Geagea Stresses 'Nothing Could Separate' him from al-Mustaqbal
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea has reportedly stressed that “nothing could separate” him from his al-Mustaqbal movement ally in the March 14 opposition alliance.
“Nothing and no one can separate us and we are keen on our ties with al-Mustaqbal movement as much as we have keenness on the best representation (guaranteed by) an electoral draft-law,” Geagea's visitors quoted him as saying.
They told An Nahar daily published Thursday that the LF chief is comfortable to the common objective of the opposition regardless of the differences between its members on the draft-law that provides the best representation for the Lebanese.
“We won't argue on seats or posts and the LF doesn't see any future without al-Mustaqbal,” the visitors quoted him as saying.
They said Geagea had exerted strong efforts for the resumption of the meetings of the March 14's general-secretariat, which convened on Wednesday following a several week standstill.
The Christian LF and Phalange parties from the March 14 alliance have announced their backing to the so-called Orthodox Gathering proposal which envisages Lebanon a single district and calls for each sect to vote for its MPs in a propositional representation system.
Their Christian rivals from the March 8 allies – the Free Patriotic Movement and the Marada – are already staunch backers of the proposal.
But al-Mustaqbal has criticized it for harming the social fabric.
An Nahar quoted al-Mustaqbal sources as saying that the opposition was developing ideas to unify the ranks of the March 14 alliance on the electoral draft-law and "confront the proposals" of the March 8 majority.

So are you claiming that Al Mustaqbal is Al Qaeda? Do you support the mass murderer Bashar?

Because you're either HA or FMP supporter and you're being brainwahed since you were young to hate any one who opposes them. This is exaclty what the problem is in Lebanon. This mentality has to change.
This is, at least, the only politician who sounds "human" when he speaks.

Al-Mustaqbal, or even better, the anglo version the Future Movement, is a cancer in Lebanese society and is harming the social fabric since 1992. Those who reject the Orthodox Proposal would also be rejecting real partnership = Al-Mustaqbal = Salafists = Al Qaeda = FSA Supporters = Terrorists.

'nothing could separate':
If the highest bidder decided to stop issuing cheques, then what?
It would be a something that would cause separation Mr Geagea!!
Naharnet: Geagea is an untouchable; however, keep in mind freedom of the speech that you value dear

why would the biggest traitor (sorry bashir you died young and can't beat gaga) in christian population and lebanon now turn side and become patriotic?
he would remain in same position even if hordes od crazy wahabis would kill 95% of all the christians in lebanon (which of course won't happen).

It is unfortunate that Geagea would double down on his support for the Orthodox Gathering's plan. Very unfortunate.

stop wasting your breath DownUnda. The only way Lebanon will get better is if people start holding whomever they voted for responsible and accountable for their action or in-action. Lebanon is where it is today is because the people that vote for all these "saviors and holy politicians" are the first to justify their theft and give them any excuse they can think of (plausible or not plausible) for their actions. It's amazing when someone points out a politician is stealing, the first words out of his supporters are "your politician is stealing more". you can apply that to any scenario in Lebanon. theft, murder, corruption, terrorism etc...
I wish more people would start thinking like you!

Loved the auto-correct on narcotics gave bar optics, it actually made me pause a second there wondering what on earth bar optics dealing is all about. :) A nice diversion in the usual sea of trolls that populate the comments on Naharnet.

On a more serious note: Zionism, Salafism, Materialism, Communitarism and other factional philosophies expressed here and on the Lebanese public forum are all such grand all encompassing concepts, so big that they actually cloud the real issues.
The population is severely prone to a host of physical and mental illness due to many sources of pollution and an unhealthy environment. Basic third-world level services such as electricity, sanitation, affordable health care, accessible communications, roads, public transport, civil rights, citizens safety, corruption and other topics that make up the foundation of a durable state are all but ignored.
I don't really care about which politician are in bed with each other, or how the pie is divided. I don't care about the oppression of Zionism if to fight it I have to be oppressed. What difference does it make if I live under the boot of this or that regional power.
STOP BEING SHEEP! THINK FOR YOURSELVES and please, stop feeding the trolls.
