Geagea said Berri "has always been courteous," but wondered whether the house speaker was the one who has the last word among his allies in the March 8 forces. ... the opposition to the Mar. 14th movement, consisting of Hizbullah and its allies, so-called in commemoration of their Mar. 8th, 2006 demonstration of strength in Beirut ... He noted that Free Patriotic Movement Despite its name a Christian party allied with Hizbullah, neither free nor particularly patriotic... leader MP Michel Aoun ...a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hizbullah... is the one who usually expresses the point of view of the March 8 forces. Aoun "was clear yesterday when he said that any party willing to be part of the government must adopt March 8's principles and beliefs." As to Prime Minister-designate Najib Miqati's ongoing efforts to form a new cabinet, Geagea accused the rival camp of "complicating the mission of the PM-designate," describing the Hizbullah-led coalition as "totalitarian." The LF leader stressed that "the March 14 Those are the good guys, insofar as Leb has good guys... forces have a unified opinion and share the same stance on all national issues."

"Our stance as March 14 forces, after several meetings, is that we either unanimously participate or none of us does." "There are constants which we cannot renounce, topped by (our stance) on the Special Tribunal for Leb and illegal weapons," he added. |
