Baabda Elections 2009

[Le General Michel Azar]

Man i think that Hizbullah represent the majority of shiites in Baabda.
But as an FPMer i think taht Ramzi Kanj should be a shiite candidate.
Tayyar should nominate a shiite candidate in Baabda.

Fine then, if Ramzi Kanj is such an important asset for FPM, let FPM/HA swap a christian seat from FPM with a shiite onefrom HA. Otherwise it is not fair in such an important and critical caza to give one side of the opposition 5 seats out of 6.

wlik kif 5 ?
It is 4/6 ye3ne 66% which is the real value of FPM in Baabda

Samir azar is the same for Berri....
and fouad saad for jumblatt
and ghattas khoury for hariri
badna nekhlass men heik MP that represent someone else
Ramzi kanj falls in the same category - unfortunately

Is it me but why don't we have Ramzi Kanj in Ba3bda and 2 out of 3 candidates in Jezzine and get on with it? And we can say we "gave" Berri one seat in Jezzine to show we also can make sacrifices for the unity of the Opposition and move with it

انا اعتقد ان الحل المقبول هو تسمية رمزي كنج في بعبدا مقابل ضم عازار للائحة لأنه ليس حالة طارئة في جزين ولو كان التيار يستطيع الفوز وحده في جزين وأجزم ان هذا ما سيحصل لان من خير المعقول ان يسحب حزب الله امين شري من بيروت ليسمي مكانه مرشح اخر في بعبدا اذ من الواضح ان الحزب سيعرض على التيار مقعد الشيعي الثاني مقابل حفظ مقعد لعازار

The only solution is to secure Kanj and Jezzine's 3rd seat either by concensus with the opposition or through a "friendly" battle in Jezzine where the people decide if they are satisfied with how Samir Azar represented the region in the last 20 years on the development AND political levels.

NO WAY! NO WAY! NO WAY! The FPM is already making concessions as it is. In the same way that Hezbollah is forming a 10/10 ticket in Baalback/Hermel and Berri is forming a 3/3 ticket in Zahrani, FPM can do the same in Baabda and win 6/6 including both Shiite seats and the Druze seat. We are already making concessions as it is by leaving a seat for Hezbollah in Baabda and the Druze seat open for consensus. That's 2 seats the FPM is conceding for the sake of opposition unity. You also want us to concede a 3rd seat kermel opposition unity and in an area where Berri+HA would be lucky to win over 15% of the vote. Are you being serious? This is no longer opposition unity and rather the same greediness of Jumblatt/Hariri. Tene shee what opposition when you have Berri dealing with Jumblatt under the table and with Hariri in the open?

i hope there won't be any battle in Jezzine and the situation is solved quickly...

FPM has candidates in more than 16 districts (am i right about this number?)... therefore FPM will need to provide representatives to monitor the elections in all these 16 districts....

if the competition is mild, then representatives from that district can be allocated somewhere else...

not to mention, all wasted resources to run a hot campaign in Jezzine.. don't forget that FPM is running against KSA... their resources are endless...

Didn't GMA declare 2 days ago that Ramzi Kanj is the second shiite opposition candidate in Baabda? Why are you guys still including him in the deal regarding Jezzine?
