One of these days we, the Lebanese, need to realize that we must apologize to one another for all the mistakes and “sins” we committed against one another as various groups and sects in the country. This is the one thing no one has really ever done. Today, we continue to live out our fears [...]

Aoun represents Christian seperation

I am starting to realize how much Aoun represents the bulk of the Christians in Lebanon. The reason: because he voices an often hidden but always present streak in Christians to see themselves asĀ separateĀ from the rest of the nation. Aoun today is the true successor of the leadership that went against the Hariri governments in [...]

Not only does this former high-ranking investigator give his opinion on the Hariri investigation, but also expresses admiration for Nasrallah and Hezbollah, expresses concern for [...]

Many Aounists today insist that their wise leader has chosen to side with Hezballah against March 14 because the latter are dominated by the Sunnis who are itching to turn Lebanon into a mini Saudi Arabia. They point to the memorandum of understanding (MOU) that they signed with the Hezballah as an example of a [...]

I was and still am deeply disturbed by what happened on February 5 in Achrafieh. The authorities should be firm in dealing with what happened and refrain from the lofty talk. The problem was that a rioting mob which obviously took part in premeditated acts of violence was not adequately faced with law enforcement. Period! [...]
