Al-Ra’i: One legitimacy and weapon essential for state
The article focused on the speech of Patriarch Bechara Boutrous Rahi regarding the necessity of Lebanese national unity and sovereignty. It emphasized that building a unified state requires a single legitimate authority and weapons solely in the hands of the state. It underlined that our love for Lebanon calls for working toward the public interest, respecting institutions and laws, combating corruption, and ensuring that no sect or party becomes a tool for undermining the nation. The speech highlighted the importance of weapons being exclusively controlled by the state, stressing that this aims to complete the building of institutions and unify the authority, not to foster internal conflict. It also called for strengthening the Lebanese army to ensure sovereignty and security, especially in the south, and rejected the idea of Lebanon remaining a platform for conflict or a waiting ground. The patriarch affirmed that sovereignty is a right for citizens to return to their land and feel secure. He proposed the concept of active neutrality, which protects Lebanon from external interference and guarantees its freedom of decision. The speech concluded that salvation begins with a change of heart that achieves national unity and coexistence among all factions.
