Subject: RE: [Phoenicia] From Elias Bejjani/My new Commentary/On the LCCC
Date: Mon, 12 May 2008
Dear Mr. Elias Bejjani, I have been receiving and reading your articles since 2001, and for all the these articles I am thankful. I have come to realize that the biggest lie that have ever lived in the Christian community was Michel Aoun. If we go back in time we see that Michel Aoun took side of whomever he thought can promote him for presidency or for higher positions. He was with Sheikh Bachir when Bachir was the most powerful and promising man. He made several connections with the Syrians after the withdrawal of the Israelis when Syria became the most powerful and influential player. Many persons have revealed their many attempts and meetings with the Syrians to promote him (it goes without saying that Michel Aoun was sending them or at least having his approval). After the Syrians let him down by backing Sleiman Frangieh than Mikhael Daher for the presidency, he lunched in 1989 a destructive war against the Syrians with no equilibrium of forces costing the Christians and the free eastern regions to loose the status co established that time despite the difficulties the Christians had faced since 1975, knowing also that the eastern regions were relatively enjoying a better life than their partners in the western regions. In addition, the eastern regions were increasingly developing more organized resistance and getting more sophisticated weapons which allowed to establish a kind of equilibrium with the other parties backed by some 13000 Syrian troops. This war with its destructive results led to Taef agreement. As oppose to face the new facts he tried to deviate the Christians with different issue, the Lebanese forces. In 1990 he fought to eliminate the LF the only Lebanese resistance that time to the Syrian occupation to come in 2006 to ally with the only Lebanese militia backed by the Syrians and resisting to establishing a democratic and free Lebanon. Having also in mind that Hezbollah is a fundamentalist Islamic jihadist group having one nation, much bigger than Lebanon, the Islamic one. I would like to ask you to reconsider your previous opinion regarding the 'old' Michel Aoun, and only that time you will understand his current behavior.
Sincerely,
Joe Selfani

General Suleiman
"THE ARMY STAYS ON SIDE LINES AS HEZBOLLAH FALLS THE GOVERNMENT"
General Suleiman, the statement I listed above was the subject in all newspapers in the free nations around the world. General Suleiman, after the strike that took place in Lebanon on the 23rd of November last year and the attempt by some Lebanese army soldiers to assassinate Doctor Fares Saaid, I sent you a post card and wrote the following: "In 1976 Dean Brown gave Raymond Edde a choice between his patriotism or becoming a president, Raymond Eddeh chose his patriotism".
General Suleiman, I believe you did not read my post card and I can tell you that you gave up your patriotism for the gangster of the party of evil and you know very well that they are arresting and killing people in their secured areas. When asked about the arrested people, their answer is that these people surrendered to the Lebanese army. Michel Suleiman, you are covering these gangster who are killing innocent people in Lebanon. You will also cover their attempt to kill the patriotic leader Walid Jumblat. Michel Suleiman, the blood of the innocent Sunni people that was shed in the streets of Beirut will get to your house one day. Michel Suleiman, I would like to remind you that General Pinochet in Chile and General Diya Hakk in Pakistan were much more important than what you are right now and we all saw what happened to them.

Questions by a journalist
Date: 6 May 2008

Dear All,
A friend of mine visited me last week with his family and I want to share with you what he told me. He is a journalist who worked for a long time in the Middle East and he is familiar with the political details of Lebanon, Syria, Israel, Palestine and Jordan. He was a reporter for international magazines who lived a long time in Lebanon and the Middle East region. He told me that it is strange the story of Lebanon where you find gangsters and terrorists in the streets of Beirut who claim that they are Lebanese resistance. He was one of the international journalist who were listening to the news when Ehud Barak, the nominee of the labor party in Israel, was saying that he will withdraw the Israeli army from Lebanon if he wins the elections. This Journalist resumed his talk and asked what is the role in this case of these gangsters (Hezbollah), who represent the Axis of evil in Lebanon, in the withdrawal of the Israeli army from Lebanon? These gangsters are in control of too many Lebanese institutions and in between these institutions is the Lebanese postal service where they take all what they need when it arrives at the airport and after they filter it, they give the rest to the Lebanese postal office. He also added that everyone knows that the Syrian regime awarded Taha and Najib Mikati the contract of the Lebanese post and telephone. This journalist gave me an example on how powerful Taha Mikati is in Lebanon as he was beyond the law and he was able to appoint his brother as a minister for few times. He continued saying that in one of the Parliamentary sessions, former Prime minister Omar Karami accused Najib Mikati of stealing and lying in the presence of the government and parliaments members. As a result, President Assad was upset with Karami and the Syrian secret intelligence service in Lebanon worked against karami in order not let Karami win the next parliamentary elections and to humiliate him.
If at that time the Patriotic leader Walid Jumblat did not stand by Karami, and supported him, it would have been a big problem for Karami and he would have lost the elections and you would have seen him in Jail. My friend resumed his talk and asked few questions. He asked who would be able to return the journalist Nouhad Al-Mashnouk to Lebanon, after being forced out by the Syrian regime to leave the country, except for a powerful and influential man with the Syrian regime like Taha Mikati (Nouhad thanked Taha few times afterward)? How come a person with that influence in the Syrian regime, and has a lot of control over what he needs in Lebanon, was not interrogated by the international tribunal and asked how many times he had conversations with President Assad and few Syrian leaders about Lebanese patriotic politicians and especially Sunni Politicians? What are the subjects covered in these conversations? He said, for sure Taha Mikati thinks, with the money he made in corruption, that he can buy the conscience of few Lebanese.

