March 8 Christians, Hizbullah Delegation Hold Talks in Rabieh

by Naharnet Newsdesk 01 April 2013, 14:26

A meeting was held on Monday between the March 8 alliance Christians and a delegation from Hizbullah at the residence of Free Patriotic Movement leader MP Michel Aoun in Rabieh.

The meeting included Marada Movement leader MP Suleiman Franjieh, ex-Minister Youssef Saade, FPM caretaker Energy Minister Jebran Bassil, Tashnag Party MP Hagop Pakradonian, political aide of the Hizbullah chief Hussein Khalil and Hizbullah Liaison and Coordination Officer Wafiq Safa.

The state-run National News Agency quoted Pakradonian as saying: “Consultations are ongoing.”

However, officials left the residence of Aoun without making any statement.

Later, Franjieh, Saade, Safa and Khalil headed to Ain el-Tineh for talks with Speaker Nabih Berri.

The talks came ahead of the April 5-6 binding consultations between President Michel Suleiman and the parliamentary blocs and independents on the name of the PM-designate after Prime Minister Najib Miqati resigned on March 22.

His resignation further complicated the political crisis in Lebanon after signs began appearing that the Hizbullah-led March 8 forces are seeking a national salvation cabinet while the March 14 opposition alliance wants a neutral government.

Hizballa will dictate to his cronies what to do next...Their loyalties are to Syria and Iran not Lebanon...

keep living in your dream world...M14 was primarily about ousting Syrians out of Lebanon...Aoun is now in bed with Franjieh and Nasrocrap...the ones who held a "rally" thanking ASSad for his service in Lebanon...how does that fit into the M14 equation?

karim, you can argue that M14 are not very honest. Yes. You can say htat they hijacked our demonstrations of March 14, yes. But to say that they are al qaeda sympmathizers, you are waaay off line. They are not.
Nasrallah did his demo on march 8 with ssnp, marada and other similar junk. And unfortunately, GMA has found himself forced to deal with these lowlives.

Hussein Khalil: repeat after me infidels
you put your right fist in
you put your right fist out
you put your right fist in
and you beat your brain about
you do the bloody noggin
and you shake your brain about
that's what Ashura's about

--feel that forehead burn--

you put your left fist in
you put your left fist out
you put your left fist in
until your blood gushes out
you do the bloody noggin
and you jump all around
that's what Ashura's about

you put your right foot in
you put your right foot out
you put your right foot in
and kick your friend in the nuts
he do the outchy crotchy
and he is knocked out
that's what Ashura's about
