All Their Church Buildings Will Be Burned,
And their flesh consumed by Islamic Hordes,
Once the Islam antichrist finishes using Them!
They are part of the riding woman in Revelation,
Who the Beast will buck off and destroy in the End!

Revelation 17:16,17 – And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.
[17] For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.
Begin Excerpt from Lebanon Daily Star
October 30, 2008
BEIRUT: As Lebanon’s president and prime minister headed Wednesday to Rome and Cairo respectively, the country’s leading politicians remained focused on Christian reconciliation efforts and the upcoming parliamentary elections, which will draw the country’s political map for the next four years.
President Michel Sleiman left for Rome on Wednesday, accompanied by a delegation that included Foreign Minister Fawzi Salloukh, Defense Minister Elias Murr and ministers of state Khaled Qabbani and Youssef Taqla. Sleiman is expected to meet on Thursday with his Italian counterpart, Giorgio Napolitano, and Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi. On Friday, Sleiman is scheduled to meet with Pope Benedict XVI at the Vatican.
He is also to meet with Maronite Patriarch Nasrallah
Butros Sfeir.
Sources quoted by the Central News Agency said on Wednesday that Sleiman’s meeting with the patriarch would focus on launching a new initiative to achieve reconciliation among rival Christians.
The sources added that Sleiman would use the upcoming national dialogue session to try to promote reconciliation efforts among all factions.
As Sleiman began his visit to Rome, Egyptian and Lebanese officials began official talks on Wednesday in Cairo.
The visiting Lebanese delegation is headed by Prime Minister Fouad Siniora and includes Education Minister Bahia Hariri, Economy and Trade Minister Mohammad Safadi, Energy and Water Resources Minister Alain Tabourian, Culture Minister Tammam Salam, Tourism Minister Elie Marouni and Minister of State Ibrahim Chamseddine. Three educational agreements were signed during the first meeting on Wednesday and additional agreements are expected to be signed on Thursday.
Siniora also met with a delegation of Lebanese and Egyptian businessmen.
Separately, Free Patriotic Movement leader MP Michel Aoun announced on Wednesday that he would run in the 2009 elections
in Kesrouan-Jbeil and not in Baabda in order to put an end to criticism that he would win the latter district thanks to the Shiite vote.
In an interview with Kuwait’s Al-Anbaa newspaper, Aoun acknowledged that “running in Kesrouan is a big challenge to me.” However, he added that “All prospects are possible in the elections.”
Aoun said that his popularity among Christians had not decreased to less than 51 percent, according to opinion polls.
He added that he would be able secure 70 percent of the Christian vote based on his “future alliances.”
Concerning efforts to achieve inter-Christian reconciliation, Aoun said: “The doors of reconciliation have not been closed, because they were not open in the first place.”
Aoun added that apologies are useless when the people to whom they are addressed are not identified by name. Aoun was referring to remarks made by Lebanese Forces (LF) leader Samir Geagea, who has apologized for any “mistakes” that the LF may have committed during the Civil War. The LF boss has stopped short of apologizing directly to Marada Movement leader and former Interior Minister Suleiman Franjieh, whose father, mother and sister were killed by Geagea’s militia in a 1978 raid on the family’s home in Ehden.
Geagea claims that he was shot before he arrived at the scene of the killings.
Aoun added that the best means for reconciliation was through the judiciary.
Meanwhile, Franjieh said the public should not dwell extensively upon reconciliation efforts, “because they will happen at the right time when conditions mature.”
Franjieh met on Wednesday with the Maronite League president, Joseph Tarabay, who has been mediating between the Marada and the Lebanese Forces in a bid to reach a reconciliation agreement between the two long-time rivals.
“The reconciliation issue should be discussed calmly, because if discussions around it are hurried, its damage will be greater than its benefits,” Franjieh said after the meeting. He added that he and Tarabay agreed on the need to ease tensions in the media and avoid political bickering through media outlets
“The reconciliation is not a ball that we throw in someone else’s court; it is a fundamental issue, as innocent blood was shed during a period of the history and the Christians were divided,” Franjieh added.
However, the Marada leader added that his party was willing to continue talks with the Maronite League and said he hoped that the media would deal objectively with the matter.
Asked about the conditions that his party has put forward to agree on reconciliation with the LF, Franjieh said: “We have said it before and the League knows that our conditions are not very difficult to meet.”
He added: “This issue should be permanently closed as it will not remain a trade product used by some parties in the media.”
Tarabay, for his part, said the Maronite League was willing to continue its efforts until the reconciliation is achieved.
Franjieh also met on Wednesday with the UN secretary general’ s repre
sentative in Lebanon, Michael Williams.

In a statement issued on Wednesday, the Loyalty to the Resistance parliamentary bloc welcomed the talks between Nasrallah and Hariri over the weekend, saying the meeting had eased tensions in Lebanon and in the wider Arab and Islamic worlds.
The statement also stressed the bloc’s adherence to the outcome of the Nasrallah-Hariri meeting and urged “all the Lebanese to cooperate” to achieve national reconciliation.
Meanwhile, former President Amin Gemayel said he hoped all Lebanese parties would follow the example of Hariri and Nasrallah.
In comments following his meeting on Wednesday with Russian Ambassador Serguei Boukin, Gemayel said: “There is a determin
ation to push the reconciliation forward. The meeting between parliamentary majority leader MP Saad Hariri and Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah should widen the framework of reconciliations.”
“We support all efforts in this regard and we ask President Michel Sleiman and Patriarch Nasrallah Butros Sfeir to make further efforts to achieve inter-Christian reconciliation as soon as possible,” he added.
