Aoun: Extending Army Chief Term a Political Deal, We'll Boycott Monday Session over Agenda

Well, at least he's adhering stringently and consistently to well-found principles.

If hizballah is well armed and the army is not, how about hizballah gives up its arms TO THE ARMY.

Wouldn't that solve your conundrum ya general?

Yes but the way I see, I think Israel would just wipe Lebanon off the map in the next encounter with Hizbullah. It has vowed that it will not repeat the mistakes of the past, so I think the next war will be quick and swift.

Deterrence is a good measure, but I think the best deterrence is a unified, adequate army, not sidelined by any petty politics, with as little (inevitable) corruption as possible.

He's a deserter, his in law is a thief and we're yet to find out what the Camel son in law is worth. Probably peanuts.

I think I see one of his puppet strings in this picture. “Why can't we elect an army commander out of 1,500 officers?” ... there is only one officer that Aoun has in mind for commander.

More whining and blabbering from the demented ex-general.

" How can we disarm the resistance while the army is not well-equipped".
Gen. Aoun, how dare you even mentioning the concept of eventually disarming HA? Raad All Mighty said just yesterday that disarming HA is non-negotiable! Careful now...

what Israeli aggressions? Before the OLP was allowed to set up bases in south lebanon there were no agression from the Israeli. Since Israel withdraw from lebanon it has never started any attack in Lebanon. In 2006 Israel needed to fight in Lebanon as Hizbullah was threatening Israel with its weapons and installation next to the border.

We are fed up with this demagogic discourse that the resistance is here to protect up from Israeli aggression. Why does Israel not agress Jordan, Syria, the West Bank and Egypt? Only when Israel is aggressed does it reply back.

We need no defense strategy. We need only to make sure that we have well drawn borders and protected by the army. Only then we can make sure that no agression is coming out from our country leaving no good reasons neither for Israel nor for Syria to aggress our country.

I suppose one can say they need the proper training first.

I appreciate your comment LebPatriot. You are one of the few people here who is looking at the facts on the ground before giving your opinion. How can any rational, patriotic person be so blinded by their internal conflict to the point of ignoring the thousands of violations that Israel has incurred in Lebanon on the past few years? If all sectors unify to the common external enemies, there will not be another 2006.

Bell wa Sebastaoun

The following is a work of fiction , any resemblance to political figures or geriatric lunatic generals is strictly coincidental and was not intended to cause additional psychological damage.

Typically in our civilization, humans own dogs and domesticate them as pets. It is always understood that the human has control over his dog and can give him commands.

In rare circumstances , the dog becomes the owner of the human and roles are reversed.

This is the story of one such dog.

Bell is a very secretive dog. He is big, bushy and hairy. He sweats a lot and likes to hide from the world. In fact it is very hard to find bell at all. Nobody sees him in public. He comes out once in while to bark and bark and bark. People love this big hairy dog because he is like the Saint Bernard and he only wants to save his people.

u wana kill me pyjamaparty? i am already ROTFL!!!!

make sure you save your work, ur humor is great.

They are all lowering themselves even lower than low.

God bless you General !

Peace you sound like everything but peace!
And FYI: It has not been decades sweetheart it has been since 2005 after Hariri death, then after Mr. Saad became prime minister he specifically said HA arms are legit and said their arms are a red line. Please review his speeches. Then after being removed from office while in Washington, he started singing the original song of disarming HA upon fleeing to his country Saudi. So do you all wake up in the morning wait to here what your master's say for that day, in order to know where you stand. I never understood how someone who was against the HA arms, changed his mind and was for HA arms, then changed his mind AGAIN. To top it off ALL his followers obeyed with the same views. So I take it today you are against the HA arms, but there is hope for tomorrow! Lebanese politics is sooo confusing.

before you start vomiting out the propaganda and diatribe you have been fed by your masters, name one time israel has attacked lebanon in an act of agression NOT self defense?

@ Suzanne, HAHAHA yes it is a fact israel has the capability to wipe lebanon off the map, and before you start beating that well endowed chest of yours take a look at our WWII relics of a tank brigade and where are our f18's or anything that resembles tecnolgical warfare? Israel will not agress against lebanon same as it hasn't agressed against jordan, egypt, or any other arab nation instead will counter attack agression from the likes of our beloved terror cell hezb who openly attack israel yet amazingly no one seems to notice. so to even speak of hezb as a deterence is ignorance personified. They are the sole reason that lebanon post war is so unstable..