War in Lebanon
Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2008
The ex-president Emile Jamil Lahoud is telling his visitors that there will not be a presidential election in Lebanon and not even parliamentary elections in 2009, but there will be war in the Middle East and the Axis of evil will win this war. Mr. Nasrallah, I hope you do not take a risk and participate in this war because you are going to lose. The reason you will lose this war is very simple. They have the new military technology and they know how to use it.
As for you, you have the old technology and you don't know how to use it. Mr. Nasrallah, if you participate in this war, you will destroy Lebanon and you will cause more immigration of the young generation. There is no reason to participate in this war if it is going to be for the purpose of helping the corrupted gangsters like Emile Lahoud to go back to power and abuse the government like they did in the last 30 years. Mr. Nasrallah, your missiles will not reach Israel this time because the new military technology will destroy them before they reach Israel. If you participate in this war, they can take all your militia's front line people as prisoners of war unless their strategy is to let your militia go back to Beirut where you can celebrate the divine glory after your get defeated. Mr. Nasrallah, please stay away from Ali Khamany's strategy because it is a destructive strategy for Lebanon and Iran. Please follow the strategy of Imam Moussa Sadar, who is in the image of the Holy Imam Ali, in order to save Lebanon and Iran. I would like to remind you that in the modern history of France and when France was in danger, Raymond Pointcarre called Clemenceau and said to him:" you know very well that I hate you but I'm calling in order to cooperate with you and save France". Mr. Nasrallah, please take the initiative to cooperate with March 14 movement in order to save Lebanon and Iran.

Mr. Nasrallah
I believe you watched TV recently and you saw how the media around the world covered the visit of Pope Benedict to the USA. You also watched how the media covered Dalai Lama previously. As for you, you live in hidden places and no one covers you. If you are interested in knowing the difference between them and you, I can tell you. The holy Pope and Dalai Lama relay a message of hope, peace and life when they talk. You talk only missiles, war and death because you are an image of the regime Ayatollah Khaminy established. You have nothing in common with the holy Imam Ali Khaminy's regime represents 15% of the people of Iran. The Iranian people are looking for a message of hope and life. The political strategy of this regime affected the economy and the welfare of the Iranian people and now 10 out of 40 millions live below the poverty level. This strategy gave Qatar the opportunity to produce gas, become wealthier and much more developed than Iran. And now the people of Qatar live a much better life style than the Iranian people. In return Qatar supports Iran, Syria and Hezbollah financially to buy missiles and keep the same war strategy in order for Iran not to have the opportunity to ask the western world for any technological help to produce their gas. Mr. Nassrallah, this political strategy of missiles and death destroyed Iraq and killed the Iraqi people and those who are still alive, they live in misery. This strategy is also affecting the Lebanese people and they are poorer now and their hope in life is being eliminated. Mr. Nassrallah, your missiles will destroy Lebanon like Iraq and are only protecting some corrupted politician.

To some people in my Town Zgharta, (North Lebanon)

During the Syrian occupation, the corrupted political leader in Zgharta was abusing the public sector. At the end of the day, only few of his supporters were given a small portion of what was taken from the government and they felt as if they are much better and more important than the other people who live in dignity.
I would like to tell you the story of a friend of mine called Chuck Feeney who worked hard all his life and made a fortune. When we used to go out to dinner, we used to split the bill and he used to pay only his share and never let his ego drive him. He never showed off or acted in a way to let anyone feel that he is better because of his money. Chuck established a foundation called Atlantic Philanthropy and donated all his money (8 billion dollars) to this foundation. He was so humble that he did not accept the foundation to be named after him. He donated hundred of millions of dollars to hospitals and universities and refused to put his name on any sign showing that he donated the money. Here's how some of Chuck Feeney's $ 8 billion dollars are distributed. He is giving away every year $ 400 million to charities. He gave away $1 billion to education in Ireland, the land of his forebears. He donated $588 million to Cornell University,$ 125 million for the cardiovascular center at the University of California in San Francisco and $ 60 million to the stanford Biomedical Center. I hope you can learn from this story. Stop to show off . You could feel better when you have few dollars in your pocket. Don't let the corrupted leader train you to hurt or offend the dignity of other people in Zgharta

