بري يؤيد جنبلاط بـ"إعادة الاعتبار للبعد الوطني في ملف الرئاسة"

Read this story in English W460

أعرب رئيس مجلس النواب نبيه بري عن تأييده لموقف رئيس "الحزب التقدمي الاشتراكي" النائب وليد جنبلاط بـ"اعادة الاعتبار للبعد الوطني في الاستحقاق الرئاسي بدل حصره عند المسيحيين فقط".

ونقلت صحيفة "النهار"، الاثنين، عن زوار بري انه أثنى على كلام جنبلاط مؤكداً انه يوافقه عليه تماماً لانه لا يعني استبعاد المسيحيين وانما مشاركة كل مكونات الوطن.

يُذكر ان جنبلاط وفي موقفه الاسبوعي الى صحيفة "الانباء"، الذي نشر الاحد، دعا الى "اعادة الاعتبار للبعد الوطني في الاستحقاق الرئاسي بدل حصره عند المسيحيين فقط"، محذرا من ان حالة الشغور ستؤدي الى "قضم الصلاحيات الرئاسية".

وقد كرر موقفه، في تصريح الى "النهار"، الاثنين، حيث لفت الى ان "انتخاب الرئيس ليس مسؤولية مسيحية فقط بل مسؤولية كل مكونات البلد ولا يجوز الاستمرار في اهمال هذا الاستحقاق كل هذا الوقت".

من جهة أخرى، اعتبر بري امام زواره، وفق ما نقله هؤلاء الى صحيفة "النهار"، الجلسة السادسة لحوار "حزب الله-المستقبل"، قد تعقد بعد الذكرى العاشرة لـ14 شباط التي تحييها قوى 14 آذار في البيال.

ومن شأن هذا الحوار الذي انطلقت اولى جلساته في عين التينة في 23 كانون الاول، ان يخفف الاحتقان المذهبي في الشارع، وحلحلة بعض الملفات السياسية، أبرزها، انهاء الشغور الرئاسي الذي يعيشه لبنان منذ ايار الفائت، لرفض الرئيس السابق ميشال سليمان تمديد ولايته وفشل النواب في التوافق على اسم رئيس.

The country's top Christian post is reserved for Christian Maronites in accordance with the National Pact of 1943.

- You don't say!

What's up with Berri and Jumbo agreeing on everything lately? They're like best buds. The last time they met, they must've been reminiscing about the civil war, looking at pictures of them posing with guns and shooting them.

They have been as such from early on in their evil careers.

Leave it to the Christian leaders to louse up things so the country remains with out a president

Thumb nickjames 08:35 ,2015 شباط 09

I'm not sure what you're getting at. I never said anything about leaving it to Christians. And how can we leave it to the Christians when a Christian leader boycotts Parliament? The people need to march in Downtown, overthrow the government, arrest the leaders, outlaw all the current political parties, write a new constitution, remove the confessional system; and let's join the 21st century. It's funny how we're now in 2015 yet the people leading this country were around in the 1970s.

the new generation is worse: they are the flamethrowers, the mowatens, and the mystics, etc.

@nickjames
I agree with your above comment. All I was trying to say is that our Christian leaders are so divided and what makes it worst is that they are corrupt warlords. I think all our leaders are corrupt, and should be arrested and tried for corruption, cronyism. It is time to put new blood in office and put the intelligent and educated to redress the country

I see what you meant now. I thought you were directing the sarcasm at me, I misunderstood you. But yeah the only way Lebanon can get anywhere is if we outlaw Hezbollah and the only way to do that is make an international anti-Hezbollah coalition and drop airstrikes on them

Thumb Machia 09:56 ,2015 شباط 09

The problem with Hezbollah is that it is armed and serving the Islamic Republic of Iran's interests. They are not only allied to Iran, as is the case with Al Mustaqbal and Saudi Arabia, but they kill on its behalf.
Hezbollah today is more powerful than the Lebanese police and army combined. Furthermore, Hezbollah has as many Lebanese allies and supporters as March 14.
We cannot use force to disarm them. This will result in a new civil war.
The disarmement of Hezbollah is closely linked to regional politics. Meanwhile, we should aim to do the best we can to ensure peace, stability and economic development in our country.

Thumb Machia 10:15 ,2015 شباط 09

Moreover, we cannot engage in a serious dialogue about constituitonal reforms with a militia that has not intentions of giving up its weapons simply because Hezbollah has proven that it will use its weapons against other Lebanese in order to get their way.
As for the presidency, it has been taken hostage by Michel Aoun, the way Berri took hostage the parliament and the way Hariri took hostage the prime minister's post.
If Aoun was a stable person, it could somehow make sense to give him the presidency, given the sectarian hold on key posts.
And Aoun represents the majority of christian votes.
Yes the Lebanese chrisitian tribe voted for him more than they voted for Geagea or Gemayel. That is the logic and unfortunately the Lebanese voters have proven again and again that they are motivated by fear, hate, sectarianism, racism and money (of course).

"It's funny how we're now in 2015 yet the people leading this country were around in the 1970s."

it may be funny the way you put it, but it's far less funny when you remember to mention that these same leaders have sent countless families to kill each others in their names.

Oh I'm sorry to include the Lebanese Aouniyeh Forces in the 1980s... Did you really just try to exclude the Généwal from the list of corrupt warlords looooool "but nickjames give me one proof Aoun was corrupt"; remember this convo we had??

And did you ever read this article about Aoun being a traitor?http://www.thewatchersnetwork.com/cobra/index27.html

All this has one obvious conclusion : the destruction of the top institution by the Caporal and Ebola...REJOICE followers of traitors and destructors of the Christians....you do not see the dangers...

Missing humble 11:56 ,2015 شباط 09

Ebola wants to become "the state in place of the state" and they are using a traitor to reach their goal.

Brainwashed followers are equally responsible.

Shias are the majority but their rights are been usurped by the Christians who are less that 20% but have half of parliament the presidency, the head of the army and the central bank.
