Saudi Journalist Reveals His Favorite Lebanese Politician

October 12, 2010 · Mustapha Hamoui

Jameel Al-Theyabi:

The only one who probably remained steadfast and never changed his positions ever since he exited jail is Samir Geagea. Indeed, the leader of the Lebanese Forces was not shaken by Hezbollah’s intentions and threats, thus continuing to call for the truth to salvage Lebanon and the blood of the martyrs.

Say what you want about Mr. Geagea, I am finding the above sentiment echoed in many Lebanese Sunni circles especially in their northern stronghold. He is the wise 2abaday who is steadfastly and calmly standing up to Hezbollah and Syria and not selling out (as opposed to certain leaders whose names shall not be mentioned).
