Bashir Jmayyel

September 16, 2005 · Mustapha Hamoui

In an attempt to convey the spirit of March 14, I hung up a pin of Bashir el Jmeyyel Next to that of Rafic Hariri (see above, next to beirutspring.com).
Many readers were offended and offered some good reasons.
To make myself clear, whether or not we “forgive” bashir Jmayyel is not the point here. The point is: should his pin be up there?

The discussion started in my previous post, but i’d like it to continue here. The debate will decide whether or not I keep it.
