Al-Rahi: Serious Dialogue Has Been Launched with Hizbullah

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Maronite Patriarch Beshara al-Rahi stated on Monday that the possession of arms outside the state’s authority is unacceptable, reported Voice of Lebanon radio.

He said before reporters: “The time when Hizbullah lays down its arms would be a great day.”

“Let us be reasonable however and admit that most of our problems are external,” he added.

Furthermore, the patriarch revealed that “serious dialogue has been launched with Hizbullah in order for all matters to be laid out in the open at the national dialogue.”

Addressing the government’s performance so far, al-Rahi remarked: “It has not properly functioned since its formation.”

“Lebanon has a role to play in the region and it cannot remain occupied with its own affairs,” he stressed, reported the National News Agency.

He therefore emphasized the importance of the resumption of the national dialogue in order to end the crisis.

In addition, he revealed that he had issued an invitation to United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon to visit Bkirki during his upcoming trip to Lebanon.

I disagree completely on this one. No body I mean No Body can enforce his will on the lebanese leaders if they do not want? They all follow because they want to follow. Our problems are mainly internal. We have different objectives, different goals, and not a common vision. We are prejudice, we hate each other, and will never be a true nation. I may be pessimistic but the boards here are just an example of what this nation is all about.

the filthy zionist information war department has gotten to al Raii, we will never lay down our arms, and if you ever mention the arms again the "serious dialogue" will be halted again and you will get the cold shoulder like your predecessor, the government has been properly functioning since its formation we are making sure of it, Ban Ki-moon should never be allowed in Lebanon let alone Bkirki and put those crusader symbols away when you are in the presence of the Sayyed of the resistance haven't you seen a Van Helsing.

MarTadella , as a fellow Shiite I can appreciate the humor of using a popular Italian cold cut like it was a Christian saint very funny on so many levels hahahaha . It's good that they are too dumb to spot the backhanded insult !

normal patriotic people like our glorious maronite patriarch know that serious dialogue with good intentions is the only way to resolve all problems in our country.

various sectarian haters, traitors and zionist information war department is against that. you will recognize them on naharnet comments section by the hatred they are showing in every post

some retard that is using my nickname has spilled a ton of stupidities including the van helsing movie (i turned of that garbage after 15 min).

he is presenting himself as on the side of resistance, but he is filthy zionist information war department saying that our glorious resistance will never give arms to army.

our glorious resistance will give weapons and merge with army after we liberate all of lebanese territory, including 7 villages and we reduce zionist threat to zero.

the filthy zionist information war department try to read something that is not there. They always have bad dreams and twisted mind. Our glorious resistance is very reasonable and everything can be discussed for the national interests, but for now we have business to do and traitors to deal with. Until then, we will stay vigilante...... oh one more thing before i forget..... dream on and Hasta la Vista

I am so alarmed! Looks like the filthy zionist information war department has hijacked brave heroic brother jabalamel's account. Anyone close to our glorious resistance knows well that under no circumstance we will ever give up out weapons. It's not a even a secret the Sayyed said so, Hajj Nawaf said it. Sheikh Naiim even said that if there are solutions in the region and Israel withdrew and the Zionist problem were ended we will still keep the weapons anyone thinking otherwise is naive, the Resistance - People - Army formula is sacrosanct and no one can tamper with it. Besides those arms are only a small part of an arsenal that transcends borders and are controlled by a higher power. One more thing the real jabalamel is a scholarly individual well read and he would know that Van Helsing does not only refer to the B Hollywood movie by also the hero in Bram Stoker's classic.

You stay vigilante and I will stay vigilant, a brain is a terrible thing to waste lucky you don't have that problem. oh and..... Hasta la Window 7 (not unlike yourself Vista is full of bugs).

Ask Hrezbollah to elinquish their allegiance to "Al wali al faqeeh" as their supreme leader and to acknowledge Lebanon as a final country and the dialogue will be fruitful. Otherwise the talking for talking, that has been done all through the 40 years of lebanese misery, will lead only to more problems.

the filthy zionist information war department openly admits that dialogue is impossible with their terrorist entity.

Serious dialogue needs to be launched to replace our Maronite Patriarch. I say we bring back Sfeir....This current Patriarch will go down in history as the worst of all time, going back to the beginning....Just our luck, to have a Patriarch with a big and stupid mouth, at time like this. He is a waste....Please, give us Sfeir back or give us another, brighter Patriarch....

Gabby, peace, thepatriot, allouchi, mabkhoushi... Al Rahi needs to be taught how to speak and what to say by the likes of you, warriors and farts of high intellect. By the way, do you farts know how to brush your teeth?

The Patriach is telling the truth, all previous dialogs with the filthy milita were not serious as it's halal to lie towards non-Shiites

Jabal habal, and the "filthy zionist scumbag information war department automated propaganda machine 2000" are launching an all out assault on our beloved Lebanon.

So le phenichien who was supposedly maronite gets banned and signs up a new shiite account as jabalamal, jabalamal.fanclub, mowaten, martadela aand galiboun, and he makes comments under each one of the accounts to make it look like there are actually more than one person that actually buy in to the M8 nonsense.

You retard when will you ever learn. Everything you do is monitored b the filthy zionists, everything from the intel chipset in your computer to the router, to the web application this is server is hosted on, it is all zionist. Even you facebook account is owned by the zionists.

When will you learn that the only way to protect yourself from the zionists is to stay in the cave.

oh my goodness, there really is absolutely no reason to be proud of being Lebanese. Le phénicien - look how excited you are that you understood the "MarTadella" joke, thinking that no one else understood it except you, that is very cute. you really are doing wonders for the shiiet reputation, i mean, shiite. see what i did there? of course you did, you are a very smart person after all, maybe you can explain it to the others who aren't clever like you.

Jabalamel - if i didn't know any better i would think you are actually a part of the resistance, that you actually do something that matters or makes a difference for the resistance. but, you don't. the only thing you are capable of doing is sitting at your computer in your moms house all day/night, and pretend you are a resistance supporter! you are worthless, pathetic. the people who are actually part of the resistance would laugh at you, and call you a coward. please, go do something productive, why don't you go volunteer for the resistance, or at a Palestinian refugee camp. or, continue to be the coward that you are, sitting at mama's house drinking your bibroneh. btw, i despise march 14, so i am not a part of the zionist war info dep. i can't say i like march 8 much either though, but i do respect them a bit more than march 14.