Dear Mr Bejjani
The "civilized world" under the supposed "leadership" of George Bush appears to be in full retreat from all moral clarity and championing the human rights of Christian minorities. I'm sure you're familiar with the current situation in the Balkans where the Islamists are in the process of seizing sovereign territory from Serbia (Kosovo) and "cleansing" it of all non-Islamic peoples all with the support of the supposed leader of the free world, George Bush. Even now he (Bush) plans to supply the Islamists with additional arms so they can more efficiently carry out their genocide against Christian and other non-Muslim peoples. I won't speculate as to why we see the leader of the "free world" basically conducting genocidal policies against Christian populations of small free nations except to note that either he has gone mad, he is on drugs or mind control substances, he is under control of a handler or some combination of all three of these. Bottom line. Two things are clear: (1) America has totally lost control of its government, and (2) the Christian world and especially the Christian populations of Iraq, Lebanon and/or Serbia can expect very little in the way of help from Bush. And looking at the possible successors to Bush in 2008, the same will be true of the next administration.

Iraqi Christians: Exodus, Ethnic Cleansing & Identity Annihilation

I HAVE JUST READ YOUR COMMENTS
I share your concern for the future of Christianity in the Arab World, but not your assessment of who are the real culprits behind all the ongoing sectarian strife in the region. The war on Iraq is at Israel's behest. The real aim is to destroy that country and weaken it so that it poses no security risk to Israel. One way of ensuring that is through sectarian divide using the tried and tested method of "divide and rule"; hence the ongoing Shia/Sunni sectarian violence and its bi-product the targeting of Christians. I, myself, am a Christian Arab who deplores all acts of inhumanity not only against fellow Christians but all other innocents. To understand what is really going on, I suggest you read the text at the following link: http://knud.eriksen.adr.dk/summary.htm The plea for help to Christians from non-Arab countries who are nominally Christian will fall on deaf ears. Trust me, these countries are controlled and its rulers couldn't care less. The so-called moderate Arab countries are not interested in anything other than the preservation of the rulers and the clique directly benefiting from the regimes. Without wishing to prolong this message, the salvation of indigenous Christianity in the Arab world rests with those whom you least expect.
God bless, Sami Joseph

I watched your interview on LBC and I have few questions to raise.
1- you are setting up a security system around the area where you live.
I'm wondering if the Axis of evil already asked you to protect yourself and be ready for any troubles they are preparing for Lebanon.
2- you asked why Abdel Halim Kaddam does not tell us who killed President Maawad.
how come that someone like you who knows how the Syrian regime works is asking this question?
you know that President Hafez Assad set up a structure where none of the military departments can communicate with each other or with the politicians or the intelligence.
each of these departments can communicate only with President Assad.
It is president Assad who ordered the Syrian intelligence to assassinate President Maawad and it was facilitated by their agents in Lebanon.
3- You are defending the four officers, who are being held in jail for their involvement in the killing of Prime minister Hariri, as if each one of them is Mother Teresa.
I'm wondering what will happen to your credibility if the international criminal tribunal accuses them?
4- you are defending the Syrian regime.
I'm wondering what will happen to your credibility if the international criminal tribunal accuses this regime?
5- you talk about your friendship with Prime minister Hariri and at the same time when you were asked, in one of the funerals in Zgharta, who killed President Maawad, you replied that the Saudi Arabian Regime killed President Maawad because the Saudi regime wanted Hariri as prime minister and Maawad refused.
6- you say in the interview that your political opponents are bribing people and you are encouraging people to take the money as it is their money and it was stolen by these politicians.
I would like to ask you where did you get all the castles and the big housed you live in from? where did you get all the money you have in the banks?
7- you are saying that you asked your friends for support you in order to buy fuel and gas and distribute to people.
it is strange that you are talking about friends and not about supporters.
since when you have friends and not supporters?
Do you consider the money you get from the Lebanese lottery, bingo, Cheka cement company and the from the fake invoices in the ministry of health as money from friends?

Dear Mr. Suleiman Franjieh
what you said today about Samir Geagea is not true. Geagea proved to be a prominent Maronite politician and one of the important Lebanese leaders in the history of Lebanon. Now that you are using and abusing the name of "al-Marada", I would like to remind you when "al-Marada" were founded in Antelias (Beirut), your family was still not in Lebanon at that time. Now that you are using the name of Patriarch Doueihi, I would like to remind that your family did not exist during the days of the Doueihi and you came to our area a long time after the death of the Patriarch and you do not have anything in common with the Doueihi.
You have to know that you and the demagogue Aoun caused the death and the immigration of a larger number of Christians than what the famine during the first world war did in Lebanon.  you know and Omar Karami knows and at the same time all the free people around the world know that the Syrian President Hafez Assad took the decision to kill Rashid Karami and Danny Chamoon. this decision was executed by the Syrian intelligence with the help of their agents in Lebanon.
I would like you to know that the patriotism of the Lebanese Forces and their belief in Lebanon was the shield that helped to protect Lebanon and the Christian area from falling under the control of the axis of Evil (Iran, Syria, Hezbollah) when they used the demagogue Aoun as a political cover.

