"And I have found both freedom and safety in my madness, the freedom of loneliness and the safety from being understood, for those who understand us enslave something in us. But let me not be too proud of my safety. Even a Thief in a jail is safe from another thief. "

Report: Mustaqbal Lines 'Will Be Open' for Dialogue with Aoun- Naharnet

The Mustaqbal Movement is not leaning towards boycotting any political side, declared their sources in response to Hizbullah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah's call on the movement to launch dialogue with Change and Reform bloc leader MP Michel Aoun, reported An Nahar daily on Saturday.
The sources added: “Our lines are open and we have never boycotted anyone.”
“We have been holding talks with Hizbullah, which is our fiercest opponent,” they continued.
“Dialogue with Aoun will be open, but we are not in the process of lifting the receiver and informing him that we are going to pay him a visit,” remarked the sources.
In addition, they noted how “Aoun speaks of partnership and later orders people to appoint an individual otherwise he will reject any other proposal.”
Aoun wants his son-in-law Commando Regiment chief Brig. Gen. Chamel Roukoz to be appointed army chief.
Roukoz's tenure ends in October 2015 while the term of army commander Gen. Jean Qahwaji expires at the end of September.
