Lebanon is a significant and forceful presence in the Arab world and a beacon capable of leading its fellow Arab nations in the direction of religious tolerance, democracy and greater economic and social freedoms.
Lebanon hosts surprisingly durable and resilient institutions, individual and group initiatives, deep patriotism, accumulated historical experiences, a mixture of local grounding and cosmopolitan orientation, and the free flow of ideas-all expressing a living multicultural spectrum.
Lebanon's historical status as a sanctuary for persecuted minorities is reflected in her eighteen officially recognized religious denominations-nearly all of which connect to significant populations outside Lebanon's borders.
Speaker Nabih Berri is reported to be tending to refuse the extension, wondering its timing, denying his prior knowledge on the step, considering it premature or early, and arguing the argument on the issue before the draft bill is received by parliament.
The speaker thinks the solution is through laying a parliamentary election law for the year 200, stipulating shortening the coming parliament term 8 months or less, so that the elections will be automatically held in spring not summer.
Speaker Berri said the GLC new leadership will give the government a reasonable phase of time to respond to these demands otherwise it will be obliged to struggle with all the possible means in framework of the democratic system.
