Thanks voyager for your concern about christain rights! The patriarch is doing a lot for christain rights. Starting with unity!
What Army? You will know of this army when they come to arrest your party members for constantly trying to incite sectarian war.
Youseph haddad, you know perfectly well that the most of the chaos in post saddam Iraq, was caused by Sunni anger at the fall of their hero saddam, and the fear of Shiite/Iranian domination. The al Qaida and Sunni insurgency were coming from Saudi, Yemen, Syria and even tripoli in Lebanon. It was funded by the wahabi and salafists movements. The same groups working in the Syrian uprising. Yes Iran played it's role and syria opened the borders but the end result was absolute chaos and destruction, and ethnic cleansing and massacres of the christains by Sunni extremists.
This is what is install for Syria if they are not careful, and the batrak in all his wisdom and holiness is cautioning peace and real reform instead of the geopolitical mid east war being waged by the USA, Israel, Saudi Arabia and Iran. They lost Egypt and they are now trying to even up the score with Syria.
Mustapha...FYI, Batrak Rahi is a cardinal and patriach of Antioch. He is the second highest rank after the Pope. A monseigner is a level above a local priest and at least 3 lower than Cardinal.
I'm quite sure what u mean by no more saad hariri politics in Syria or Lebanon if the killing continues? Does that mean people should be encouraging more killings?
"bassil’s objective has become clear: evading the supervision of Arab and international funds,” al-Mustaqbal charged". Really? Coming from those that cancelled salim el hoss's agreement with Vienna to investigate corruption and misappropriation of funds in 2001. Spend a billion dollars on the hariri investigation and stl, but not on electricity law that has been drafted exactly the same way as every other funded law over the pasted 20 years!
As for the Karam case...Another lie and attempt to mislead the public. He was not found guilty of high treason. he was found guilty of having contact with an Israeli agent 10 years ago in Paris. If this is high treason, then what of Elias murr who gave plans of where Israel should bomb?
Fidatto... I'm not a stickler for clerical titles, but Ive noticed mustapha call the batrak, monsignor a number of times now and thought that it might help him not to sound too patronizing,when he feels the need gives advise to someone who he seems to not even know what his position is.
As for the person who commented as "mowaten" and "le phenician"... I know that the imposter is only trying to stir the racist sectarian pot.
Thanks to all those patronising losers, who are preaching to Cardinal and Patriarch of Antioch, Beshara el Rahi, Christian values and beliefs. Especially by those who have never set foot in a church.
Bkirki is not "turning orange or yellow" as some idiots suggest. His eminence is uniting the Maronites into a realistic position. he is stating the obvious, regarding what is happening in Syria and what could still occur if it continues. Promoting peace and unity among fellow Lebanese instead of the conspiracy that mustaqbul (saadadine hariri) and their foreign bosses, have been trying hard to implement here and in Syria. The batrak knows what his position demands. Unity! "United strong, devided we fall". God bless you batrakna!
Expatriate vote is a democratic right that all real democracies practise. If you are a citizen then you have the right to vote even if residing in another country. However, very little people have somfar registered and most Lebanese living in real democracies would not waste their time with the rubbish of Lebanon's list system, where tempory alliances are made and worth less than the paper these "lists" are printed on.
Change the system of vote buying, media bias and misleading "lists" first, and then maybe more people will be interested in voting.
Anyway, m14 loss will be due to the work the government does: electricity, internet speeds, cheaper mobile phone call rates, more balanced budget etc. This will reelect the government or the opposition, not empty rhetoric of "arms".
What a breath of fresh air, batrakna is... Sometimes the truth may hurt but its still the truth! Sorry mustaqbul movement and their gimps and foreign bosses. The batrak should only be traveling for pastoral visits and he will be preaching to the Lebanese Maronites, those of Ohio state, where the next presidential election might be decided as it was in 2004.
Let's not forget that Cardinal Patriach of Antioch al-Rahi, is also the leader of all Catholics and Maronites in Syria.
