A meeting was held on Tuesday between Christian and Muslim figures at the residence of former MP Mikhael al-Daher in response to the “Lady of the Mountain” meeting that is scheduled to be held on Oct. 23.
The meeting was held in the presence of former Ministers and MPs from the tenure of ex-Presidents Emile Lahoud and Elias al-Hrawi.
Former Phalange Party leader Karim Pakradouni, ex-Minister Naji al-Bustani, former minister Fares Boeiz, ex-MP Abdullah Farhat, former Minister Elias Skaff, ex-Deputy Speaker Elie Ferzli and former ambassador to Washington Abdullah Abu Habib were among those who attended Tuesday’s meeting.
A large number of Christian and Muslim political and academic figures and activists from civil society also attended the meeting.
The conferees voiced support for the stances adopted by Maronite Patriarch Beshara al-Rahi.
The “Lady of the Mountain” meeting that will be held at the Regency Palace Hotel in Adma will be aimed at tackling the Christians’ message in the Middle East and stressing their role in the Arab Spring.
The meeting was originally expected to be held at the Lady of Lebanon monastery, but fears that it would be employed for political purposes prompted the change in venue.

There is no need to form any coalition because these farts are PERSONA NON GRATA everywhere except at the doors of their masters, be it the Syrians at the peak of their occupation or Israel, forever, or jerks of the caliber of Mubarak, who himself became a PERSONA NON GRATA and might soon be hanged. 3e2belkon
