W460

French presidential envoy Jean-Yves Le Drian discussed “three points” with Hezbollah during his visit last week to Lebanon, sources close to the Shiite Duo said.

Below are the three points as reported Monday by al-Liwaa newspaper:

“1. What are the chances of the Franjieh-Salam initiative after the June 14 session and what are the means and ideas that Hezbollah possesses and can present to boost the success chances of this initiative?

2. How ready is Hezbollah to take part in inter-Lebanese dialogue with an agenda consisted of a single item related to the presidential file – not in a broad dialogue in the vein of the Saint-Cloud or Doha conferences – and what are the party’s remarks over the proposed agenda and the points it wants to include?

3. Stressing France’s continued insistence on the Franjieh choice and seeking to find the appropriate chances to push forward this choice, despite Le Drian’s acknowledgement of the difficulty of the mission.”

Moreover, the sources said that Le Drian “did not propose any choices to replace Franjieh, did not raise the idea of a third candidate at all, and did not mention Army Commander Joseph Aoun.”

Sar El Waet next episode may be most important ever, discussing the only permanent solution. We’re all tired of talking heads and political mafia only interested in selling lies and backdoor self-preserving deals. We’re also tired of Sin-Sin and all foreign envoys dining and schmoozing with the political mafia while planning deals with Iran. Anyone who believes we are not under occupation or Lebanon can recover while HizbIran maintains its arms must have his head examined. Federalism is a band-aid while solution in simple split btw Free Lebanon and Hizbollastan with already distinct borders (south of Sidon to Nabatye, Baalback & Hermel). Dahie will remain in Free Lebanon and expected to double in population as most Shia will refuse to live in Hizbollahstan with Iranian model rules (a great prison and middle-age theocracy). Hopefully a survey of Shia if they would live in Iran-type Hizbollastan would set the stage. Check how many want to immigrate to Iran for an answer!
