We are honestly more than lucky to have a competent person such as Antoine Kheir heading the juridical body in the country. From what i know and head, he is a clean, honest and competent person who never bowed to the Syrian hegemony or to any bribes.

The latest reforms done were exceptional and were meant to replace the juridical body on the right track by removing all the bad apples from this institution. But of course we needed Lahoud’s signature to go on with the new appointments and he didnt sign because his ‘men’ were removed from their spots.

Elias El Murr stupidly refutes the appointments the first day saying Maronites were not well represented which is totally untrue but then returned from his position 2 days later.

Patriarch Sfeir supported the new appointments as well as Hussein el Husseini as i was reading in Annahar today and the Ketle party 2 days ago also asked the president to sign the list of appointments ( knowing that Kheir is close to the Ketle).

This step is a crucial one in putting the country back on the right track since the justice is one of the most essential bodies of the country, if not the most essential.

As Sheikh Pierre used to emphasize and the army and juridical body MUST not be abused or weakened by anyone.
