A mass was held on Sunday morning in Saint Georgios Cathedral in the Nejmeh square in downtown Beirut to commemorate the fifth anniversary of MP and journalist Gebran Tueni’s assassination, National News Agency (NNA) reported.

Beirut Orthodox Metropolite Bishop Elias Awdeh performed the mass, the report said.

Awdeh said during the commemoration :

Gibran was a believer, a man who loved freedom and did not compromise on any of its principles. He was sincere in what he believed and was deeply convinced he was defending freedom until he was martyred . His sword was the pen, and his weapon was that strong voice. Dialogue was his principle and finding the truth was his obsession.

He added: Gebran loved his country and wanted it to be free, independent and prosperous.

Tueni was murdered on December 12, 2005.

    Every Lebanese who wants the best for their country are quickly eliminated, and those who want to f&^% it and give it away to a greater power roam around freely, selling their dignity and loyalty to a greater scum.

  4.  For the less active there are bridge clubs, computer clubs, sewing and craft clubs and most of the bars have pool and darts teams if you prefer a pint with your chosen sport! In the summer there are volleyball and football tournaments on the beach and a weekly outdoor cinema.

  6. Javea is a lovely, seaside town which was once just a fishing village. Nowadays it still has a working fishing port but it is also an attractive holiday resort. You can book a luxury holiday villa for rent in Spain here, many of which can be rented from the private owners. If you want self-catering holiday accommodation in Spain in a picturesque town with a sandy beach and good tourist amenities this could be your perfect destination. The old part of the town is unspoilt and some of the shopkeepers speak the local language of ‘Valenciano’.
