هولاند في رسالة خطية لسليمان: على اللبنانيين وضع مصلحة لبنان فوق كل اعتبار

Most Lebanese do... You know the ones that don't... It does not take a genius to figure out who they are... their leaders are hiding underground somewhere south of Downtown Beirut or in some bunker in the Rabieh zip code...

Sorry Froggy, can't do it as per my consultant's advise. They tell me that our priority is collecting body parts.

Let me try combine the posts of Patriot and bigjohn hopefully into a uniting statement. Most of our politicians have been trading Lebanon's interests for their wealth or power (some are hiding underground and others are not). This is how they accumulated their wealth and power while the majority of the population struggle to make ends meet. And the ones that are patriotic and honest either murdered or have so few followers that no one pays attention to them.
And bigjohn, allow me to add Syria and Iran to your last sentence and then I will be with you.

Hollande and Suleiman agreed that they have a remarkably similar domestic national security agenda. Islam must never become a vehicle to democratic power. Look (they say to each other) what the Polish Catholicism-based Solidarity movement did to the Soviet Union and Warsaw Pact. Lebanon's situation is more acute in that the Shiites, the majority of the population but disenfranchised under the so-called Taif Accord, have possibly received aid from foreign countries to maintain themselves and their Hezbullah entity. So it is only fair for the privileged elite (these has-been warlords, yes) to receive foreign aid as well, but only until they can eliminate the domestic threat: the common people. In Lebanon we have the perfection of secular democracy: many parties, many leaders, no people.

Hollande can't even control his girlfriend who is badmouthing his previous girlfriend all over twitter, now he wants to give lebanon moral advice? He should stick to having affairs and leave Suleiman to handle the situation in his own way, the Lebanese way!
