1 objective

We should not forget what our objectives are.

As much as finding out who killed the 14+politicians/journalists & 40+innocent civilians is important. No wait, let me rephrase that. As much as proving that the Syrians are behind most of the murders over the last 30 years, there is something bigger than the international tribune. It is called Lebanon.

Although the international tribune remains an objective we would like to achieve, there is something more urgent that needs to be taken care of. It is a threat to the freedom, independence and democracy of Lebanon. It is parasite, a blood sucker. It is called Hizballa.

While people are debating whether the best formula is 20-10 or 19-10-1 or whatever combination you like, this "party of god" (God please help his god) is piling up weapons. and don't be surprised if Israel decides to strike again, destroy again and kill again. What we can do to prevent that is to disarm Hizballa and send Nasralla to Iran, or maybe Syria (although I am sure el Assad would not welcome him).

They are manipulating us like pieces of chess. We are lost in a bottomless abyss.
We need to wake up and re-focus.
We should look at the bigger picture.
They are the real threat.
They are gaining time and time is not on our side.

Anna

I am sick and tired of watching, hearing and reading about Anna Nicole Smith.

Not that her life, and her achievements are not important. From being on the cover of playboy magazine, to the billboards wearing Guess jeans, to marrying a 90 year old oil tycoon. What a life. Impressive.
Actually, what an after life. She is more on TV, dead than alive. People fighting over money she does not own (yet).

Doesn't the American media have something better to talk about and dissect other than this fruitful and productive fcuked up life? Maybe Britney's new haircut?

Damn.

I am calling for an urgent meeting

I want to leave it up to them, because we, as humans, are doing a lousy job.

We should have Jesus Christ, Mohamed, and David sit at the same table, and discuss the current world situation. They don't know the mess they have left us in.

I don't care what you believe in. And you should not care what I believe in. Hell, I can believe in hell, or onions. but you should not even care because my beliefs do not, and should not, interfere with your life.

We get carried away with meaningless details. In the meantime, our life is passing by. And by the time we realize that, we are too old to enjoy it.

Until then, good night and good luck.

Le vagabond éternel

It has not been two years since I did my interviews.
And now I see myself, on the road again. Exploring new options, new places, new people. I might have to leave "everything" (or whatever I have) behind and start all over again.

Le vagabond éternel. Et je sais que je ne suis pas le seul.

As soon as we feel that wherever we are, is starting to become like home, look like home and smell like home, we find ourselves wandering again. As if we are not allowed to stand still, and grow.
And I look around me, and people actually have "the option of going back home", wherever home is. But not for us.

We are doomed, to roam, away from home, family and friends. I want to be myself and live my life. home, where I belong.

Deraciné, jusqu'a quand?

Hypocrisy

This is slightly confusing to me, to say the least. And maybe someone can help me figure it out.

If I were to teach a kid about hypocrisy, there is no better example than Nasralla.

For years and years, he disregarded the existence of a nation or a government. He built his own state, within a state. Him, and Mr.Berri, mislead the people in the South. Instead of education and construction, they invested in wars and weapons. Go and ask Berri about the funds that were destined to the reconstruction of the South.

Recently Nasralla decided to join the government. It was obvious that he is only used to an autocracy. Well, that is not the case when there are many players. Decisions are not one sided, whether it is war, reconstruction or economy.

The swiftness and rapidity with which they acknowledged that the truck filled with weapons was theirs was phenomenal, really. They knew that they were the prime suspects. But to ask for it back, this is hilarious, shocking.
They resigned from the current government and called it unconstitutional. Fine. But they cannot now say that this same "illegitimate" government allowed them to arm and fight. Isn't there an obvious contradiction? You cannot embrace one side and reject the other.

Tayyar website, great in making up stories, and quoting journals such as Al-akhbar, ASS-afir and addyar hardly talked about this incident, phenomenal. They are busy talking about Michel Platini and Miriam Fares on MTV Europe.

Elias el Murr kept a low profile in the recent turmoil, avoiding major confrontation with either sides. He even distanced himself from his father (good for him). His stances and governmental decisions are pretty smart: "if Israel carries out another violation, we will use these weapons to confront it". Fighting fire with fire.


HYPOCRISY, Mr.Nasralla.

And happy Mar Maroun, although I am sure He is not happy.
