Bad.

Abu your answer above in red solicited the reply.

Let me try again:

OK so if the coalition government cant be formed on terms that please the opposition, then what? The logical choice would be to form a majority gov, is that possible? If so then under your assumptions, we would need to wait for GMA to be in a majority bloc so he can be part of a majority gov... and then we have the "GMA get to power" you talked about. So again let's see what transpires in 2013.

Please let me know if I am being bad again :)

Hahaha...Look Joseph, I will be more than happy to discuss this issue with you. But it's not my point.

My point is that before judging whether GMA is sectarian or not, good or bad, i need to see him in power, so i can judge him on real performances.

Now, the "Why" and "How" and "When" he gets in power is not relevant to the issue i'm raising.

So here again, you're still trying to be bad...Although I share some responsibility for slipping that line in my previous reply...But you know me...I can't help it either.

For me, there are no maronite rights, orthodox rights, catholic rights... there are citizens rights to start with. Now since lebanese are divided into communities, we go a step further and talk about the rights of these communities (until further notice). History and experinece taught us that as long as there is on community who is feeling frsutrated and unsecure the whole country is in problem.
From this point on, I understand the christian rights, the sunite rights, the shiit rights...

And since you're asking, no I didn't leave because of the bombs and I certainly am not moving back when I rot.

Take some lessons from the people of the south and watch how they go back under the bombing you'll get a deeper insight into our mentality which is very different to that of many. We know that war is coming, yet we're building our homes. And if they collapse, we're gonna build them again. We don't sell land, we buy. People might not have money to eat, but they would die and not sell their land. Call it being stubborn, call it being crazy, that's how we run and that's what we teach our kids.

And people on the other side prefered cash money, they dont want the mar2ad el 3anzeh.

Fa2er el sha3eb, buy them and then rule them.