Mr Berri, I would like you to know that I'm coming from a generation who had a dream to see people like Nabih Berri, Ali Al-khalil, Abedilmajid Alrafeih, Yacoub Sarraf, Hassan Alrifaeh, Habib Sadek, Ahmad Sweid, Mohsen Ibrahim, Albert Mansour and Samir Franjieh as members of the Lebanese Parliament. It was a dream for our generation to see these people in the parliment working on new legislative laws that can help to build a better future for generations to come. Mr. Berri, what you are doing now will not be forgiven by the new generations especially that there are thousands of Lebanese people using the web to spread the news around the Globe.

Dear Bishop Matar, I read in the newspapers that you met previously with demagogue Michel Aoun. I also read that you met again today with the axis of evil agents Aoun and Suleiman Franjieh. Dear Bishop, I would like to tell you that the Syrian regime sent previously Mr. Jean Obeid to meet Patriarch Sfeir. Mr. Obeid used to pass the message to the Syrian regime about the Patriarch point of view. The Syrian regime found that Patriarch Sfeir is a true Lebanese patriotic and loves Lebanon. This does not help to serve the Syrian interests in Lebanon and they ordered their agents Aoun and Suleiman Franjieh to start a campaign against the Patriarch in order to put him in a bad situation and get him to resign. What you have to know dear bishop is that the axis of evil strategy in Lebanon will not change unless the Iranian regime changes. Aoun and Franjieh are only the messengers and all what they say is coming from the Syrian regime who knows already from Mr. Jean Obeid the Patriarch point of view. all the countries who believe in freedom and democracy know that the axis of evil set recently a financial budget to buy the conscious of some Maronite leaders who will have to request from the Patriarch to resign and retire. the Axis of evil has plenty of financial resources that can be used to buy people conscious. for the axis of evil, the decision comes from Iran who asks Syria to order their agents in Lebanon to do what is needed. in another word, talking to the agents Aoun and Franjieh does not have any value. Dear bishop, the axis of evil plan is to eliminate Lebanon and it is required from all the patriotic leaders and people to work together as a team and protect Lebanon from the storm when it comes.

you know that you are not convinced but you are supposed to say what you said. if you think that the Shiite-Sunni battle will happen, you should also know that the Sunni are not afraid and 20 millions Sunni will come to Lebanon to fight this war. If you think that the Shiite-Christian battle will Happen, I can assure you as a Lebanese Christian living abroad that there are 2 millions Christians from around the world will come and protect Lebanon.

Dear all, Neither the new generation in Lebanon, nor anyone who believes in freedom will forget about Rafik Hariri. There is no doubt that Rafik Hariri is one of the pillars in the independence in Lebanon. He died for his country and for democracy. All Lebanese around the world are grateful for Rafik Hariri who is one of the Heroes who died for freedom and democracy. During the Syrian occupation, the Lebanese government signed a contract with "Hairri institution" allowing this institution to create an artificial island in the sea facing the Normandy Hotel in Beirut. The Lebanese Council of State (Conceil d'Etat) has to terminate this contract between "Hariri institution" and the Lebanese government as it happened during the Syrian occupation and does not represent what Hariri believes in. During the Syrian occupation also, the Ex-minister Suleiman Franjieh used his influence to award a contract of the Lebanese Lottery to one of his supporters. this supporter is used as a cover because the main share of profits is going to Mr. Suleiman Franjieh. The Lebanese council of State has to terminate this contract as there is no country that awards such contract for seven years and without any bidding process. The council has to confirm that the government is getting the returns.  At the same time, the Council has to confirm that the holder of the contract is paying all the Taxes due. This is the responsibility of the Council of State.

to all Lebanese patriots, Iran is proposing to the western (G7) countries and to Israel a deal in which Iran is willing to do anything for these countries if they accept Iran to be the military force of the middle east.As an example, Iran is offering to Israel in this deal the Golan heights, "Jabal Al-cheik" and the water of Litany river, any parts of south Lebanon in addition to creating permanent Palestinian settlements in Lebanon and Syria. In return, the Iranian would like Hezbollah to be in power in Lebanon and Hezbollah's army to replace the Lebanese army.Based on my readings, I'm confident that the western countries who believe in freedom and democracy will not accept this deal.In any case, let's assume that the countries who believe in freedom and democracy accepted this deal even if I'm quite sure it will not happen. The plan of the axis of evil in Lebanon is the following if this deal goes through: they will not accept Mr. Michel Aoun to become president in Lebanon because of all the reports they get from psychologists about his personality. they know that he is a demagogue and can not be trusted. at the same time the axis of evil is controlling most of the members of parliament belonging to Aoun's political party either by the mean of money or by promising a certain political power. they will get to power a president who will persecute, kill and detain in prison the patriotic leaders in Lebanon. their presidential candidate is Mr. Suleiman Franjieh, but according to my readings, President Bashar Assad will not do with Mr. Suleiman Franjieh the same mistake when he appointed him the minister of interior before the Assassination of Prime minister Rafik Hariri.

