yeah its getting published at egocentrics publishing house,its given the title memoirs of a madman.The first chapter,entails how as a toddler he used to hold his breath and turn blue if he didnt get what he wanted.
I bet Bassil and other FPMers want so badly to divorce themselves from the rest of the opposition,Maybe the subject of the Lebanese Army proved to be more influential then it seemed by causing a few cracks to appear between the Orange camp and the Yellow camp.It sure put cracks in Aouns head, appearing in a speech he spat the dummy and in a frustrated gesture told M14 to piss off already….and stop blaming Syria for everything.

hmmmmm, tayyar.org didnt mention nassrallah speech! well at least i couldnt find it…

The REAL reason Hez doesn’t want the army going in to refugee camps

Abbas Zakir, the Palestinian Authority’s most senior representative in Lebanon, outlining the alleged Hizbullah weapons transfers into Palestinian camps. The letter noted “unusual activity” in and near the Palestinian camps, including the coming and going of trucks suspected of carrying weapons.

Palestinian groups, including Fatah and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command, maintain armed bases in Lebanon, mostly in the al-Naemeh province just south of Beirut and in the Bekaa Valley, near Lebanon’s border with Syria and Israel. Fatah is the party of PA President Mahmoud Abbas.

The reports follow a WND article last month quoting Lebanese officials claiming Hizbullah, with the help of Iran, started building underground war bunkers in Lebanon’s Palestinian camps.

During its 34-day confrontation with Hizbullah in Lebanon that began July 12, Israel destroyed scores of complex Hizbullah bunkers that snaked along the Lebanese side of the Israel-Lebanon border. Military officials said they were surprised by the scale of the Hizbullah bunkers, in which Israeli troops reportedly found war rooms with advanced eavesdropping and surveillance equipment they noted were made by Iran.

[...]

A senior Lebanese official, speaking on condition of anonymity, told WND Hizbullah started building a new set of bunker systems, this time in Palestinian refugee camps.

“The Lebanese Army doesn’t have the authority to patrol inside the camps,” said the official. “Hizbullah knows it is safe there to rebuild their war bunkers, and they began doing so with Iranian help.”

well if your sources are correct,and if this becomes a matter of fact,we can see a new issue arrising that can shatter Hizbollah.imagine they find Al Manar hq in those camps.

Maverick, with due respect, whether the claims are hogwash or not, Hezbollah must be shattered and declawed regardless. Your fears of the army splitting up notwithstanding, the army has a duty not only to protect the homeland, but also to rout the nation’s enemies (internal as well as external) and maintain the SOLE monopoly on weapons and the use of force.

And if your fears materialize Maverick, ya3né assuming the LAF ends up cracking over a bunch of foreign louts (and an illegal militia, aka “mu’aawamé”), then I’d say buh-bye and good riddance, let it freagin’ split because then it would have proven that it never deserved the “national army” label to begin with. In fact, (and I said this elsewhere in my comments to you) yours are the same kind of unfounded fears that the cretin Rachid Karamé advanced back in 1972 (and again later in 1975 and 1976 when he adamantly refuse to let the LAF do their job.) The LAF will split if called upon to keep order, so the cynics say! Well,that’s just a load of bunk, Maverick! Had the army been allowed to take the streets and perform its national duty (unhindered by Karamé’s base sectarian considerations) back then, it would NEVER have been emasculated and would never have had the chance to sit idly by, percolating and commiserating over (or getting in touch with) its ethno-religious make up. The Lebanese “civil war” would NEVER have taken place!

The LNA of the 1960s and 1970s split PRECISELY because it was crippled by unprincipled politicians more concerned with their “Arab nationalist” credentials than with Lebanese sovereignty and national prerogatives. It split because it was PRECLUDED from fulfilling its national duty, not BECAUSE it fulfilled it!!!

The Army’s job is to protect the homeland, Maverick, not “remain above the frey” and watch the homeland get torn asunder by a bunch of foreign predators and their local stool-pigeons!

One doesn’t build a nation by shirking one’s duties!

agree 100% with Louis-Noel

I Agree Louis-Noel.

Hizbollah, Iran, Syria, Palestians etc. are using your country as a base for their evil program to destroy Israel. Don’t you see history reapeting itself?
Unless you wake up to reality you are doomed to become another Iran

LN Harfouche, I couldnt agree with you more,im wondering where i mentioned the counter to that argument.
I was actually predicting or actually hoping that the government get fascist(tough on opposition and dissent-external and internal-as opposed to the political label) for a short period,as did every post-revolutionary govt in modern History inorder to survive and protect its citizens.There is never a better time for the current govt to do this.see Joumblatts comment:”The state cannot … accept a compromise. The moment that it accepts a compromise, the state will vanish,” he said.
Finally they are taking up that responsibility.The LAF will not split,neither will the ppl,Neither will the country.Peace.

Israel: Where will the Palestinian refugees return to, after Nahr el bared has been ravaged?

‘Laa lil Tawtin!’
The banner reads on autostrade Jounieh. Christians are ahead in this affair, since they seem to be the target in Lebanon.
