Is Aoun leading a cult?
Posted by MarkAoun’s alliance with Hizbullah is a testament to how strong his followers will support anything he does. To say that Aoun’s party vehemently opposed Hizbullah for over a decade would be an understatement. When Aoun found he needed the militia’s support for political maneuvering, his followers approved rank and file. Case in point - what would happen to President Bush’s followers if the administration decided to endorse a woman’s right to choose? Not to compare Hizbullah to abortions, but the switch is of similar magnitude.
In the case of President Bush, or any other world leader for that matter, such a major u-turn would lead the bulk of his supporters to move on to another Republican candidate. In the case of Aoun, who is the alternative for the FPM? Has the General created a one man party that he plans to live and die with?

Aoun is a lost man that needs abit of power and wants more people to stand with him !so 1 of the people he chosed was hezbolla!Hezbolla has Alliance with Iran and Syria!so we hope in the coming days Aoun would plan to go and live in SYRIA Or Iran !coz he is making us feel sick of him!

It is funny, you always fail to talk about the article especially if it was about holy Aoun, you directly turn to attacking LF with falso propaganda!
4. Appo | May 29th, 2006 at 11:40 am
100% lebanese, u shall refresh your memory please… we are the only party, till now we are paying martyrs against the syrians from 1975… you are funny and simply ignorant as most Aounists are. why? just because u don’t read the history or analyse the present. u just react on small action. we forgave but not forgot, who the Aoun’s Milicia attacks LF under one huge slogan, no for MILICIA Arms, and he saw only LF, as Milicia, just because he is acting on a syrian request to become the president… well please ask your General is he still with this slogan on the time of peace???????????? funny you are… your Idol is just a Syrian agent since 1984… stop laughing please, start analysing facts…

The Ilgha WAR ! ! ! ! ! ! !
I have a question that I’ve been asked many times and i diden’t know how t0 reply so i am hoping you can answer it for me . in the ilgha war which side had more weapons and which side had the best quality weapons ????????????????
Answer : During the ilgha war,the army had 25.000 soldiers .450 tanks . 600 M-113. more than 500 canons of all calibers , and choppers. the LF on the other hand had 2.500 operational soldiers, 100 tanks.200M-113 and around 150 cannons.
S0 the army was very well equipped, and had more material and more ammo and more soldiers . And i addition to all this, they were prepared; we were totally taken by SUPRISE ! ! ! !
WHAT MADE THE DIFFERENCE IS THAT WE HAD BETTER SOLDIERS,AND WE WERE INSPIRED.
We are Warrior-poets, and we fight for a CAUSE , for our homeland,for our families.
The army soldier fights for his salary at the end of the month. Militar experts from all around the world witnessed the battles we won against army , and they were surprised with that we did against them. They only had one comment; they said that our levels of courage, Satamina, and inspiration were at the top .