Dear all, From time to time, we see the little agents of the Axis of Evil in Lebanon, Talal Ersalan, Emile Emile Lahoud & Suleiman Franjieh informing us that they will use Hezbollah's weapons to destroy Lebanon. This is all done for the purpose of going back to power and to go back to the corruption in the government sector. We all have witnessed the corruption when they were still in power and how much money they made from the public sector, from the Lebanese Casino, lottery and bingo, from Chekka Cement company and by controlling also the energy sector. In order for these agents to prove their good intentions with the Shiite sect in Lebanon, and instead of using Hezbollah's weapons and the children of Shiite to destroy Lebanon, why they don't transfer the money they deposited in European banks to Lebanon and help the Shiite children? Why they do not ask their leader, the demagogue Michel Aoun, to transfer also his money from the European banks to Lebanon for the same cause?

Re: From Elias Bejjani/My new Editorial/for publication
Dear Elias Beijani,
Great thanks. I published this. There are many rumors and theories (it was a work accident). I know that Daily Star also thinks that Syria killed him because they are tired of him. But they are not tired of living and Mughniyeh was Iran's property. Bashar is in so deep with the Mullahs by now that he can't get out. Also Bashar and family are not such big altruists. They have a lot of useless and dangerous terrorists around that they don't kill. Nazis don't kill their attack dogs. Iran will investigate. Unlike the UN, if there is something to find they will find it. They don't worry about laws against torture and so on. Assad knows this. If he whacked Mughniyeh, he will have health problems. Big health problems. The car bomb method, "according to foreign sources" has been used by the Mossad in the past.Of course Israel denies any knowledge, but Meir Dagan, head of the Mossad will probably get his term renewed for another year according to Israel TV. Also when Ehud Barak got back from Turkey he was a in a very good mood, grabbed the megaphone in the airplane and congratulated everyone on landing in Israel. Maybe it doesn't mean anything, right? Who knows who killed this guy, but why give Syria the credit? Claim the credit for your group. FBI offers $ 25 million reward.

Subject: Few mercenaries in Zgharta
Date: Tue, 12 Feb/08

To the few mercenaries in Zgharta, I got information that the Syrian agent in zgharta is recruiting mercenaries in his preparation for an armed conflict.
To these mercenaries, I would like to say that taking part in an armed conflict in Lebanon with the desire to gain $500 to $600 each month and not knowing the consequences of your actions is a big crime. Even if you think that you are strong enough to kill more people from the other party, still a lot of you will be killed. did you ask yourself what will happen to your wife, children and parents after your death? did the Syrian agent in zgharta who is recruiting you guarantee for you that he will look after your family after your death? are you sure that this agent will not die or go to prison? I would like to ask you before you get involved with this agent in his war against the patriotic people in Lebanon and before your put your family in a humiliating situation, to visit the houses of his followers (who will not fight) the few people who will benefit from your death and see in what luxury they live. if you are still convinced that you have to take the job of the mercenary, I would like to tell you that the war will most likely be similar to the war in Iraq where your family along with the families of the other party will suffer and no one will be safe. I hope you take my advice into consideration and think well before you accept to fight for the desire to gain few dollars.

Mr. Fahad, I read in the newspapers the prosecution against the Lebanese army officers and soldiers. All the Lebanese people in and outside the country know the truth about what is going on in Lebanon. We understand your situation and that you have either children or parents to look after in a country where the axis of evil (Iran-Syria-Hezbollah) is planning to destroy. All the Lebanese people understand your situation and it is not easy to say your opinion in a country where axis of evil kill the innocent people. I would like to remind you that in the past, the axis of evil killed the United States ambassador in Lebanon who had children and parents to care about but he was not afraid of the axis of evil. We all know and you also know that axis of evil and their militias destroyed the American embassy in the past and all the innocent employees in the embassy have also children and parents like you. We all know and you also know that axis of evil and their militias destroyed the US Marines building in Lebanon and all these soldiers who died have children and parents like you. It was much more appropriate for you to prosecute Hassan Nasrallah and his militia, as they are behind the recent problems in Lebanon, than to present a case against the Lebanese soldiers who are trying to protect their country. My respect to all these soldiers you prosecuted as they are baring much more than what they can handle.  you know that they are all innocent same as you are. it is much more appropriate in this case for you to resign.

