French Foreign Minister Koushner’s reaction when Aoun told him that he doesn’t want to be President and he is only running as a sacrifice because the people want him and because he is the only one that can bring a solution for the current crisis

I found this video while googling the other day, this song is one of my favorites, such a sad and powerful song.

Is this what 70% of Christians want ??
Is this what any Christian wants ??

I dont think so.

Ya 3ayb el shoum bass ..

Before Aounists jump and post this video, i thought i post it and clarify to all readers why there is no contradiction.

However, i should point out that this was broadcasted on Manar TV yesterday, and uploaded and spread today by Orangists, which is truly saddening, since it shows how destructive Aoun has become to our community ..

Who would have imagined Aounists being hooked to Manar TV ?? eh walla te3teer .

Back to our topic,

31/08/1988 ( per the video).

Hakim is arguing how it is our right to boycott the session if we want to make a stand and block someone from getting to presidency, HOWEVER he never argues that the 50+1 is illegal constitutionally and does not say it is LEGALLY required to have the 2/3. Added to that, he does not claim that we have the right to block the elections as a whole and create chaos, but rather block the elections to disable a certain person from being elected.

Added to that, that was in 1988 when we were invaded by Syrians and it was our right as a resistance to boycott elections and stop the Pro-Syrian candidate from winning and it was coordinated with General Aoun.

09/11/2007 :
Hakim states that 50+1 is legal as per the constitution and states which article justifies it.

You can find the video below.

Every 10 years or so, Christians of Lebanon face a new crisis and the result is most of the time a compromise on their rights and powers. This ‘Arabization’ or even ‘Islamization’ process that has been undergoing since 1958 is its most critical point today.

Christians are losing their 50-50 status bit by bit. They already lost it in the past elections whereas almost half of their MPs were elected by Muslim votes and the worst is still to come. If no electoral law is voted on preserving the 50-50, Hezbollah might ask for a 1/3 1/3 1/3 representation from now on ( HA has already approached this manner with foreign diplomats and local ones), thereby destroying Lebanon’s identity and arabizing the country.

The only year Christians had muscles and were in a position to secure their future was back in 1982, where Sheikh Bashir Gemayel had a clear vision of our future, a clear program to implement and a local, regional & international support. Unfortunatelly, what was looking like a dream come true for us turned into a nightmare when Bash was assassinated.

Today Christian leaders ( Samir Geagea & Michel Aoun) are faced with a life-time challenge, either agreeing on electing a strong president or disagreeing and therefore compromising and electing a weak president. History will judge both men for their positions, specifically Michel Aoun and his stubborness.

You ask me is Michel Aoun a strong president ?

Michel Aoun obtained a large yet disputed majority in the past elections, however he signed an understanding with Hezbollah and therefore became dependant of HA’s policies, and will only harm Christians more if elected. Not only he violated the principles he defended for years while being in exile, but he lied to his voters and his people to gain their votes in 2005 ( Aoun’s party manifesto insisted HA should be disarmed and its weapons are illegal ( 2005 )).

As for Dr.Geagea, being in prison during the elections, his party only secured 5 seats, but he managed to reposition himself as a key element in the tri-alliance he signed with Jumblatt & Hariri.

As much as those alliances are unequilibred, both men can exploit their alliances in a positive manner and coordinate to come up with one president that will satisfy Christians’ demands, and not Hariri’s nor Hezbollah’s.

There is no room for compromise, and the only way out of this crisis ( in case both men dont agree) is for M14 to elect a strong Christian president from within their ranks, one that will abide by M14’s principles and force himself on Hezbollah and the Syrians.

I was expecting a president on the 23rd, and was very dissapointed M14 did not call for a session, however that might have been a smart move to let Lahoud end his term and avoid any stupid move from him, but now M14 must elect a president asap if Christian leaders dont reach an agreement.

Manar was hosting a special farewell to Lahoud show tonight.

Everyone was calling and dedicating a message to Lahoud, while Manar’s special Reporter Zainab was @ Baabda following every single move La77ous was doing.

Dr.Nabil N2oula Al Moukawen Al 2awwal ( moukawen bil kaf like klinex) was ‘grippe’ bil beit, yet was participating in this special episode.

I will share now with you few dedications to Lahoud from all over Lebanon.

Ali : Al salamou 3alaykom, Anii b7ebb hayyi el Sayyid 7asseen wel ra2eess Emile Lahoud li 7eme el Mukawame bi 3ahdo.

Hussein : Ani min el Do7yeh, wou Ani b7ebb 7ayye el ra2ees el batal Lahoud wou 2ello 2anno yaret fi mitlo rjel … wou b7ebb 7ayye el Sayyid 7assin.

Manal : Bsammeekoun bil kheir, Ani min el janawoub wou b7ebb 2elkoun 2anne ma bifham bil siyyesse bass ba3rif fi 3 rjel lezim n7ebboun hinne el Sayyid Michel Aoun, el 3imad Hassan Nasrallah wel rra2iss Lahoud.

