"رمي الطابات" وسيلة احتجاجية جديدة للحراك المدني وخلوة بشأن "التعيينات" بعد جلسة الحوار

To Whom It May Concern
I, the_roar, a well respected, heavily voted, liked, and admired shia poster with 56 accounts (3rd generation Australian) on naharnet hereby declare that until further notice I suspend my membership in this forum similar to what MP Emile Rahmeh ( who got the highest votes in the last elections ) did when he suspended his membership in the Lebanese Parliament in SOLIDARITY with the unlawful, unjustified, and oppressive decision by the administration of this forum to ban my fellow shia poster Flamethrower.
Let it be know to all that such practices by management contradict with the basic fundamentals of the Iranian constitution and free speech in North Korea.
I remain,
Signed

Rivals ? Of course rivals...."as long as you don't elect ME, you are my rivals" said the destroyer...

Our great democracies still tend to think that a stupid man is more likely to be honest than a clever man, and our politicians take advantage of this prejudice by pretending to be even more stupid than nature made them

Whenever the leaders have to put up barricades to protect themselves from the people that they are supposed to represent, there is a breakdown in representative government and a loss of legitimacy of the so-called leaders. Who do they lead? What is the source of their power? In a democratic society the source of a leader's power should be popular support for the leader and his policy agenda.
In Lebanon, a leader's power is derived from his bankroll derived from begging money from foreign governments and executing political mortgages to foreign governments in return. The people are mesmerized by the bankroll and ignore how it was obtained and at what price.

With new elections, in the present environment with garbage all about, they will all be tossed out of office, that's why they extend their supposed mandate from 2009, a date getting more and more into the distant past.

Lebanon's politicians will continue to perpetuate their enmity in public, only in public, but privately they have agreed to continue deceiving the people, if they are not removed from power now, they will be there for the next 10 years, and the same dance will only continue and with the very same tune. But then besides the point, I am also very much against the protesters, any protesters throwing anything on our security forces, no matter what the grievances are, there is simply no excuse to show any form of violence, be it security forces or other, either we win this war peacefully or we have already showed signs of losing it, damn it, stop throwing things on the police !!!

For the wise voice against violence in demonstrations,
THANK YOU PHOENIX1,
And mostly THANKS TO MICHELLE TUEINI for her latest article in annahar.
With the chaos the biggest loser will be the majority of good will non violent population,
The winners will be these violent thugs serving their masters.
The voice of the truth will be better heard in peaceful demonstrations.
