Geagea Urges Lebanese to Back Suleiman to Salvage Lebanon
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea called on the Lebanese to express support to President Michel Suleiman to salvage the state, stressing that the March 14 alliance has no other option but to back Prime Minister-designate Tammam Salam in order to reach a neutral cabinet.
“Suleiman is the only remaining symbol for legitimacy,” Geagea said in comments published in al-Akhbar newspaper on Wednesday.
He pointed out that Suleiman and Salam “has an intention to form the a new cabinet.”
The LF leader noted that the cabinet formation process will reach an end when the parliamentary blocs agree on a “neutral cabinet with rotating portfolios and without a veto power to anyone.”
“Communication with Salam is ongoing and he is holding onto his stance and conviction that the cabinet should be divided equally between the March 14 alliance, the March 8 coalition and the centrists.”
“He (Salam) has no intention to resign,” Geagea added.
The Christian leader stressed that the situation in the region had an impact on Lebanon, especially, that Hizbullah is involved in the turmoil in the region.”
The Hizbullah-led March 8 alliance wants an all-embracing cabinet while the March 14 coalition is pushing Salam to keep Hizbullah away from the line-up over its participation in the war in Syria alongside troops loyal to President Bashar Assad.
Salam is seeking to form a cabinet divided equally between the Lebanese foes and the centrists and rejects to grant the veto power to any party.

Geagea is correct: we need to back what the president is saying: no more people/army/resistance.
it is time for this militia to go.

“Suleiman is the only remaining symbol for legitimacy,”...good words from Geagea, rally around Suleiman and Salam and if you can not form a neutral technical government them form an equal split government. This is a good starting point, the blocks that put up conditions don't want a change for the better... they want the same old failed approach.

Truth hurts?
Without the past there would be no present nor future ! It seems to me you don't know who is your grandfather is, or your farther , nor even your children ! As a matter of fact ( if you are old enough ) you might not even know who your " grandchildren" are !!
You get how important the past is now ?
What a very very low IQ you are!

@lebanonforever, I am not criticizing but I thought wolves rarely bark and often howl instead. Now if you contemplate why they howl, you will fully understand the behavior of the person you are making fun of :)
