God willing we may be done with this issue before the (March 14) deadline. |
It is unacceptable to use this issue as a blackmail tool ... to score a particular gain. |
Lebanon is the true land of consensus par excellence, |
Our hand will always remain extended to everyone, |
The atmosphere is good. But discussions on some points are difficult. |
The issue of the presidency should be done with. It must be rescued from its current state. |
The statistics clearly show who the perpetrators were, since more than one third of the rioters that were arrested were Syrians and another third were Palestinians, mostly from the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. |
This is a shiny epoch in our history.. an era of re-foundation, |
War only leads to destruction. People have a hundred other ways to advance their causes and achieve results. The worst possible way is war. |
We have our ways, and we know how to win the seat if there is an electoral battle over it. |
We shall endeavor to activate and deepen our partnership with our allies of the Progressive Socialist Party and Tayyar Al Mustaqbal. Our hand will remain always stretched out to all, |
