True, but he'd be the last to have interest in such a position. It doesn't suit him...

Before talking about democracy i would prefere to erase the secterian way of life from the heads of the lebanese ( all the lebanese) in order not to take "orders" neither in form of a taklif shar3i nor in a form of "3izat el a7ad" wa ou3zira man anzara |
Why did you give such a response? We're the vast majority. Lubnan lana wa na7nu lahu. What's the big deal? I think the Shiaa are over 40% based on what I've seen. And mind you, those abroad are much more than anyone can ever imagine. We've got over 6000 from our little village with Australian passports. And that's only the Australian. So go figure.
You misunderstand what a takleef shar3e is, and it certainly doesn't apply in this context. In short, when you promise someone something, you have to fulfil that promise. That's what a takleef shar3e asks of you when two parties unite during elections. So in other words, no backstabbing. There is no such thing as someone telling you 'you have to vote for me', but there could be such a thing (to who 'choose' to follow) when unity with others is the subject.
You cannot 'force' anyone with a takleef shar3e. And you cannot 'create' based on nothing. As I said up there, it's about fulfilling a promise:
ألإسلام يؤكد بوجوب رعاية العهد
“وَالْمُوفُونَ بِعَهْدِهِمْ إِذَا عَاهَدُواْ "
So, all that takleef serves is a reminder. You don't need a takleef shar3e to tell you not to backstab those you gave a promise to. We all know that already
Besides, we're hardly doing anything the shar3 is telling us to do, so how you manage to arrive to your conclusion up there, I fail to understand. When you talk takleef shar3e, you talk of someone who is basically '3ala siraten mustaqeem', not ordinary humans who don't even do their religious obligations to start with. I'd say someone who does give that amount of concern to "fulfilling a promise" has got to be an angel from the heavens. How many of those do we have?
When we vote, we don't vote la shar3 wala ballout, we vote conscience. I'd feel
guilty if I don't vote for what HA see appropriate
if I don't spot any danger they are putting themselves in.
Democracy is your right to choose what you want. Ma 7ada 7emel saroukh bwejj 7ada. If we vote what we vote, we do it because we believe it falls within our interest. A mistake was made before because we were honest with those who deserved to be killed rather than backstabbed.
P.S. I didn't vote last time.
