Geagea: Those Accusing Us of Blocking Electoral Law are Blind, Nasrallah Must Advise Himself before Advising Qaida
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea on Tuesday noted that the March 14 forces are exerting efforts more than others to pass a new electoral law, urging Hizbullah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah to “let the state function” before offering advice to al-Qaida about Syria.
“The current deterioration of the economic situation stems from the lack of confidence in the government politically and security-wise, as it does not have relations with the Arab countries and they're almost severed, at a time when the factor of the Arab countries has an impact on our economy,” Geagea said in an interview with the Central News Agency, in response to Nasrallah's recent suggestion to form an economic action group.
“No action group can succeed as long as this government exists,” Geagea added, noting that “the most important action group in this regard is comprised of business owners and employees, who are both demanding the resignation of the government.”
Turning to the issue of the 2013 parliamentary elections, the LF leader rejected accusations that the March 14 forces are blocking the adoption of a new electoral law, saying those behind such allegations “are either blind or turning a blind eye to the real events in this country.”
“We are the ones exerting the most efforts to change the current law,” Geagea added, reminding that the LF “was the first party to suggest the law drafted by the Orthodox Gathering at a time when some parties cold-shouldered this proposal.”
“We then moved to other suggestions, such as the 50 electorates law which we believe is the closest to the Orthodox Gathering's proposal,” Geagea added.
He charged that the rival Free Patriotic Movement is not seeking to pass an electoral law that would “enhance Christian representation,” but rather to “pass the 13 electorates law put forward by the government, because it would ensure the return of Hizbullah and its allies to power.”
Geagea stressed that the March 14 camp is boycotting government “because the other camp is using assassinations as a political tool, not because we want to obstruct the adoption of a new electoral law.”
Commenting on Nasrallah's warning to al-Qaida that it has been “tricked” into fighting in Syria, Geagea said Hizbullah's leader “must advise himself before advising others and must take a decision, along with his party's Shoura Council, to fix things in Lebanon and let the Lebanese state and its institutions and administrations perform their duties.”
“Before offering advice to al-Qaida, Sayyed Hassan must behave according to this advice, pay attention to the regional and international conspiracies that are being plotted against Lebanon, and act accordingly,” Geagea added.

you still miss the point guys!
no one should have weapons outside the state for things like the ones that happened in the past to happen again. if you do not get this basic concept then you really have a problem.
now we reached a situation whereby due the past events all are armed to the teeth, and any single conflict might be the spark for a wide range civil war. is this what you want guys?
and to the stupidity of mowaten comment: it is not what we can answer to anything, it is rather the bad situation the whole country is in and what are we doing to stop this degradation.
but I do not think that your brainwashed minds even realize for a second the dangerous situation we are now in.

just like HA and many other factions. The difference between him and HA is that HA did it 5 years ago and keeps doing it with lebanese officials whenever they feel threatened by high profile personalities. When they run out of arguments they just eliminate them.

War crimes, storing and firing rockets from urban areas, hiding inside inhabited buildings... not only did they commit war crimes, but they keep committing them. Let's see how they're going to slaughter us when they loose the 2013 elections. They're going to repeat May 7.
Not only this, but they're the only ones whom re-opened the civil war, them and aoun.

Hold on, you say they feel threatened by high personalities! Whom are those personalities and what threat do they do to HA? Geagea must be a high personality why HA never responds to what he mumbles in media.

Mood disorders, the most common of which is bipolar disorder (manic-depression) belong to GMA and his hysteric followers. A room is always reserved for you in Deir El Salib, make use of it.

Lets face the Fact, Dr. Geagea at least paid 11 years in jail for his crimes, but no other war lord went for even one day to Jail for his crimes. War 2006 ? Over 1200 Lebanese Civilians lost their lives not to mention the lose and damage of material, besides whatever he says since then is totally Logic and True.