Mhammad: El salamou 3alaykom, bass 7ebib wajjih ta7iyyye lal sayyid 7assin wou la 7eme el mukawame el Ra2iss Lahoud, yaret fi rjel mitlo ba3ed …

Khadija: Ana 7abbe 2oul lal Sanioura 2anno ma byiswa sermeyto lal sayyid 7assin wou khalli yirou7 3ala Israel achraflo .. wou b7ebb wajjih ta7iyye lal ra2ess el rejjel Imile Lahoud.

As you can see, tons of Lebanese have express their support differently to Imile Lahoud and Sayyid 7assin ( Fida sermeyto).

Meanwhile, 14 march decided to launch a campaign to show their true feelings towards La77ouss named :

نعلن إنطلاق الحملة الوطنية: “الله لا يردّك

VIDEO

Today we mark the end of an era, the era of La77ouss ..

I say despite all the troubles we are going through, despite everything that might happen in the next few days, i am overjoyed that we are done with this traitor, this useless piece of shit, this fucked up president, this scumbag, this Christian-killer etc etc etc ..

I will be celebrating tonight the end of la77ouss and i am sure the greatest majority of Lebanese ( those who believe in Lebanon that is) will be celebrating with me.

Cheers wou Allah yighamme2lak wou la yireddak ma7al ma inta rayi7 ..

I never felt that good since Hafez el Assad died ..

You can keep feeding him bananas till 12 though.
Enjoy yourselves.

How did we get in this mess ?? How are we gonna get outselves out of it ?

I am not surprised to say the least and i saw that coming months ago, it doesnt take a genius to realize Syria doesnt want a president and as long as its puppets here in Lebanon are strong, they will block in any way possible presidential elections.

They killed MPs to lower our numbers ..
They burned tyres and blocked roads to cause inner fights ..
THey set up tents in Down Town after failed attempts to assault the serail …
They initiated a war to destroy our economy …

We have reached a stage where i believe we should ask ourselves if we want to still live with Lebanese who support Syrians, who support any party against their own people.

Lebanon is our Cause wou bass ..
If Lebanon is not small enough for them, i say let us rediscuss this whole Lebanon issue and decide whether we divide the country or not.

Lebanon should have a new president tommorrow and if that is not the case, we are in serious trouble.

The solution is simple: ask the Opposition Mps to show up and if not vote 50+1 president.

If not, only Christians will bear the consequences unfortunatelly.

Part 1 - Part 2

One day before the presidential elections, Monsieur le General dawwit el lamba bi rasso el fade and came up with a plan that insults our intelligence and his if he has any.

Apparently he still thinks we are all “ghechem” and he is the savior that has come to enlighten us.

He is COMPROMISING by giving away the presidential seat to someone else ( as if he had any chance of taking it in the first place), but wants Hariri to pick a non-FM prime minister ( we all know Mikati & Hoss are the only options and both are Anti-Hariri).

Once again, Aoun is helping Syria indirectly and is applying her plan without realizing maybe ( a big MAYBE here).

I was reading that famous ‘historical’ plan and noticed two ‘minor’ issues missing, issues apparently that are not of that importance to our general anymore.

- Drawing the borders & Diplomatic relations with Syria.
- Respecting all UN resolutions.

His ‘major’ point was agreeing on the MOU, wlik chou hal ra2eess el 2awe li ra7 yikoun ma3 militia mitil HA bil balad ..

Who will guarantee HA wont start another war ? Who will guarantee HA will respect the MOU ?? Who are you to give us such guarantees ??

A general that lost in all wars, either political or military, is giving us guarantees for the future with HA still armed and wants to appoint our next president now ??

As his father Amin said… “Pierre 7ay Fina” is not a slogan, it is a feeling.
His memorial this year fell on Thanksgiving…and I don’t think this is a coincidence. We should give thanks with all our might, give thanks for knowing him, give thanks that we have the capacity to remember. Give thanks for being lucky despite everything.

Yes, we are lucky, because no matter how much we go through, no matter how many meddle in our affairs, no matter how desperate the situation becomes, we will always have people amongst us that are ready to stand up for what they believe in.
People like Pierre who lived a short but eventful life.
Pierre would not and did not give up. He lived his entire adult life with one aim, one goal…a Free, Independent Lebanon.
A country that would be able to stand on its own two feet. A country that would guarantee a decent life for its citizens. A country that would give its younger generation hope in the future, not just hope in a visa.
Pierre did not get to live his dream fully. He was killed on 21.11.06. He was shot… a cold, brutal death. Yet his death is a wake up call to all of us.
One Pierre died and was burried?
but how many more can live again in his footsteps?
One Pierre cannot hold his children anymore?
but how many of us should now cherish every moment we have with our families?
One Pierre cannot be with his wife anymore?
but how many us should hold on tightly to our loved ones in his memory?
Pierre would never fully die…because his memory lives on through each and every one of us.
Every tear we shed today is a symbol that we will always remember him. A symbol that even though we should naturally move on, yet we should never forget.

My words are simply a drop in the ocean of his achievements…and they are simply a small testimony to his life.

Pierre 7ay Fina..

Happy Thanksgiving to all our American readers.