Subject: Destroy Lebanon but avoid Sunni and Shiia confrontation
Date: Mon, 4 Feb 2008

Dear All, Iran is ordering Syria and Hezbollah not to create any confrontation between Sunni and shiia in Lebanon as this will produce hostility toward Iran in all Sunni countries from Asia to Beirut. Iran is telling Hezbollah to either take over the power in Lebanon or destroy the country. Now Hezbollah is trying to go into a confrontation with the Christians in order to destroy the army and the country because they it not allowed to fight the Sunni (as Iran suggested). Hezbollah's plan is the following: What happened last Sunday is that Hezbollah sacrificed few children members of the Shiite community in order to accuse the army and the Christians of their killing. once they go into any fight with the Christian community, Hezbollah and Syria will ask their Christian allies Michel Aoun and Suleiman Franjieh to kill people in the Sunni community. this will give a reason for Hezbollah to use the instinct of the Sunni community and get them to cooperate in order to form a military alliance to protect the Muslims in Lebanon. If the plan works for Hezbollah and confrontations between Muslims and Christians escalates, the next step would be to kill the Christian patriotic leaders and at the same time kill the Sunni patriotic leaders using Michel aoun and Suleiman franjieh as a cover. Michel Aoun and Suleiman Franjieh are aware of these plans and started to help already.

Dear All, After reading in the newspapers that Iran is stealing the Iraqi oil and using the help of the shiite in Iraq who belong to the axis of evil, I have a feeling that Kuwait is in danger. Iran will most likely try to create problems and destabilize the state of Kuwait in order to steal the Kuwaiti oil, especially that oil is located on the borders between Iraq and Kuwait where there are a lot of Shiite who are Iran's allies. These Shiite were supported financially and had military training in Iran at the time when Saddam Hussein was still in power. I'm worried about Kuwait's future. by the way the axis of evil agent in Lebanon Suleiman Franjieh is telling us that he will open offices for his political party in all the Christian areas. these locations will be actually for the axis of evil under the name of "El-Marada" movement who will serve as a cover. you will see Hezbollah and Syrian militants using these locations. Hopefully the people in the Christians areas are aware of these plans and they should not rent out any place to El-Marada movement.

Subject: Qatar and syria
Date: February 01/08

Dear All, some people are wondering what is the reason the prince of Quatar is serving the Syrian interests regardless if they are fair or not. The story is very simple and it is about returning favors. The current ruler, prince of Qatar seized the power in Qatar when his father was out on a visit to Europe. The Father (previous ruler of Qatar) planned to return to power again. Accompanied by one of his top assistants, he visited some Arab rulers and tried to get some support. As usual, The Syrians regime tried to sell the father prince and notified the current prince of the plan. At the same time they promised the father to help. the Syrian played a dirty role by setting up a plot to deliver the father's top assistant to the current Quatar authorities. they called the previous prince to send his top assistant to Syria in order to discuss a plan to help. Once the top assistant was in Syria, they convinced him to visit Lebanon. In Lebanon, the previous president Lahoud delivered the assistant to the Qatar authorities.

To all Lebanese Patriots and Media,
Now that the foreign ministers of the Arab league are going to meet in Cairo this Sunday to discuss the Lebanese issues, we hope they take the decision of sending Turkish, Jordanian and Egyptian armed forces to Lebanon in order to protect the Lebanese people from the terrorism of the Axis of evil and his allies. we want these forces to protect the democracy in Lebanon and facilitate for a Lebanese president to be elected (General Michel Suleiman) by the majority. If for any reason the axis of evil (Iran, Syria and Hezbollah) is going to resume the killing of the patriotic leaders and block the elections, we hope that Turkey and Jordan would allow the smuggling of weapons through their borders to Syria so the Syrian people can confront the Syrian terrorist regime and knock him down.

Dear Patriots: The Axis of Evil (Syria, Iran and Hezbollah) is behind Tuesday's explosion in Beirut. The Axis of Evil planned and Hezbollah executed . The Terrorist Sheik Hassan Nasrallah asked M.P, Michel Aoun a week ago to attack the Americans in order to cover what his terrorist organization (Hezbollah) wants do. Due to the fact that Nasrallah was not brought to court in the 80's after his terrorist attacks on the USA Marines and American Embassy in Beirut, He is now deluding himself that he can hit the Americans again and again anytime he likes. I can assure you that this time Nasrallah will be brought to justice. Meanwhile the Demagogue and derailed Michel Aoun will ultimately face the same fate of General Boulanger , who too was a demagogue like Aoun. Boulanger finished up (by the end of the 19th century), exiled to Belgium where he died

To all Lebanese patriots: It will be a long way before the Syrian regime stops the evil plans in Lebanon. Please be aware of the new plan. Now that Mr. Michel Aoun is having problems in getting the Christians to support him, the Syrian regime is asking Mr. Karim Bakradoni to get involved and help Aoun. The Syrians know that Mr. Bakradoni is a smart and experienced politician who can help Aoun. you will most likely see Mr. Bakradoni visiting Bkerki in the next few days and giving rhetorical speeches about the unity of the Maronites, the Leadership of the country and the salvation of the Christians in Lebanon. He will try to play on the feelings and instincts of the Maronites. We would like to ask Mr. Bakradoni to tell us if Mother Teresa came to him in his dreams and asked him to come for help or it was the Syrian regime asking him to support Aoun. We appreciate if Mr. bakradoni would focus his efforts onuniting the Armenians in Lebanon and leave the Maronites in peace.

