Report: Nasrallah Hails Firm Alliance with Aoun

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Hizbullah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah stressed that the alliance with Free Patriotic Movement leader MP Michel Aoun is firm and will not collapse, al-Akhbar newspaper published on Thursday.

Nasrallah hailed Aoun’s stances, noting that his party is exerting efforts to resolve the dispute among the March 8 parliamentary majority, the daily said.

Nasrallah told Hizbullah senior leaders that the relations with the FPM should be developed to a better level.

The secretary general stressed the importance of maintaining the alliance between Hizbullah, AMAL and the FPM.

The parliament’s approval of a draft law proposed by the joint parliamentary committees to include all the Electricite du Liban workers in a selection process for permanent employment created a rift between AMAL and the FPM, which prompted the Change and Reform bloc to boycott the parliament.

Christian lawmakers lashed out at Speaker Nabih Berri, who is the AMAL leader, arguing that around 80 percent of them belong to non-Christian sects and most of them support Berri, who is a Shiite.

Energy Minister Jebran Bassil also accused Hizbullah of being a “spectator” as the speaker “violated the protocol” by not discussing his proposal to allow 700 contract workers to stand for an official exam, out of some 2,500 employees.

His suggestion also calls for allowing the rest to become employees at private companies under a three-month probation period as the company can’t contain all of the employees.

Al-Akhbar reported that the FPM and Hizbullah held several meetings to swiftly resolve the crisis and discussed the controversial issues as consultations were kicked off with Berri to reach a solution that satisfies all parties.

FPM sources reiterated the Change and Reform parliamentary bloc’s conditions where finding a solution to EDL’s contract workers strike is a priority.

The workers have been holding an open-end strike for the past three months, vowing to continue their protest until the parliamentary decision is published in the official gazette and until their May and June salaries are paid.

And where would be the harm of him allying with Saad? That is, of course, if Saad comes back to his senses.
Why are you so against the Lebanese being all together on one united front?

what are you trying to say FT/Mowanted/rudes/ etc... ?

If their alliance wasn't in taters, they wouldn't be trying to reassure the public opinion. As easy as that !

This is how it should be, Christians and Muslims don't differentiate between each other and live in peace, not like how the salafists are treating Christians in Syria with the support of the west.

What a useless comment...see only the things that suit you, in the way that suit you.

One thign good will come out of this alliance: they will soon fall together :) keep aligning yourselves, it will facilitate things for the near future.

One thing to notice about body language in the photo: Nasrallah's hand position above Aoun's and the latter's face expression. That is what's known as 'the alpha handshake' which clearly shows who's the one wearing pants in the relation.

How is it called an "alliance" when one (nasrillat) controls and dominates the other (Claoun). These are the same people that Aoun called terrorists in US congress in 2003!!! How the hell are there still some people in Lebanon who actually listen to this senile old fart?

Previously posted: Part 1…” I have emailed back and forth with the webmaster and he and I do not see eye to eye on a few things. Some of the moderators are M8 supporters while others are M14 and they can't agree on how to manage the content in a fair and consistent manner. This website is neither mature nor serious about its identity and is mismanaged by biased unprofessionalism. I will not share the stage with those who advocate shooting M14 supporters in the head and dissolving them in acid and get away with such language. The ID under which that filth was posted repeatedly should have been disabled if nothing else but to send a message to the members that they will have to come up with a new ID every time they spew such vile rhetoric only to have their account disabled again and again.”

I am free to believe that Israelis have a fundamental right to have a country and I feel just as strongly that every Palestinian refugee has the right to return to a Palestinian state existing side by side to an Israeli one. It's the principal of it my friend, I am free and no one can censor me.”

do this or i will send you someone to kill you.. This is it all. hizbo is holding lebanon and the lebanese hostage. Its all about them taking over the country. all we hear from march 14 is we will do this we will do that but they are doing nothing at all. Civil war is a must or the lebanese will wake up on morning to see signs ordering women to wear borkas or get killed. The only solution is a war against these thugs . all them meetings and talks are bull.

It is good that the alliance is strong and that they are tightly bonded one to the other. With their patrons going, down, it is for sure they will all hang together, hopefully from the same rope.

you honour the criminal bastard by givin' him a cute name (hassouni). Let's not forget he's a terrorist.
