Fell free to improve/expand :) ya bronx, if it would a “elect a blogger personality” – sectarism aside – imagine the “damage” this list would do:

BV – brezident! :)
AK – PM
Mus – Head/Speaker of parliament
JW – defense minister (some heat in sleiman ass)
Jeha – foreign minister (now the levant burns)
BJ – Ministry of Interior (whip the ISF)
Failasoof – Health
Frenchy – Culture :)
Marillionlb – finances (c’mon, the guy owns a resturant – it must make profit)
Tony B2B – Ogero (divine sayyed fox hole area code will be 666)

The problem of doing things by memory is that you can forget lots of folks, but – hey – it’s the public service, there’s always place for one more….

Fell free to improve/expand :)

While your obvious intelligence, maturity, firm grasp of reality, sincerity and such would put you at a disadvantage given the current crop of disorganized, self centerered, doubtful facts dispensing, etc. group of politicians, you'd get my vote.

He is obviously here to incite stupidity and detract from civil and mature discussion. He'll torpedo every argument he doesn't like by saying "it's a lie made up by Jews and Zionists", regardless of any proof based in fact. Just ignore him and carry on with your discussion folks. I think the matter at hand in this post by Mustapha (in which he was pretty even handed by alluding to both alleged HA abuses AND those of M14 sympathizers in Halba) is whether the latest events should be viewed as part of "fitna" or not. In my opinion, they clearly are. I agree with the opinion stated above that we shouldn't sweep this stuff under the rug, or pretend it's not there. Mus was not inciting religious hatred, but he is clearly trying to face the fact, on the ground, that it is here and it is real. And the sooner we accept that reality, the sooner we can start working a solution to it, rather than living in denial (as Lebanese are so prone to doing) until it's too late.

Do you fully condem the killings of innocent civilians (including unarmed men, women,and children) in Beirut by murderous psychopaths Hizabllah, amal and SSNP? If not, who is the real traitor to their country? Abdul,

Don't be fooled for a second that the leaders of each side care about religion, all they're after is power. And like @2:41AM already said, religion is used as a tool to rally the masses. Most people don't want to die for leader X, but they have no problem sacrificing their lives for God Y. and the saddest part is, there is no such thing as a religious war.

That's your problem you moron, anyone disagrees with you is a traitor. While your type selling the country to the Iranian thugs are considered the true Lebanese. It must be frustrating to be pro-HA these days after witnessing what these terrorists did to their own country. I know it's hard to bare Abdul, maybe you should just start listening to the truth rather than your sayed's rubbish. As for your delusional threats they won't intimidate us for you proofed nothing in your latest attacks except that you are frustrated and angry street hooligans. This time Beirut will be ready for you, we'll treat you like the sewage pests you are. Bring it on mullah... Abdul,
