GL,
In the name of "healing and reconciliation" I thought It would be a great
thing to start the reconciliation process with Matarr since he was the first
expelled member of this forum. We can start from here   in order  to measure
tolarance.

Certainly, there is a degree of willingness in Matarr to come back to the
GL, we must therefore take the chance to welcome him back as one of our
brothers who come back to join the family.

In the name of "healing and reconciliation" may God enhance us with the true
sprit of togetherness.

Peace!
Yahya
