Geagea Says 'Serious' Dialogue with Aoun Aims to Limit Tension
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Lebanese Forces chief Samir Geagea said Wednesday the expected dialogue with his rival Free Patriotic Movement leader Michel Aoun is “serious.”
“Dialogue with FPM chief MP Michel Aoun is serious and not just limited to the presidency. It goes beyond that,” Geagea told a delegation of LF engineers who visited him in Maarab.
The talks aim at soothing political tension in the country similar to the dialogue taking place between al-Mustaqbal movement and Hizbullah, he said.
No date has been yet set for the talks between Aoun and Geagea. But both presidential candidates have expressed readiness to meet.
Al-Mustaqbal and Hizbullah representatives held a meeting under Speaker Nabih Berri's auspices in Ain el-Tineh last week.
The second round of talks is expected to be held on January 5 to limit Sunni-Shiite tension and discuss the presidential deadlock.
Lebanon has been without a president since May. The rival March 8 and 14 alliances have failed to elect a successor to President Michel Suleiman over their differences on a compromise candidate.

Sorry Mr Geagea, but my problem with the caporal is independent from you and him. I consider the Caporal as the enemy from within and the destroyer of the Christians.

Independently from everything else, the Caporal (failed his entrance exam at 7arbiyeh Military School) is corrupt, liar, megalomaniac, mentally ill, agent to Ebola, traitor to Syria and Iran, disloyal to his best friends (General Fayez Karam, General Nadim Lteif, etc.), deserter, cheater (took all the donations and put them under an account in his wife's name?), uses - contrary to what he says - nepotism, feodalism and anti-democratic principles. How can anyone follow another Hitler?

Farty is brainwashed. 1) A brainwashed doesn't realize he is brainwashed; 2) A brainwashed see conspiracies everywhere; 3) There is no hope for a brainwashed to be cured.

Now, to answer how do I know? Nothing in this country can remain a secret.The son of the General (who then was Colonel and Director of 7arbiyeh) told me.

If the Director of 7arbiyeh did not let the Caporal retake the exam (a very helpful Wasta), the whole destiny of this so called Caporal would have been different and the country would not have been destroyed as it is.

Think about: all other attributes are true (even being corrupt: when someone take all the donations and put them into an account in his wife's name, what is it if not stealing?); so if all other attributes are true, how can any sane person follow this madman?
Any Christian following a traitor, is a traitor himself.

FT, in typical Aouny style, a debate turns personal and of rather uncouth personal language. For all intents and purposes, most have abstained from the personal stuff, focusing principally like I did on levying criticism on the old man himself, in other words, on Aoun. Why ya FT do you direct instead your attacks on those who criticize Aoun or anyone you seem to support? Anyway dear FT, Happy New year 2015, may it finally unite us all Lebanese, all of us living under the same and one law, as equals, no more, no less.
