Jumblat says he and Berri call for return to 1949 Armistice Agreement, with modifications
Druze leader Walid Jumblat stressed Tuesday "the necessity of finding appropriate means to solidify the ceasefire" with Israel.
After meeting with Speaker of Parliament Nabih Berri in Ain el-Tineh, Jumblat added: "We support negotiations through one of the available means, based on a clear agenda, which is withdrawal and the return of the land."
"For me and Speaker Berri, the most we can offer as Lebanon is a return to the (1949) Armistice Agreement with some modifications; a new formula is necessary," Jumblat added.
He also emphasized the need for "the continued presence of UNIFIL forces," considering the decision to withdraw them "a mistake."

back to the status quo....the old and crusty whose expiry date has long gone still try to take Lebanon back to the dark ages. Both of you should be in a nursing home; it's 2026 not 1975. Onwards and upwards Lebanon. Down with the iranian brainwashed stooges and those living in the past.

These 2 mafioso have been running Lebanon for ages.
They should be sidelined and have no input in a post war Lebanon. They belong to the dustbin of history. 2 relics of an old dysfunction sectarian society.

AOUN & SALAM, IF THEY CARE ABOUT LEBANON & PROTECTING OUR NATION should (1) put Berri in prison for blackmailing & enabling Lebanon occupation & destruction by Basij, (2) declare Hizb an Iranian brigade enemy of state that thoroughly destroyed Lebanon for Iran objectives, (3) replace Hizb ministers with Shia opposition who represent majority of Shia (Hizb support is similar to Assad 95% support that disappear once arms & threats removed), (4) request any of UNIFIL/Arab/Egypt/France to support Lebanese army in disarming & defeating Hizb Iranian Brigade, and (5) expel Iran Ambassador & sue Iran in international courts for its $120 billion frozen funds. All Hizb Leaders are traitors & should be imprisoned & their assets confiscated to compensate their million victims. Berri 2024 Isnad to Gaza alone has cost Lebanon $15 billion, or 2 year average salary of one million Lebanese. 2026 war even worse. DUO CANCER MUST BE ERADICATED FOR LEBANON TO SURVIVE!
Few leaders so old are able to see the present in terms other than the long-ago past when a poorly made mistake, that still secretly haunts them as regret, was the most they could offer. Lebanese deserve leadership that sees this day in light of the opportunities that can be created for Lebanon's future.
Let go of the losses from our youth; embrace the opportunities to serve the promise still possible for Lebanon's youth and the children they might yet raise.