If someone convinced you that you will win this war, and actually you can't, the only result would be to open the door again for the thieves of Chekka, Lottery, Hhealth ministry to go back to the institutions and increase their wealth. as for you, you will stay in the same situation of poverty as it happened in the past when they amassed their wealth. If you lose this war, the result for you would be catastrophic because you will lose your loved ones. As for these thieves ,who used you in the past to make money, will not be affected. they are not in need anymore for Issam Fares and Gilbert Shagouri's help.

Tue, 8 Jan 2008

To all the Lebanese patriotic people, The axis of evil (Iran and Syria) is facilitating the process for the Arab ministers in order to elect a Lebanese president. they are facilitating with the intention to buy some time and to show the western world that they have good intention in Lebanon. at the same time, they are asking Hezbollah and their allies not to accept any resolution and to keep things moving in a viscous circle. the whole issue is about time. the axis of evil is counting on the time when the western world will be desperate after seeing that the Lebanese people can not resolve their issues. if this works, the western world will have much more interests to deal with Iran to resolve these issues. that's why it is important for the patriotic leaders in Lebanon to have a plan and work only according to this plan. they should not trust any word the axis of evil is saying. the patriotic leaders should have a clear plan on how to protect the Lebanese people and the government. they can not be a reaction.

Dear Dr Chadi
Thank you for reading the analysis, and your feedback. You mention that I have a party or am affiliated with a party. I would first like to state that I have no affiliation to any party regardless of what you may think. I mentioned Samir Geagea and Aoun as they were the condemned Christian leaders after the end of the Lebanese war and they both returned to the scene after the Syrian withdrawal. As you well know, one went to prison and the other into exile. And just to add, just as Dr Geagea was convicted, so was General Aoun. He was convicted in abstensia. One note that often goes unmentioned, is that the Hariri empire was built long before he was Prime Minister. He was a billionaire before he was a Prime Minister. I do not disagree that Hariri was a party to the Syrian occupation for a long time, yet I can also see from reading the evidence that he had changed his course post 2004. Unfortunately the opposite stands true for General Aoun. He fought the Syrians in 89 after a deal could not be made in Tunisia. The Lebanese Forces, whether led by Gemayel, Abu Nader, Fadi Frem Boustani or Samir Geagea, at one point or another, fought the Syrians for 14 years. Aoun lasted only a few months.
If General Aoun is free of Hizbullah and Syria, then I hope that he will go to parliamentary elections on October 23rd and let democracy take its course. One main point I hope that you understand from my analysis is that my position states Aoun is like all politicians in Lebanon, trying to gain the upper hand and dominate. Don’t all politicians try to do this? I have simply stated what I feel his rationale is, and if that rationale is calculated correctly. As I clearly stated, he has backed a certain course of action. And if that action brings him to power (although I feel it is unlikely) then I will be the first to congratulate him. It is just politics.
I hope that you can understand that to truly know what people’s intensions are, you must remove emotion from your perception. Again, thank you for your feedback. I hope this finalizes our small discussion.

To: lccc@10452lccc.com

Again a very poor analysis. It is a shame that you cant even speak of your achievements but you can find a twist to reality in others who have done a lot more than you. Just few points downtown would remain close until we get what we want. because 45 billions dollars stolen to build a Hariri empire no one has asked that is had affected us and our children and grandchildren economically. General Aoun fought his dreams and his people dreams other dreamt of fighting the Syrians but couldn't. Aoun makes his own decisions and doesn't go in the open like others to get their orders. At least the Iranian have supported Lebanon militarily and financially even to one group that is ok because they are Lebanese. Tell me who sent missiles to Israel in July to bomb our people Christians or Muslims I don't care they are both Lebanese. We all know how the election was done so if you don't want the Syrians you shouldn't have accepted that election. I wonder why you supported Hezbollah in Alay election. Don't you think your party has betrayed that group after you got your votes. For Mr. ga3ga3 don't need to say much except I think he is convicted since when we defend a convicted criminal and killer. The whole world admits the defeat of Israel in that war except your party admits to our defeat. That is a shame. if we don't get a man to hold that country with an arm of steel Lebanon will never become what we dream of. So please stop telling us that Aoun stood by Hezbollah for the sake of presidency and the Iranian Syrian shee3a plan. Really we are sick of that stupid and lame information you give to people. But the Americans and the new middle east will never happen as long as people like us are present.

