Memorial will be held at St. Gergios Church, Downtown Beirut at 5 pm on Tuesday 13th December.

Annahar released this video and I don’t know how I feel about it. I am glad this oath is a substance that keeps his memory alive among the people BUT Gebran Tueni accomplished a lot more than that oath!! I think it’s sad that people insist to summarize his life by an oath that the youth chanted one day and forgot what it even means today. So much for an oath!

Tomorrow, December 1st is World AIDS day.  Spread the awareness. Spread the red.

Each day, in Africa alone, 5000 people are dying of AIDS.

Don’t take risks. Stay safe.

Stop huffing and puffing and go to the damn streets if you want to! Get it over with!
Business have been on hault and people living in fear, and people not leaving their neighborhoods in fear that the demonstrations can start at any moment.

Is your aim to freeze the country or the government?

Khalsoona ba2a! Kilkon adrab min Ba3dkon

Oh and in regards to Orange Man, I want to thank him for a wonderful stand-up comedy show press conference last night but more importantly I want to thank Bassam Abou Zaid (LBC correspondent) for his great questions.

What happened at Sassine on Monday was a shameful disgraceful act. I cannot believe LFers and FPMers almost killed each others for a POSTER !

Are we serious here ? What if they put the poster back ? Where’s the big deal ?
Where was Spiro to call down those thugs ?? where is he anyway ? too scared to go out ? needs another bodyguard maybe ?

Dont worry no one will kill an incompetent like you … go down to the streets and calm those LFers who are polluting our image the same way few thugs did almost 20 years ago ..
Where are LF representatives ? Deputees ?

No one is realizing how damaging this incident was, and the LFers are to be blamed because they had no right in tearing the poster down, and no right in stopping the Aounists of putting the poster back, regardless what Aoun or Aounists did !!

If They are thugs, do we have to act like them ?
If they intimidate us, do we have to insult them back ?
If the army shows up, do we have to beat them up ?

I am just wondering what would have Bashir done, whose memorial is right in the middle of Sassine. He would have made those kids regret every insult they said throughout their whole life, not just that night

In 2004, we would get beat up for demonstrating, in 2005 we demonstrated against the Lebanese Army’s wishes, and in 2006 we’re beating each other up.

*sigh*

Thanks to Around the clock on Lebanese Blogger Forum

They are enjoying narguileh and playing football with the Lebanese Army

Seriously! Check out the news today and tell me they are not confused!!

The Christians are fighting over posters of their leaders, and as usual are not united at any level!!! Hizballah is planning peaceful surprises and random actions in the streets. Plus, people are arguing if the people the Lebanese Army caught are 9 LFers with arms practicing or Pierre Daher’s bodyguards and forgetting there is there is a party that has an army!  As if all that is not enough, people seem to mentally prepare themselves for a civil war.

Enough with all this crap already!!!

I have the best solution for all your problems: Take all these so called leaders and place them on a never ending cruise.  If every Lebanese in Lebanon donates 1$ we can gather around 4 million dollars which would get this cruise started.  I promise you, we will live in peace when all of them are gone.

I swear! I just received a video of Pierre in the hospital after he died getting cleaned up and stitched up!! Why would anyone film such a thing and send it out??? Amine looks like he is in shock, Sami is crying, I think his wife is in it.. some Saudi guy walks in and out PLUS they showed Chartouni’s body naked on the next bed getting cleaned up!

This is just so sickening!!

I want to thank N10452 for making my day with the above song. Listen to it. I propose it as one of the hizb songs…

I think thats the best place to hold the 7iwar sessions, cause it seems our politicians only know keef yita3mouna hawa ( lama 2oul chi tene) …. so this place should be very inspiring for them.

(Hint to Ram : Am trying to impress to get into the 2arraftouna 7ezeb)

Translation of the arabic quote: Batrak Sfeir: The Christians are divided

Last night, me and N10452 opened up the Lebanese constitution and the Taif accord to check out how does Lahoud consider the present government unconstitutional and how true is it that the PM cannot request an emergency cabinet meeting.

The conclusion:
Article 95, section 3(a) of the constitution, states that “The confessional groups are to be represented in a just and equitable fashion in the formation of the Cabinet.” However, it does not mention about what happens when an entire confessional group resigns whilst over two-thirds of the Cabinet remains therefore we concluded that the topic is still disputable.

Article 33, states that the President of the republic in consultation with the Prime Minister may summon the Chamber to extraordinary sessions by a Decree specifying the dates of the opening and closing of the extraordinary sessions as well as the agenda. The President of the Republic is required to convoke the Chamber if an absolute majority of the total membership so requests. BUT that is in regards to the chamber of deputies. In regards to the Council of Ministers, Article 64 section 6, the Prime Minister calls the Council of Ministers into session and sets its agenda, and he informs the President and the Ministers beforehand of the subjects included on the agenda and of the urgent subjects that will be discussed.

May someone please, explain to me in that case what are Lahoud and Berri talking about? Berri said that “Under Article 52 of the constitution, an emergency meeting of the cabinet must have the approval of the president of the republic,” but when I check the constitution, this is what I found under Article 52:
The President of the Republic negotiates international treaties in coordination with the Prime Minister. These treaties are not considered ratified except after agreement of the Council of Ministers. They are to be made known to the Chamber whenever the national interest and security of the state permit. However, treaties involving the finances of the state, commercial treaties, and in general treaties that cannot be renounced every year are not considered ratified until they have been approved by the Chamber.

Seriously people, can someone explain all this to me.

Ooh baby
Come to me baby just come to me
Don’t brake my heart tonight
Swinging my soul desire
Baby just come to me
Be what you wanna be
Using your fantasy
I need your soul to see
Baby just come to me
Now we can do it right
Holding each other tight
Now we can make it right
I promise you delight
Waiting until day light
I gotta have the key
To open your heart to me
Now i can set you free
Be what you wanna be
Don’t wanna live alone
I gotta be so strong
Don’t wanna be alone

Baby i love you so
And never let you go
I’m looking for your face
Waiting for warm embrace
I’m living in the space
I’m following your trace
Tell me what’s going
On tell me what’s going on
I’m gonna make you queen
Girl have you ever seen

I never think you wanna
We won’t belong
I can see your face too strong
I sing you wanna think
You’ll be wide on mind
Don’t you ever satisfy my soul in any
By my side, I’m not laughing
I’m not crying
Don’t you go

Baby i love you so
And never let you go
I’m looking for your face
Waiting for warm embrace
I’m living in the space
I’m following your trace
Tell me what’s going
On tell me what’s going on
I’m gonna make you queen
Girl have you ever seen
