The role of Christians in Arab spring is a non starter; specially when the forces behind the Arab spring are mainly made up of the Muslim Brotherhood, radical Sunni groups backed by the Saudi Wahabi ideology which calls for the Caliphate style Umma which far from a 'democratic and civil state'.
The role of the Christians is being played in Egypt where the Copts are been massacred, a lesson for the Christians in the Middle East.
Therefore for the survival of the Christians Lebanese, they must unite under their own banner, headed by Patriarch Rahi, away from the likes of Hariri and Nasrallah clans..
Good Luck!
