Dear Robert,
The reason I addressed you in the first letter was because I really believe in you as the change we all need and as I previously stated I was disappointed that you voted for the prolongation of the parliament’s term or at least that’s what I thought.(I did a research to know who voted against the prolongation of the term and all I got was only FPM members did that,(blame the media and google).
I was very happy that you read my letter and replied to it a reply that I wanted so much to hear,that is you didn’t vote for the prolongation of the term *(check M Fadel’s reply at the end of this post).
I didn’t bother to address other MPs including some relatives among them cause I consider it a waste of time for I don’t see in them the future Lebanon I dream about,but with you it’s different for I see in you the hope me and many young persons see in my country.You represent what a good and respectable politician is.
I know well your effort and deeds for the development of Tripoli and Lebanon and I can’t forget the support of your wonderful wife Hala.You two are the good example of institutional work far from sectarianism and clientelism and we demand from you to keep on with the good work to get to the Country we dream about.
I was totally sure you wouldn’t vote for the prolongation of the term as I was mislead to think and I’m proud of that.
Hala and Robert you are the positive future of my beloved Tripoli,you are the last hope of the young people who till now are refusing to leave it to scavengers.We believe in you as the one representative of Tripoli we are proud of.
Keep the good work.
*The reply of Mp Fadel to my previous post:
“Dear Khaled,
Many thanks for your open letter and for your kind words about our action in Tripoli. Both Hala and me are committed to the development of this city far away from sectarism and clientelism.
I am glad you are bringing up the issue of extension the parliament’s term. I was one of the most vocal opponents to it and made a statement one week before this vote (add link to statement) that I would not vote for it and not even attend a session for that purpose.
And I actually did not attend this session nor voted for the extension.
I am glad that the civil society is following up on this issue. Protecting democracy is one of the main objectives to promote the Lebanon we want.
Best regards,
Robert Fadel”
