Aoun The Deceiver

The political manipulation of the “Islamizing Lebanon” incident shows that the FPM’s leadership is yet again deliberately using deception as a political tactic.


Take two..

As I heard the Patriarch yesterday and the LF’s head Samir Geagea today, tearing apart point by point (Videos of Geagea’s excellent presentation here and here) the ridiculous claim that the Seniora’s government is “Islamizing” Lebanon, (proving that in fact this government is one of the most sensitive to Christians’ needs) I am starting to believe that deception is the weapon of choice for the FPM.

I gave Michel Aoun the benefit of the doubt in the infamous Photoshop incident, and before it, the Canadian orange paint incident. But now, I believe it is a deliberate FPM modus operandi.
