Report: Bassil, Jumblat discussed nominating Pierre Daher for president
The latest meeting between Free Patriotic Movement chief Jebran Bassil and Progressive Socialist Party leader Walid Jumblat was “different than all the previous meetings and was not negative at all, contrary to all leaks,” ad-Diyar newspaper reported on Thursday.
The meeting witnessed “a common approach toward the presidential file” based on the two men’s calls for “agreeing on a unifying figure that can talk to all political parties and that would be acceptable to everyone,” the daily added.
“Jumblat and Bassil might have found these characteristic in LBCI TV chairman Pierre Daher, agreeing to back his presidential nomination armed with the support of (Maronite) Patriarch (Beshara) al-Rahi for this choice,” ad-Diyar said.
It also noted that MP Wael Abu Faour of the PSP put Speaker Nabih Berri in the picture of this atmosphere, which was “also relayed to Haret Hreik.”

Pierre Daher may be the worst Useful Idiot. His only claim to fame is he stole LBC from LF with complicity of another Useful Idiot the evil Ghada Aoun at a time a TV station was crucial to safeguard Lebanon’s freedom and democracy. LF remains the best hope and most consistent supporter of Cedar Revolution Principles. Their ministers were by far the best and did not participate in Vichy governments that waste $22 billion since 2019 for zero results except enriching Hizb via illegal crossings. The greatest economic robbery in history. What LF lacks is charismatic leaders needed to explain occupation and corruption to ordinary people and direct link to exodus of western firms, political risk that dried investments and sky-high interest rates that bankrupted us. LBC could have been the medium and it would never let OTV of the traitors brainwash Christians and degrade them to level of Basij. Daher stealing LBC was a primary factor in our ticket to hell.
