@Jaafar: Kate is an American and as such is not allowed to vote in the local Lebanese elections. Listen friend; I have been meaning to show my support for you but never had a chance. Being unemployed with a broken family and feeling like nobody cares about you are quite understandable feelings according to family counselors. There are many therapy groups who could really help you regain some of that self-esteem that you most definitely need at this critical stage of your life. Remember, I am always here to help and guide you through this lonely stage of your life. You can count on me dear friend....!

although Geagea has no chance to get the presidency at this stage, he is the most representative among Christians:
- Amine Gemayel does not have that much support on the ground
- frangieh , being the Syrian representative that he is will never be a president in Lebanon. maybe in Syria :)
- as for aoun, he knows that if elections are to held now, he would not get half the parliament seats he has currently. and that is a fact, based on several polls that have been carried on lately, including the periodic one run by the fpm :) the latest showed they would not get the third of their current seats.

Hanoun, the old guard is scared stiff of the new faces. People like Ziad Baroud and Demianos Kattar it's clear will never make it to the top post, for the simple fact that they are clean and straight. What makes the matter so truly sad is not only coming from the old guard that will do its utmost to bar them from entering the presidency, but more so those people whom it seems prefer to keep their old guard at all costs, even if it had to bring them down to destitution. We are Lebanese after all, we should get used to having 75% of our population braindead.

Hi Roar, good weekend I hope? Now that we are talking of a strong president, do you have any names in mind? Please if you do, kindly post them, coz this is no joke, we need a strong president, one who is decisive, capable of taking difficult decisions and especially one that cannot be bought whatsoever. We need one who is persistent and consistent, so that leaves us with no choice but strike out the old guard, from Geagea, Aoun, Gemayel and Frangieh.

I am LF and will remain LF to my last days, but truth be told, Samir Geagea is the wrong person for the presidency. Now I will not accommodate hypocrisy by those who still claim that he is a criminal because Geagea is exactly the same like those he faced during the war, all of them, unexceptionally are as criminal as him. But that's besides the point, a man who hails from our wartime era cannot enjoy impartiality, no matter how much he will try. I agree, we need a firm president, one that has courage to take stands, but also one that is not tainted by war or blood. Lebanon is a country of open wounds, thus, a new president needs to come with no wounds of his own, if he is to lead over all the nation. It saddens me profoundly to note that we Lebanese will never learn anything, in fact nothing whatsoever.

phoenix all who took part in the civil war have blood on their hands, yes, but not all committed war crimes. how many people did geagea assassinate, murder and execute summarily? how many people are there in those containers in the waters outside beirut port? how many women were raped and murdered under his eyes by his men?
sorry but his crimes are nowhere to be compared with others. Noboy can say Aoun had his rivals assassinated, or that he mass murdered civilians, or that the Lebanese army applied extortion and rape as common practice.
and as for the ultimate betrayal, please remember that geagea helped the syrian troops enter, because he was losing against Aoun. this man should have never gotten out of his cell.

Mowaten dear brother, in general what you said is OK, but then I hate to disagree with you again. It is my view, that all of the warlord have blood on their hands, it is also my view that they committed serious assassinations and crime, all of them, not just geagea but all of them, but for the sake of washing our laundry at home, I will not state names. Please, between family that is.

FD, with all dues respects, everyone in Lebanon, at one time or the other was made to work with the Syrians. Even us LF, during the days of Bachir Gemayel, we had to work with the Syrians to liberate Tall El Za3tar and other Palestinian camps. At the time we were too weak yet, but the focus should be on the Syrian instead of the Lebanese, he, the Syrian was the one who was capable of calling the shots, all the shots. So to put blame on one side alone is to show only one side of the coin, fact is, everyone in Lebanon worked with the Syrian, but it is the Syrian that never remained consistent. For trial, let today either Sayed Hassan or Aoun take one position against the interests of Syria, even today, and you will see how both will fly high.

This is clearly a blocking move by Geagea. Aoun's push to become the next President is stymied by Hezbollah's failure to support the bid. Hezbollah does not want a competing source of power and Aoun, with 24 Deputies in Parliament would be such competition. So Aoun is looking to KSA and its benefactor in Lebanon, Mustaqbel. Future saying that it will support Geagea freezes Aoun out, which is the objective.

Geagea is actually the more attractive candidate for Hezbollah. The LF has a smaller Parliamentary bloc and by elevating Geagea to the Presidency, it puts distance between the LF and M14. With no other major Christian party to its side, M14 gets marginalized and that is an objective of Hezbollah. But, alas, Geagea cannot become elected either. He will need Jumblatt and all of M14 to come with him and he is not a consensus candidate among the Christian electorate.
Geagea however, I do not believe, harbors ambitions to be President, but to be a President Maker. He can do more for having cleared the way for Ziyad Barouk than he could by becoming President himself.

Beiruti, bro, I am a big fan of yours, I love and I enjoy your every single post. Every time I read any of your posts, I come out of it a bit better educated, thanks a lot bro.

Phoenix1, I am a fan of your posts as well, including the picture you have selected. I met Bachir in Washington DC in August 1981 where his talk had the people standing on the tables in the room cheering for him. I met him and he was like my brother. Nice choice you made.

Hi Beiruti brother, Bachir was my boss and my teacher and to the end of my life he shall continue to be my role model. My only worry brother is Bani the gay from the Shouf, when he reads this post of mine, he will suffer a heart-attack or a stroke.

Ya Habibi, What a beautiful picture! Are their any doctors among you commentators who can prescribe some HEAVY-DUTY anti vomiting drugs. I may never be able to keep down another meal.
