Murr: I Can’t Withhold Confidence from a Govt. Berri is Part of

W300

MP Michel Murr on Tuesday announced that he will grant his vote of confidence in parliament to Prime Minister Najib Miqati’s newly-formed government.

Following talks with Speaker Nabih Berri in Ain al-Tineh, Murr said: “There are three reasons that make me want to grant my confidence: the first is that I always consult with Speaker Berri, and … I cannot withhold my confidence from a government Speaker Berri is partner in, given that I have a very solid relation with him.”

“The second reason is that everyone was demanding and shouting ‘we want a government and the people can’t take it anymore’, and in fact leaving the country without a government for four or five months amid these explosive situations in the region was an abnormal thing.

“Therefore, after a government was formed, we can’t say that we’re against it, and after what people had endured throughout five months we should not obstruct the government now,” Murr added.

He also noted that “this cabinet contains ministers whose competence we respect and appreciate, and we can’t take a stance against them before we see what this government will do.”

Jumblat now Murr , they are both playing the safe cards, as they both were vigorous syrian allies, now that Syria has formed this governement, they feel their lives is at stakes. they want to protect themselves, but the true error in all this is March 8th fans which rejoice let me tell you why you cant rejoince :

- If it wasnt for Syria, none of your leaders would have been sitting down together, but they cannot move their heads or else ...

- We can confirm that after seeing the 5 month one sided governement , was it so hard since u are one side?

- March 14th is based on the independance of Lebanon , and its 10452km2, it is the people,s will that made it, not those snakes that could have slided to move along with the wave, they can come and go, the fact is that all those people downtown square then ,muslims and christians, believe in Unity and independance of their country.

Thank you

Let's not be like the Palestinian throwing rocks at each other or like the Syrian killing each other. This is Lebanon the mother land of democracy and the Phoenician ancient land of the cedars.
This what is so unique about this country, whether your are the best traders or the best terrorists, you are unique and no one is like you.

Arab spring has also effected Lebanon. Eventhough the Arab spring has also turned against Assad of Syria, one thing is for sure:The Arab spring is against all American puppets (Bin Ali, Mubarek, Saleh, Saudi monarchy, M14, AND ALL PRO US slaves)
