[...] I believe this is a very positive trip, specially with the ongoing elections, it is a chance to get international recognition and make good contacts with the current administration and all candidates. Obama’s statement yesterday, as reported by the Beirut spring, was indeed encouraging as to where the Democrats stand from Lebanon. [...]

josey wales,
a job well done. just as i expected from you, and instructed you to do.

by the way, those who can’t do, actually make bad teachers. which is why you spend your time teaching us so much.

Ibn Bint el…

Why don’t stick to teaching art (those who can’t, teach) and to defending the Arab nation on the front lines of Detroit, MI.

Here are my two cents.

Obama is running on “pro-change” platform.

It means anything and everything current administration ever done must be bad.
Whatever internal or external issue Bush (and of cause Republicans in general) got himself involved with must be criticized and “changed/fixed/improved”.
Lebanon happens to be one of those issues. Other than that I do not think he has a clue or desire to get involved.
I think it is nothing more than “just in case”.

AlMannar, Akhbbar, a-Saffir all paid thousands of dollars by the Syrian/Iranian axis to spread rumors – and yes I have amble evidence to proof it. just ask any of their journalist… duhh!

ibn bint jbeil,

if i could draw a straight face, i would.

a Lebanese: (legally speaking) is someone who carries around a lebanese passport, or lebanese ID documents. I.E. someone recognized by the Lebanese state as a citizen of the country.

a lobbyist: is (vocationally) a private individual who’s job it is to influence government decision making.

I don’t see any need for twisted faces here.

Oh, and I’m gonna let you in on a little secret – just so you can sleep better at night: that particular lobbyist is one tenacious son of a bitch! And he’s real good at what he does. So rest assured my friend, the Lebanese Lobbyist prowls the streets of DC, New York, Boston, and wherever just to make Lebanon a better place for you and your kids to return to – unless of course yo prefer a Hizballahistan.

hey panty hosey, are you sure change is what lebanon needs? did you steal the “change” mantra from obama? by the way, you and bad vilbil are correct, the lebanese certainly are getting stupider: namely lebanese like you. is this a CORRECT analysis? instructions to you: insult me back. or nuke me.
mustapha: are you serious? “a lebanese lobbyist in washington”?? can you actually look yourself in the mirror and say that with a straight face?

ali

Don’t be an idiot, I am making a point that is lost on people like you.

Namely that only a change inside Lebanon and/or a regime change is Syria will change things.

Obama’s words are meaningless.

You are right on one thing, no one will give a shit about Lebanon, certainly not when most Lebanese put Palestine/Iran/Syria etc above Lebanon.
