General Aoun who is now President and a Shia Imam has earned my utmost respect and captured my wildest imagination for vowing to Eradicate 'Malicious Germ of Corruption' in his family and political party.
He said the same during the Presidential campaign. Three years later... it is all worse by very, very, very far...and the guy keeps singing that same tune... Amazing!
Nicolas Tueni this president's own anti-corruption minister looked for corruption for two years yet he could not find any. The fact that Nicolas Tueni was being payed a minster's wage for two year for doing nothing is the epitome of the malicious germ of corruption.
Yes, as he demands that his son in law be a part of the new government demanded by the anti-corruption protests. Since when has Bassil - Bassil = Bassil?
