March 14 says meeting with Rai was ‘very positive, friendly’

Share:

Former Lebanese president and current Phalange Party leader Amin Gemayel and Lebanese Forces bloc MP Strida Geagea described the meeting held earlier on Friday between Maronite Patriarch Bechara Boutros al-Rai and a March 14 delegation as “very positive and friendly.”

Gemayel told reporters in Bkirki.:

“We hope this meeting would form a basis for a phase where we all [foster] principles that preserve Lebanon, especially amid the [current] domestic and foreign difficulties.”

He added:

“We discussed the Syrian issue… [and we all] agreed that Lebanon should not be dragged into the current struggle in Syria.”

On her part MP Geagea told reporters:

“Amid the [changes] in the Arab world, we asked the Patriarch to remain unbiased and keep the Patriarchate beyond all conflicts and choices.”

The Bcharre MP added that the meeting was “historical,” and that she was “amazed by the Patriarch’s openness.”

Geagea also said that “the meeting was concluded with an agreement that will not be revealed to the media.”

Rai came under fire last September from the opposition March 14 parties but won praise from March 8 politicians for his comments during his visit to France . “Syrian President Bashar al-Assad is open-minded and should be given more chances to implement the reforms” he announced.

He also indirectly defended Hezbollah’s arms by linking the party’s arsenal to the termination of Israeli occupation of Lebanese territory and the return of Palestinian refugees to their homeland . Even MP Walid Jumblatt who defected from March 14 alliance was very critical of Rai’s statements.”

The Patriarch also faced criticism by March 14 coalition, especially LF leader Samir Geagea after the former said that “the closest thing” to democracy in the Arab world was Syria and that he was against “turning the Arab Spring into winter.”

The situation between March 14 and Rai deteriorated to the extent that some started calling him Aounist , in reference to Hezbollah’s ally MP Michel Aoun

        To those enfeebled by minds that will not accept women as having better brains than most men, and for not accepting them at least as equals in any human sense, the woman with such beauty as well is sadly the only one who can draw sufficient attention from the so-called men that they condescend to listen to her. Tsk.
        Cudos to a beautiful woman who strives to contribute in service to a public life and not merely lie back on a couch, where she could easily attract the feeble men to serve her anyway.
        Women – long held down – are beginning their own ‘spring’. You would do well to listen to them.

        Yo, I have no problem if you attack someone on their records, but to do so on their personality and behind their back, that is when I draw the line. You are not man enough to say that to her face, I repeat….You are just a coward, blinded by the zabrallah propaganda and using the venue to propagate your ideology. A’int going to work.
        You would not know a woman from a hole in a wall, as long as you have the burqa’s, veils and the total wrapping around your women’s faces and bodies. Is this going to hurt your feeling NOW.

          Have nothing against woman 5th, only ones that feel they need to spread their legs to get places.
          And this whore is unfortunately one of them. Not sure why you are all up in arms about this. Like I said, I’m only stipulating the truth

          A dope like you cant hurt my feelings, And me not knowing a woman from a hole in the wall, Now that’s original.
          In relation to the me wrapping my woman in a burqa or veil, you are so of the mark. Anyway it doesn’t change the fact that this bitch has been around.

          Calling me a coward, if that’s the case then almost every person who gives his or her opinion on this site or any other site for that matter is a coward including you.
          So just relax. Each person has Wright to give their opinion, however in this bitches case it is fact.
