Jumblat Says Bkirki Meeting Proposals Will ‘Isolate’ People

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

Progressive Socialist Party leader MP Walid Jumblat slammed on Saturday the agreement issued by the Maronite leaders concerning the parliamentary electoral law.

“This law will lead to the isolation of people from each other,” Jumblat told al-Manar television station.

The Maronite leaders were unanimous on Friday in agreeing on the Orthodox meeting proposals, while stressing the need to hold dialogue with the rest of the Lebanese factions on the matter.

Maronite Patriarch Beshara al-Rahi headed the meeting at Bkirki between Phalange Party chief Amin Gemayel, Free Patriotic Movement leader MP Michel Aoun, the head of the Lebanese Forces Samir Geagea, and Marada Movement chief MP Suleiman Franjieh.

The Orthodox meeting called for each sect to elect its own candidate based on proportional representation during parliamentary elections.

@marc: agree so we can have an intelligent discussion unlike sweating_demon who's already angry at somehing he does not even understand. People like Sweating_demon has nothing else to offer!

My understanding it is based on proportional representation with a caveat that each sect elects its own candidates.

wow, naharnet deleted my comment (which says "shut up, snake, the only isolationist is you") because obviously it doesnt go with its propagandist agenda.

to all fans of the sweating_demon on this site, who tell me that i do this for money, i'm flattered! and extremely happy that you're disturbed, and your brainwashed heads are reacting violently (like cute little bandoul here) to what write.

bandoul still has a long way to go to free itself from the shackles of sectarianism because a remark on joumblatt became a remark on joumblat's sect and bandoul's most probably, in bandoul's little unconprehending mind.
@ibneljabal: i have nothing else to offer but prayers to a mentally zeroed mind like yours who dont see that joumblat aims at dispersing the christians.
bandoul, once again, i'm happy i made you uneasy and i shall renew my efforts with even more vigor (:
