At Taif conference, Bukhari warns of 'further descent into the unknown'
A conference organized by Saudi Arabia’s ambassador to Lebanon to mark the 33rd anniversary of the Taif Accord was held Saturday at the UNESCO Palace in Beirut, in the presence of a host of politicians.
“This conference reflects the kingdom's keenness on preserving Lebanon's security, stability and unity,” the ambassador, Walid Bukhari, told the attendees.
“At this timing, it is important to preserve national accord and France has stressed to us that there won't be any intention or proposal to change the Taif Accord,” Bukhari added.
“The alternative to the Taif Accord would be further descent into the unknown,” the ambassador warned.
Speaking at the same conference, Progressive Socialist Party leader Walid Jumblat said: “Before discussing amending the Taif Accord, we must first implement it and, as the son of Kamal Jumblat, I’m not opposed to the abolition of political sectarianism and the implementation of other reforms.”

You agree though that she identifies the problems, which is half the work…and I believe it’s incumbent upon all of us to come up with the solutions. We definitely can’t and shouldn’t rely on the corrupt , terrorist, kleptomaniac ruling mafia .

Nasrallah protecting israel and pretending to be the resistance. Making the shia look like the defenders of truth and the sunnis as the traitors. Strategic game played by iran taking advantage of the silence of the corrupt arab dictators and pretending to fill a role without actually filling it. Since nasrallah has made a security deal with the zionists, why doesn't he disarm his hizb? Is it because the arms are there to rule over the sunnis in particular and not as resistance against israel?
