Lieberman is capable of reaching compromises with the Haredim. They have worked with them (Netanyahu's coalition) for many years, lying to them stubbornly. Unfortunately, Netanyahu lies as he breathes. They have understood that. How long can people continue to be deceived?

Lebanon is not made upright by the domination of one sect over another, but by the partnership of all and fairness to all.
النائب أشرف ريفيعضو مجلس النواب اللبناني2 days ago · MTV Lebanon
Today, we Sunnis suffer from a similar, and perhaps more severe, injustice amid the previous and continuing Iranian hegemony and its repercussions, after most of the positions that were our share in the military, security, judicial and administrative sectors and others were seized.
النائب أشرف ريفيعضو مجلس النواب اللبناني2 days ago · MTV Lebanon
During my leadership of the Internal Security Forces between 2005 and 2013, I had the honor of constructive cooperation with His Beatitude Patriarch Mar Nasrallah Boutros Sfeir, and with the 'Laboura' Association and its founder and president Father Tony Khadra, and through this cooperation we were able to raise the proportion of Christian participation in the Internal Security Forces from 27% to 40.2%.

This is not the time for internal disputes or disagreements, especially those that hold the resistance responsible for the crises Lebanon is experiencing.

Maintaining national unity and preserving internal stability constitute a national priority.

The state is required to assume full responsibilities and duties toward the south and its people, work to secure the return of residents to their villages and towns, and oblige the Israeli enemy to stop its attacks and withdraw completely from Lebanese territory.
هاني قبيسيعضو كتلة التنمية والتحرير2 days ago · MTV Lebanon
Negotiations, restricting weapons, the return of residents to their villages, monetary stability and the restoration of security are all files that will not find their way to implementation unless the government decides to adopt decisiveness and firmness. If it is incapable of that, then a mini government must be formed whose mission is emancipation and liberation, made up of ministers who excel at the honor of confrontation and the art of governance, where there is no fear, hesitation or yawning. Either a state decides and implements, or we remain stalled in place, and that in itself is the killing of the republic.

Iran asked the party to 'keep its head down' and not to move the internal arena at the present time. The party realizes the extent of resentment against it within its displaced environment, and it does not have the ability to secure financial alternatives for it or provide the necessary protection.

The party fears the repercussions of using explosives in assassination operations inside Lebanon, because of the widespread opposition to its performance and alliances, which is increasing day by day.

The political decision is clear about not dragging the army into a military confrontation with Hezbollah, and this is what became evident in the pilot areas, which led to their failure.

If he meets Hezbollah, it will be a strong political message confirming that the Turks played a patron role for the party at a certain stage, and that the party is not besieged.

The goal is to have a trusted party on the ground capable of verifying the parties’ compliance (with the provisions of the framework agreement) in the pilot areas. This does not necessarily require a military mission like the one (performed by) (UNIFIL)... it could be civilian

Lebanon's political, economic, and security problems all share one factor: the continued existence of an Iran-backed terrorist militia that exploits Lebanese territory to attack Israel, threatens and kills Lebanese public figures, and prevents the Lebanese Army from monopolizing the use of force.
