Exactly. When religion is accepted as a private individual expression of faith there is room for a government to reform. Peaceful coexistence requires tolerance; intolerance leads to war.</description>

		<description>Jas,
Do not take it seriously, it was ment as a joke and to state that the only way to shut this deranged general up, who still claims that he represents the Christians (not only in Lebanon) was to excommuniate him. As for Nasrallah Boutros Sfeir, in my opinion he would be better off dealing with the needy within his flock and nothing else.</description>

		<description>marillionlb:
Ex-communication for Aoun? Really, haven’t religious leaders often exhibited less integrity than members of their congregations? Lifetime religious leaders or dictatorial regimes, historically and ever so many times: Power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely.</description>

		<description>To Ibn BintJbeil: If you think that speaker Berri hijacking the parliment is constitutional you&#039;re a hypocrite.  If you think inimidating your opponents by slaughter and elimination is constitutional you&#039;re a coward. This is history unfolding to the lebanese.  If you feel safe watching you&#039;re fellow lebanese being targeted one after the other and sill going through the constitution to make your case, you&#039;ve lost your sanity. Allow me to tell you one thing my fellow citizen, the truh will prevail no matter how many lives the slaughter and the carnage will sill take, it is lebanon&#039;s destiny to be fought by its neighbours and by its own, yes it is Lebanon&#039;s fate to pay for Syria&#039;s pride and its lost Golan heights and for the Paletinians&#039; own divisions until Jerusalem is forever gone and for Israel&#039;s survival and for the Muslims long lost conquests and glory and for the Panarabs long-lost dreams of unity and for the extremists Jihad and for Iran&#039;s nuclear dream. Enough bullshit We lebanese want to live in peace, spare us your Jihad and spare us your hypocrisy for God&#039;s love. We want to excell in science and economy we want to create opportunity for our kids and our future generation, we want to write and speak freely, we want to buld a nation.  Lebanon is sick of you people, and bintjbeil has the guts to quote me, unconstitutional!!!</description>

		<description>Mustapha, I know you won&#039;t get affected by trashy comments. We love your website and we tolerate opposite opinions... unlike Safavid, Aounite and Alawite.

As for March 14th, they should keep the faith and the fight.
Could March 14th leaders start working actively on the ground with the population to stop demographic bleeding?!</description>

		<description>Dory said: if the Government move appears to be unconstitutional for some, the HELL with them, they can only &quot;complain, wail and protest like an old bitch.&quot;

In fact that is an exact description of the government move.</description>

		<description>I seriously doubt the savvy of M14 and Saniora&#039;s governement. Every single solution that has been put forward so far is in blantent breach of the constitution regardless of how some are trying to justify such proposals. The only legal way out of this impass is a 50+1 vote.
What baffles me the most is this fixation on Me.Suleiman, this new found saviour. I would seriously hate to see another military man for president.
And since this is the holiday season and joy should be spread, allow me to leave you with this joyful idea.
What if Michel aoun was to be ex-communiated for his recent attacks against Bkerke? Think about what it would entail.
Yalla ya Batrak make this bald move.
Happy holidays to all.</description>

		<description>Well, at least now M8 know that they&#039;re not the only people who can play foul, since I noticed a certain tendency to contend &#039;Unconstitutional&#039; moves by Saniora. A few questions for the wise:

1. Where is the constitutionality of not allowing the parliament to convene?

2. Where is the constitutionality of not allowing the parliament a vote of confidence to the Saniora government?

3. Where is constitutionality about accepting the 2000 electoral law in Mount Lebanon and not in &#039;some&#039; other regions?

4. Where the hell is constitutionality when some ministers theoretically are resigned and declaring the government &#039;unconsitutional&#039;, while in fact they are practicing their duties selectively?

I guess the eleventh amendment was right; bless you Pierre Sadek LOL</description>
