    this is all because of the Lebanese shiites support to the assassin in Syria, the Shiites are responsible with their allies the mad Aounist and SSNP in bringing Lebanon to the Civil war, they are the agents of Israel that want to divide the middle east into tribal/ religious nations that will fight each other and bring the middle east to the dark ages.
    There is no hope unless the main Christians /all  sunni and Druze stay out of the Assassin alouite in Syria who want to turn the attention to Lebanon with his Lebanese Shiites mercenaries and the SSNP .No one Killed the Sheikh today other than an officer who’s an agent to Syria and belong or to Hezbollah or SSNP. If Nasrallah doesnt put Lebanon on fire as his masters are asking him by trying to kill Geagea and other leader his head will be chopped . The Civil war is coming and this time the gate of hells are going to open !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

         Lack of knowledge, yeslamli the knowledge tabi3tak ana, what knowledge it requires, who else than Hizbollah is shooting and killing and arresting in Triploi innocent people without rights and without  trials, who ordered shooting of the sheikh today, do you think a slodier can open a fire on a religious figure even he didnt stop to the army which is not the case , what happened today is not a coincidence.The army is owned and runned by Hizbollah and SSNP and full of worms,Who’s arming Jebel Mohsen other than the assholes Hizbollah,Wo conquer west Beirut in 7 may 2008 and raped and killed and stole the apartments. Who tried to kill Geagea other than SSNP or Hizbollah.
        Are you trying to justify their acts , Who blocked Beirut and camped and peed and hashash intent for 2 years to cripple the country.And you say me who is bringing the civil war. The shiites with their hates and fanaticism and their loyalty to the assholes in Persia are going to bring us all down to hell. We need to finsih with this Mafia named Hizbollah and this party named SSNP need to be wiped of existence with their Hardan leader first !!!!

          Dateam .. I don’t think guss043 is saying he wants civil war … only that it seems the only possible thing that will happen … and that certain factions like to create it for their own good – while not caring how many women and kids suffer on their side either. Non-combatants are already cowering in fear night after night under their buildings listening to the shooting going on and hoping to be spared rape and death by immoral idiots.
          Urban warfare is war between chicken-shits basically … but it seems the popular thing here. No-one puts their ‘army’ on the field and faces the opposition. Meanwhile the rest of the citizens fear going for food and water … and have their nerves ground to pulp listening to the shouts and guns of the certifiably mad ‘warriors’. The noise from roaming ‘demonstrations’ send kids under the beds too – because they expect the guns are not far behind. Conditioning.
          And there is no justification for any of it. It’s become simply ‘the way’.

        This is not a forum for blasphemy. This forum is about freedom of expression.Lebanon is a country of 18 religious sects  and each one of them should be respected .

          Now yalibnan … REALLY … asking if guss is a Jew is not blasphemy. Jews are Jews, right?
          Blasphemy is something much more aggressive than that simple question.
          (Oxford: ‘Disrespectful talk about God or sacred things.’ From the Greek: ‘Evil-speaking’.)
          Asking Nastyrallah if he’s a porker is not blasphemous either, because he looks like it. Right? And there’s a lot of porkers around the pork-barrel in Liban.
          Jews in and of themselves are hardly gods or sacred objects. None of us are.
          Mahdi may have been taking a disrespectful swipe, but at a man … probably because Mahdi mentioned those ‘gates of hell’ …. a favourite theme of several in here it seems to me.
          And hell … some of us don’t even think there’s much sacred anymore anyway. 🙂

          How can you know where i come from when i never told you???? Nothing but silly assumption.Beside what do you mean by “despite the fact that we know where you are from we have allowed you to participate in this free forum”? Does that mean that people from that country you assume I come from isnt worthy to this so called free forum? And if its free I dont need your permission to write and ask what ever i want. This is in fact what freedom of expression is really about… You have long way to go to understand the term freedom of expression just as long as the way to go to understand the term blasphemy, but fortunately 5th has been that nice to explain to you the meaning of the word.

          18 religious sects which all of them should be respected?? Well, first of all you should have worried about respect before the civil war in the first place. Second, the articles on this forum are totally obsessed by who is shia, who is sunni, who is druze, who is ahamdiyya, who is salafi like it was their relgious faith that was respondsible for their actions. Do you think that these articles promote “respect”???????
          Like Assad for instance, he is allawi, we all agree on that, and we dont need it to be repeated over and over again! And he is a dictator as well, and we all agree on that, but he is not a dictator because he is an allawi. Just like the puppets around the PERSIAN gulf are dictators but they arent dictators because they are wahabis. You should use your own advise and respect all the religious sect by stop being so obsessed by which religious sect people belong to… You should really tell you crew this..

           What war !!!! You seriously think that the Sunnis are capable of fighting a war. They are wossies with a capital P. They burn tires and say shit. The only thing they are capable of doing is killing Christian women and children. I had a conversation with my Mom this morning about the Akkar situation, they are doing the same same thing they did back in 1959 when my Dad was stationed in Halba. They used to go down with the intend of killing the army officer and when the army kicks their ass they used to come back with 3 dead. They repeated the same shit every week until they figured out how dump they are.
          How come they did not revolt and burn tires when the Syrians killed their highest Mufti? Now they act stupid over the killing of a low life cleric that no one knows what really happened. And why did he have so many guns in his car? Was he going to fight the Syrians? if he was, he was going the wrong way.
          People should wait and see what exactly happened. My sources tell me that his bodyguard opened fire on the army to get this deserving response.

    Gives me a flashback in 1975 when the army killed the fisherman in Saida. Many people dont refer to it, but that also was a big factor that started the civil war.
