"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. "

Salam Postpones Cabinet Session to Prevent its Possible Collapse- Naharnet

Prime Minister Tammam Salam postponed a cabinet session that was set to take place on Tuesday to pave way for more consultations and to avoid a further confrontation on its controversial decision-making mechanism.
A statement issued by the premiership said Salam set Thursday as a new date for the cabinet to convene.
Speaker Nabih Berri and Progressive Socialist Party chief MP Walid Jumblat had urged him to postpone the session. They wanted the consultations carried out by the different parties to pave way for agreements to facilitate the work of the government.
Sources close to Salam told al-Mustaqbal newspaper that his resignation is still an option.
The prime minister prefers to have a caretaker government rather than keeping a cabinet that does not function, they said.
