الراعي سيجتمع بالأفرقاء المسيحيين في اليومين المقبلين: أي قانون غير "الستين" مبارك

"They have melons this big at the Vatican."

stick to religion it d be better for you...poor country...

The real problem of Lebanon is that Politicians in lebanon believe that religion and politics can't be disconnected.....they don't realise that religion in politics brought the misery to this country.

From what little we know about the proposed compromise agreement it sounds reasonable and fair especially the part about the new Senate which is long overdue.
Ultimately, a federated system is what should be implemented in Lebanon; not division but something modeled after the US system's federation that was agreed upon circa 1786 AD.
A central government with teeth, a lower house elected based on population demographics and an upper one where each entity in Lebanon is represented equally regardless of numbers.
It is sad but true that there is a very wide chasm between the Lebanese people based on sect and that is where a federated solution will help mitigate future explosion until the chasm is either bridged or slowly closed.

I am sure he means well, I respect him, and hope he brings peace to the Country. Having said that, who is running the country?

"Asked about the sectarian tensions and deteriorating security in the country, the patriarch said: “We are being affected by everything that is happening in the Arab world and we call on the Lebanese not to import the tensions".
This sectarian tension is deeply rooted in religion. Are the various religious leaders in Lebanon wearing the same hats with an "Arz" logo, or under the color of their respective religion? If they can't stay away from influencing politics, how can the expect the people to refrain from staying away from the neighborhood's sectarian tension?

By wearing a legitimate lebanese army uniform regardless of any sect and containing these jihadist with an iron fist , no matter who they are !!!
