Go back to the civil war my beloved country, for your leaders are unable to reach a pact that will make Lebanon triumph over a definite civil war.

After several attempts of dialogue, major politicians are unable to form a national unity government. The opposition led by Hezbollah and the Free National Movement is calling for a quarter quota for any potential government established, while the majority led by Future Movement refuses to give up its radical control of the government. Meanwhile many reports confirm weapons are being brought to the country like any other consuming product!

Last month the Lebanese people came seriously to foresee a break-out of a new civil war. The opposition led by Hezbollah, a Shiite militia and a strong ally to Syria, backed by the Free National Movement facilitated a strike which knocked the streets of Lebanon.
Both opposition and majority accused each other of using pistols during the strikes and demonstrations, two days later students at Arab university paid blood for the favor of their leaders, Lebanon proved again to be greatly divided.

The majority are accusing the Free National Movement of being a part of Syrian, Iranian coalition that is working against democracy, Lebanese sovereignty and the establishment of Prime Minister Hariri international court.

To what extent the Free National Movement can be a part of such coalition? The movement who is led by Prime Minster General Michel Aoun, a leader who fought for years for Lebanese sovereignty from his Paris exile, and traveled to the United States to give a testimony at the congress in favor of Lebanese sovereignty, freedom and independence while Syrian occupation was seen as a Guarantee for Lebanon in the view of the super powers.

The Free National Movement declares that it is only controlled by Lebanon needs and its agreement with Hezbollah is to serve Lebanese national peace and security. For the National Movement the Syrian occupation has come to an end and its Lebanese role to build good relations with Syria and work on their national unity in order to construct the strong Lebanon.

Prime Minister Hariri expressly reinforced a statement “Lebanon cannot be governed against Syria nor from Syria”

A statement today, the future movement and its allies definitely find it difficult to implement while Basher Assad is still in power.

In several occasions Walid Jumblat an ex-ally to the Syrian regime has repeatedly requested to overthrow Assad regime both in poetry and speech, a scheme the national movement does not support or perceives in favor of Lebanese national interest. Security is a Lebanese responsibility even if the Syrian regime is responsible of the assassinations that are taking place in Lebanon. It is Lebanon government role to prevent political assassination and blasts to occur. An objective the Lebanese government obviously finds difficult to reach while Lebanon widespread constitutional crisis opens a high way in front of the criminals to wickedly hit again.
By saying that head of the Syrian regime as a giant and a snake we instantly bring security to our country? We fear that Lebanon will be again a place for monsters and snakes!

We studied in comparative politics class that no war can break out without an external sign from foreign countries , this sign seems not available now but nothing prevent it from being in the near future since Lebanon civil war is the future we fear .

Sectarianism has made it road into the political core of the Lebanese people long time ago!
An agreement between two political parties has made elegant success on the language of hate but for others the Free National Movement became a close partner to a terrorist group obeying Basher Assad regime orders.
What brought the two parties together? What do they have in common? Did Prime Minister Aoun group become an ally to Syria? Did Aoun sign a deal with a classified terrorist group in order to satisfy his appetite for presidency?

In the political outlook of Aoun the agreement with Hezbollah is for peace and a prevention of civil war. It is true that the talk with Hezbollah made Aoun loss some of his Christian popularity for a session but it has made a civil war more difficult to break out.

Aoun asks why it was possible for the majority to make agreement with Hezbollah during the 2005 elections and it prohibited for him today to negotiate with Hezbollah to reach a national solution about the weapons!

What is the majority seeking? Are they asking that Hezbollah and a million Shiite to be departed to Syria and Iran? Do they want the Maronite church to cancel the negotiation committee with Hezbollah and declare war against the other part of the country? Do they eventually wish to disarm Hezbollah by force?

The revulsion against Hezbollah between some Christians is soaring, this dislike led a few of general Aoun ex-supporters to switch to the majority side and start their own war against the General. A well known supporter of General who lives in Canada and wrote hundreds of articles in General Aoun favor, the agreement with Hezbollah made him write against Aoun, visualizing that his own General that he knew is still in Paris while the one living now in Lebanon is a look like and a Syrian Iranian puppet!

It looks like the ex-supporter has never read General Aoun articles vigilantly or the Free Patriotic Movement political reform program from the start. Between Hezbollah dislike, sectarianism and national conciliation, sectarianism and Hezbollah dislike are wining; a unity government that supports its people seems out of range without an external sign!

The Lebanese need to come together in order to gradually resolve their own problems! Many are waiting for a sign from the Syrian and Iranians; others are accused of being puppets of French men or Feltman the American ambassador in Beirut.

Several incidents proof that Lebanese leaders did not learn from their own mistakes?

Are Lebanese parties preparing for a civil war? Is the fire under the ashes and war the only choice? In Beirut people went out to the streets with a sign in their hands “solve it”
We say solve it before Lebanon nightmares we fear come true!
