especially a shiite and called your ex-spiritual leader an SOB you would have dead by now. So go ahead and thank your stars.

Ton général de pacotille commence à s'impatienter. Tu ne lui a pas encore fait sa gaterie journalière. Sa tension est en train de monter et il risque de dire des conneries.Fais vite.

Le Phenicien:
Naharnet n'a pas jugé de bon de rendre public un commentaire dans lequel j'ai utilisé à ton égard les mêmes qualificatifs que tu as utilisés à l'égard du Patriarche Sfeir. Je comprends Naharnet qui a sans doute jugé que ces qualificatifs étaient trop élogieux pur ton indigne personne.

Amen to Sfeir and Rahi, You form the rock and true lubnan al kabeer from falastine to dimashq,
We need to dig the heritage and past of LASA, because of your wise and compassion leadership during the war, you protected al faqih and mahdi in this town, and because of the HEROES on the ground from the Lebanese Forces and the GREAT HAKEEM and his leadership (GOD BLESS HIM) the latter preserved a united LASA
