أعلن رئيس مجلس النواب نبيه بري انه "سيدعو لجنة التواصل النيابية الى الاجتماع مجددا من أجل متابعة مناقشة قانون الانتخاب"، مردفاً انه "سيباشر غدا او بعد غد متابعة موضوع تشكيل الحكومة".

ورأى بري في "لقاء الاربعاء النيابي" عن "قلقه من محاولات الفتنة المتنقلة من منطقة الى أخرى"، داعياً الى "تضافر الجهود لوضع حد لمثل هذه المحاولات التي تهدد البلد".

وأضاف انه "ينتظر الانتهاء من موضوع الطعن بالتمديد للمجلس النيابي من أجل البدء بورشة عمل على الصعد كافة"، موضحاً أنه " سيباشر غدا او بعد غد متابعة موضوع تشكيل الحكومة".

وأشار الى أنه "المجلس سيتابع عبر اللجان والهيئة العامة درس المشاريع واقتراحات القوانين المطروحة وإقرارها".

ولفت بري الى انه "سيدعو لجنة التواصل النيابية الى الاجتماع مجددا من أجل متابعة مناقشة قانون الانتخاب في أسرع وقت بشكل مكثف، ووفق مهلة زمنية محددة".

وكان مجلس النواب أقر التمديد لنفسه 17 شهرا تنتهي في 20 تشرين الثاني 2014، في جلسة حضرها 97 نائبا، صوتوا جميعهم للتمديد، وقاطعها نواب "التيار الوطني الحر"، بعد أن فشلت جميع الأطراف السياسية بالوصول إلى قانون انتخاب في أربع سنوات منصرمة.

What other country changes its Parliamentary election laws every time there is an election? In the US, we redistrict every 10 years but that is under the rules of the Constitution and to insure the one-man, one-vote rule with growing and shifting populations from one state or one Congressional District to another.
Lebanon has no one man, one vote law; it has no one man district. It has an excuse not to hold an election, namely that its political class doesn't like the EXISTING election law, the 1960 law. Its not as if there is no law to govern the 2013 elections, it is that the political class does not like it and so they decided to cancel elections.

So we have a Lebanese Parliament that does not follow the laws that it creates. We have a political party that decides when and where to take the country into war, without reference to the Lebanese Council of Ministers, much less the Minister of Defense, the Prime Minister or the Army Chief of Staff.
Instead we have Berri who is afraid he will lose his Speakers Chair if the election is conducted by existing law and he is on the losing side. We have Hassan Nasrallah, who is not in the government, deciding to join a civil war in a neigbhboring state, because his power base demands that he protect his weapons transit point. Those weapons by the way, do not come to the LAF and are distributed to his political party, but straight to the party from a foreign government, Iran, who says it recognizes the Lebanese Republic.

Is it no wonder that the rest of the world does not deal with the Lebanese Government seriously. The rest of the world deals with reality. The institutions of the Lebanese government are mirages. The authority of the Lebanese elected officials, illusory. Lebanon remains as it was when Basher Gemayel was killed in 1982. It was then and it is now a farm. Gemayel's purpose was to turn that farm into a country with a Constitution, democratic institutions and the rule of law. When he fell, so did his flag, and no one has yet to come and pick up his cause.

Beiruti. We had two great statesmen capable of creating a strong united country of institutions where the rule of law applies on everybody.

The first one, Bachir Gemayel was killed by Assad in 82
The second one, Rafic Hariri was killed by Assad in 05

Anyone else who will try to create a country of institutions in Lebanon will be killed by Assad .
Assads have been actively working with all their might to prevent Lebanon's rise.

I hope Assad's stalinist regime rots in hell.

Notice that picture of Berri at the head of the column. The coy grin and how he looks out of the tops of his eyes. I'll bet Mrs. Berri gets that same look right before he does to her what he is about to do to the 2013 elections.

All you got to do these days to ensure your position as an MP or Speaker is to have armed thugs (ortet za3ran) that could threaten the peace anytime you choose. Then you can get away with violating alll constitutional rules and laws. Berri is a shinning example of such tactics.

@Lebanon_first. Rafiq Hariri came to the cause that Basher Gemayel championed, but he came late. Hariri thought that he could bring Lebanon back economically and then the political reforms would follow as the players would not want to lose the economic gains by continuing to play the political games. He cooperated with Syria, as a fact on the ground, to work his economic recovery plans.
I among others warned him against this. That the order of things was to repair the political system first, otherwise, the economic recovery would be built on sand. But he went his way, and now see what has happened.
In 2004 he saw the light and saw that Lebanon had to be free of Syria if it were to come back economically. When he showed he wanted to be independent, he made it to the Syrian hit list and was killed.

@beiruti.
I concur with your facts.
I guess we agree that whomever will make lebanon strong will be killed by assad the dog.
I wonder what the solution is.

You are with Shia za3ran but not with Sunni za3ran. You are with welayat elfaqih but not with the Umma. You are so subjectively objective

You exposed your hypocrisy once again. Only a fellow snake would support a snake like berri.

Berri is going to bring the subcommittee back from the dead... He promised “intense” talks, what where they doing the last time around sleeping?
