It is beyond belief that Bassil is not in prison considering:
1. Evil political prostitute that sold our freedom & democracy to HizbIran
2. Shadow president of the worst president in human history bankrupting a nation
3. Perfected corruption and nepotism with thousands of appointees and cronies
4. Caused $50 billion deficit leaving nation with no power, polluted, no plants
5. Spent fortunes on leaky dams and mafia projects to benefit cronies
6. Zero political skills, Useful idiot inflated by Hizb to weaken Christians.
