Al-Rahi: For a Civil, Democratic State Respecting Diversity within Unity
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Maronite Patriarch Beshara al-Rahi on Sunday called for a “civil, democratic and modern state based on a new social, national contract that improves the implementation of the 1943 National Pact.”
In his New Year’s Day sermon, al-Rahi said that “the modernization of this formula requires respecting diversity within unity, respecting freedom of opinion and thought, and working for the benefit of all citizens and regions.”
The Lebanese must also “comprehend Lebanon’s cultural message in the Christian and Islamic worlds and in the Arab region, which is based on its historic experience and geographic location on the Mediterranean.”

In other words, hang Geagea, Jumblat, Hariri and all of the traitors and collaborators, aka March 14. Otherwise, there is no hope that the brainwashed will be healed and the country will get back on its feet.

patriarch Rahi.... so do you still stand behind the oppressive dictatorial regime of Syria or a civil democratic and modern state?

Hezbollah is talking about changing the national pact too. Is this a coincidence? Very poor timing at the least for Rahi to talk about changing the basis of the republic at a time when the nation is under the choke hold of a foreign occupying power.
When we recover the nation, then among the Lebanese only should this discussion take place
