Beirut International Airport to be renamed Rafik Hariri International Airport?

[kappa273]

it is a very good idea...

he is the one who renovated the airport and it should be named after him...

we also need to name a place after his name with a big statue to remind future generations of his glory...


R there any new places planned by solidere and not yet completed?

i don't think we should rename the street where he was killed (it is too sad)... but maybe the street which passes next to his tomb...

But I definately think the airport should be renamed after him.

Kleyate airport was named after Rene Mouawad when he was assassinated.

Other examples of airports named after someone assassinated in the world include New York John F. Kennedy Int'l, Liverpool John Lennon Airport, and Dehli Indira Gandhi Int'l.

so why do we have to do like eeryone else? yaane iza someone important jumped off the window we should all follow?? hehe

There's no need to name the international beirut airport after hariri. Naming a street and putting a statue for him will do fine.

well i think that the 2 ideas are great!
but i think that hariri made it one of his priority to build a new airport!
that's why i support the idea that it should carry his name!

It would be quite a good think to have all the deputies having to cross "sahet al-chahid R Hariri" before going to any meeting!!

Especially when it will be proved The Syrians and lebanese 3umala li souria killed him.

It will be an eternal, permanent and repetative lesson from history.
