You Have To Earn The Right To Criticize The Butros Harb Law

January 9, 2011 · Mustapha Hamoui

Good point from Maya Mikdashi:

There are many people who are against this draft law but support the indefinite extension of the Tai’f Accord’s “troika system” that splits political power between Sunnites, Shiites, and Maronites.[2] They are against the law, but not the logic that engenders it. Harb’s draft law is a symptom, not the disease.

While I agree with her point, I think we should also submit that some people accept the logic of the troika begrudgingly, but find the Harb law so disturbing that they decided to draw a line in the sand.
