Maronite Patriarch Beshara al-Rahi on Tuesday called on the opposition March 14 camp to accept President Michel Suleiman’s call for national dialogue, stressing that "we cannot cripple the state and dialogue upon every crisis." "I repeat my condolences over the assassination of (Internal Security Forces Intelligence Bureau head) Maj. Gen. (Wissam) al-Hasan and all the victims," said al-Rahi at the Beirut Rafik Hariri International Airport, upon his arrival from a visit to Rome.

 

"I tell our brothers in the March 14 camp that their wound is our wound, but things must be confronted in a calm manner," he added. [Link]
