OTV created on public funds. But funds managed by "family". OTV performs BAD, as i see in nearby threads. Everybody agrees with that. What is done to fix that? Nothing. Sure, because there is "no talented people between hundreds of thousands FPM people, other than Aoun relatives to take key positions". I don't believe in that, sorry. It is matter of style of business.
I dont say FPM is worse than other politics, but they are same. And when someone from FPM says about fight with feudalism he must start from himself. |
Nuclearcat, you're the typical "lebanese independent", pretending that lebanese politicians are all the same but insisting on bashing the persons that the lebanese "gauche caviar" love to bashing : GMA, FPM.
Granted "C'est plus chic" (courtesy from our Tantes d'Achrafieh).
Though, I'll comment only your irrelevant example, OTV management. First of all, OTV's management is only accountable and liable to OTV's shareholders. However, pretending that OTV's management is a perfect example of FPM style management is some kind of a very cheap shortcut and really unfair.
It's unfair because you're implying that your judgment is based on the principle of accountability. Notwithstanding the fact that the OTV example is in my opinion totally irrelevant, your judgment can't be taken seriously if you don't apply the principle of accountability to the other political side.
If you base your opinion on the principle of accountability, how do you view the other political parties ? What about Hariri's future movement, what are its achievements since 1992 ? What about Jumblatt's PSP - what are its achievements since 1975 ? What about Geagea's LF - what are its achievements since the mid-80's ? Etc. etc.
As an "independant", you accuse GMA of destroying the country. A baseless accusation in my opinion when you consider the other political parties history, governing performance and current positions.
In fact and if you're honest, you can't but recognize that it's impossible to make any comparison between FPM and the other political parties : FPM never collaborated with occupying forces, never massacred people, never betrayed Lebanon, never stole the lebanese.
You see, your kind of "independant" view and opinion is what led us to keep in power those who destroyed our country, collaborated with the occupying forces, and keep applying the same principles of governance as those in force during the syrian occupation.
Now, even if your opinion seems to be "plus chic" than mine, I would appreciate that you - and the other lebanese - try to apply the principle of accountability before forming any opinion on FPM and GMA. Just for the sake of avoiding the usual intellectual dishonesty in our discussions...
