I will tell you a little story about a man who has decided to hit the first nail in the coffin of the loyalists coalition. It's not a story about death however, it's a love story, a life love story to be specific.
Among the lebanese leaders in general and the coalition of 14'th marchers in particular, there's only one man who can claim he is a professional "life lover". This man does truly excel in his love to live. Give him life under any form or shape and he'll live it happily. He can live under syrian sandals from Damascus or Tartous, he can live inside cheap israeli underwear from Tel Aviv, he can live on the rolling skulls of christian, shia or sunni lebanese, as the underdog of a palestinian mercenary or as a street cleaner in an american city.. And if you ask our man "what do you do for living?" he'll tell you: "Anything..".
I am sure any well paid lawyer may succeed in defending this supernatural capacity for such an unconditional love affair. A generic argument would be: Being all too chicken to lose ones own life and feudal treasures is nothing to be ashamed of. So true, and Until the time comes when little chicken has consumed all its 'life loving opportunities' every extra minute that is given this horrified little pecker, is very valuable and most precious.
And so it seems we are now approaching the final cut when all the crossroads, mazes and alleys which so far have taken our little chicken on a survival journey, have converged on the same spot it all started from: Towards Syria and Syrias number one and strongest lebanese allies, Hizbollah.
Abandoned by that naughty boy, Welsh, who had incited him to push Siniora towards the may confrontation, and after consuming the blood of his FM allies, Jumblat's turn was quick, shortly before and after Doha. The self proclaimed leader of 14'th march coalition is now set to dismantle it, believing he is now back under the age of Hizbollah and Syria and at their mercy. The poor FM and LF will soon get left behind and Sinioras visit to him tonight, as Hariris probing envoy, must have left some interesting after taste, for both to reflect sourly upon during the next weeks.

(guess it was chicken wings he served him)
This time however, chicken will be left all on its own, with no wings, no shortcuts and no nothing to hope for.. The chicken has now become a sitting duck.. Who's next in line to learn?
