  The visit to Prime Minister Fouad Siniora on the 15th of March 2007
 

Prime Minister Fouad Siniora met members of the Islamic Makassed Alumni Organization with its President, Engineer Mazen Charbaji.

President Charbaji initiated his speech by saying: We reported to Prime Minister Siniora the positive attitude of the Lebanese citizens resulting from the meetings between Speaker Nabih Berri and Head of Parliamentary Future Block Saad El Hariri and their effects on the people as regards to both economical and psychological aspects. We hoped that these endeavors will help Lebanon in crossing to safety board although we were astonished by some of the attitudes that call for reconsidering the Lebanese Constitution and the Taif accord.

He added: "There is no doubt, that constitutions are neither everlasting rules nor minor ones. We have to apply the terms mentioned in the Taif accord first to learn from our mistakes then to resolve some loose ends. We called upon the leaders to get rid of sectarianism and not allow the religious beliefs and familial constraints in politics in order to be a unified family and to restore to the youth and children the wonderful country that Rafic Hariri died for, with all nature colors. Let our motto be: Lebanon first and last and let us all walk in the same line to achieve this.

He concluded by saying: Prime Minister Siniora asserted his firm position and his determination to follow the principle of the seven points plan, adding that he would strive not to give up on any of his stands in order to build one unified and sovereign Lebanon.

  The visit to the Speaker Nabih Berri on the 8th of March 2007
 

President Berri met members of the executive committee in the Makassed Alumni Organization with its President, the Engineer Mazen Charbaji who said after the meeting:

"We visited President Berri who is one of the old Alumni of the Makassed Organization and we discussed with him the concerns of the capital Beirut and its educated youth, among other subjects, namely: Beirut's downtown and the sit-in that started as a result of a political conflict but soon reflected negatively upon the living and social status of the capital's citizens. We called upon him and all the leaders in the opposition to resort to wisdom and acknowledge the importance of Beirut Downtown.
We also hoped that they would put an end to this sit-in and to convert the opposing attitude into another approach that would fulfill their demands without neutralizing the downtown area which will only make the citizens suffer more than they already did as a result of the difficult economic situation.

He added: Everyone supported the Arab initiative - especially the enormous efforts that King Abdullah, Custodian of Two Holy Mosques, along with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia are making- in order to establish the Lebanese domestic entente.
President Berri gave confidence as to regional and international facts but he expressed his alarm as to the internal political crisis. He also expressed his fear that the Lebanese leaders might miss this golden opportunity.

We call upon all the leaders to set aside their personal interests, and to assume their responsibility towards the country and the Lebanese people and to work altogether as one team in order to save Lebanon and the Lebanese people and to best support them, he added.
