lebanon contain different groups , ideologies and cultures. HA and FPM were able to ally and find mutual ground to start up, for the first time, something real, something healthy, Something that can lead to building up a real country.
HA and FPM are not supposed to become one, it is healthy to have differences and to accept these differences. For the last 4 years both were under heavy attacks from the other group which obliged them to close the eyes on certain differences or mistakes from both sides. May be tayyar should have stood firmer against some issues. May be HA should have taken some basic concerns of the normal people more seriously. these are things to revise for the future.
Even though these differences do exist, the past experience taught us to respect each other and to believe that we can build a country together.
However, we are in a new phase now, we should decide on the next step: Should we try to open up to the other or not? the opening up started after doha agreement; when they understood that they cannot win or eliminate us. Conflicts increased and got bad before the election but we have to go back on track now. What options do we have? We dont have the parliament majority. We have to try to change from inside. This is the only available option at the moment.
We can differentiate in the way to do it, but I don’t believe either party will stab the other in the back. HA should start giving his people results in the inside. Resistance is a way to liberate and defend , it is not the target by itself. A healthy country is the target. This cannot be achieved without our partners in the country. The Partners we do trust and we know we can make a different together are the FPM people. You will see in the forming of the new government that we don’t stab in the back.
We share the same dream... it is called lebanon