I cant even believe that Mr. Elias Bejjani can write something like this and have a conscious and believe what he is writing. the first that come to my mind is why would you want to make someone look bad in order to make yourself look better. General Aoun still have his supporters I wonder what supporters you have.
 I am not sure how you go to the past and forget other people past. What I mean is tell me what did Mr. Jumblat do. You are going to say well he regrets what has happened. I tell you it is like two guys living on this earth one with good deed and the other a horrible life and the horrible guy two days before his death he repent and ask for forgiveness. Does that make the two guys equal. And I am sure you know lots of what has happened in Lebanon and no one is clean and pure. I was in Lebanon during that war and the USA sold us to the Syrians in order to get the help in Iraq.
I would never say the Syrians didn't damage our people and our country. But if General Aoun states we have to make decent communication between Lebanon and Syria for economical and political and geographical reasons he is a traitor. But when MP Boutrous Harb states the same thing he is patriotic. And please don't blind people with wrong information who supports general Aoun. Look at the US history supporting bin laden and than hunting him down supporting Saddam Hussein in Iraqi Iranian war and than killing him. selling us to the Syrians and now against the Syrians. how many times do we have to do the same mistake. maybe the Iranian have sent Lebanon military support to defend Lebanon against the Israelis. I think that is more noble than Mr. Hariri stating on TV that the US has supported us during the July war. But I am sure you know who was sending the missiles to Israel if not it was the US through England than Israel.
As you can see in my letter to you I haven't mention religion because I know if you respond u will bring the issue about Hezbollah. But guess what it is a fact that they are over a million Shiitesa in Lebanon and they will always exist like the Sunni and Druze and Christians. But I guess your party has no problem dealing with Muslim Sunni but General is forbidden of dealing with Muslim shee3a. The people who dealt with Syria are the people who stole the country during their presence including Hariri and what he has done in Solidere and they are the people who are in the current government. And now they want to be puppets to the US government so they can stay in power and steel more. Have some reason and conscious in what you write.
Thank you

Dear Mr Bejjani,
I have so much respect for you and your work. I am not a Michel Aoun fan and never was. I have always been a supporter of the Lebanese Forces and for Dr Geagea. In the past during the staying of General Aoun in Paris , I used to visit your website on a daily basis, to get the latest news and to listen to your audio comments and read your written articles. I still do with the same enthusiasm. I would like to let you know that I do support your stand and your view vis-à-vis the Lebanese politics and mainly the Christian and Maronite issues.
Dear Mr. Bejjani,
For the record and for the history and for God, I expect you one day to write a couple of lines about Samir Geagea. I know you do not agree with everything he does or with his history; and that is OK. You know that as Christians, we do not have to agree on everything. We are not a one party or a one doctrine sect. But we have to agree on the principles for which our fathers and grandfathers lived and died. And that, by the way, is our issue and yours, with General Aoun and his current position and with everyone who behaves like General Aoun. I expect you, Mr Bejjani, and I am waiting, after all these years, to write a small tribute to Samir Geagea. Not because he is perfect (and no one is). And not because you are a fan of him and I know you are not. But because right now, he is raising the voice and he is speaking what the Christians in Lebanon always spoke and believed in.
And because of that, he has been attacked and butchered by all the puppet politicians on the Syrian side. As I have known you a fair writer, I will come to your website everyday, as usual, hoping that one day, I will read a couple of fair lines, giving tribute for the current position of this man and definitely not for his person (cause we do not follow persons, but we approve stands and positions).

Dear Elias,
Where have you been in the last 30 years? your article shows ignorance of Lebanese politics. The lebanese are hostages in their own country. Saniora and all lebanese want peace with everyone, but there is a big gun pointed right in their forehead called Syria. The big gun wants the golan heights back, and will sacrifice lebanon without delay for this cause.
Israel real estate acquisitions has caused the lebanese hundreds of thousands of deaths to date, and threatens more. The palestinians kicked out of israel are in lebanon, armed. Israel imminent conflict with iran will surely bring us more death and destruction. If israel wants peace, sit down and talk to your enemies, mainly syria. Israel cannot have peace+golan at the time. In the mean time, the lebanese suffer. In the next war, maybe israel should attack syria, the root cause of turmoil, instead of flexing muscles over helpless lebanon. let's see if you can fight a real army. Cowards. Maybe israel will get Bush to fight their war with iran, same as iraq. Why not, Americans will do anything to get elected.

Dear: I am not sure how General Aoun by supporting Hezbollah's state and illegal military status have saved Lebanon a civil war. I have been hearing this argument from many young FPM supporters who are not satisfied with my opposition to the General's recent choices. Could you please explain to me this rational? Is it that Hezbollah was planning to take over Lebanon by force and the General stopped its adventure?
Is it that Hezbollah was planning to invade the Christian territories and Aoun convinced its leadership to put this plan on halt?
Is it that Syria was sending its army back to Lebanon and Hezbollah's, FPM alliance made Mr. Assad abandon its plan?
Is it that the Harriri and the Sunnis were going to execute a Muslim Sunni coup, as many young FPM enthusiastic are advocating for?
Really I can't relate to this rational, may be you can dwell on it in a logic approach. I am eager to know. Dear: We can not keep blind and deaf to what is going on in the world. We can not side with Iran, Syria and Hezbollah against the whole world. There is a war gaining on against the so called axis of evil. Unfortunately Hezbollah and who ever supports it's military status is plainly siding with this axis that ultimately will be defeated no matter what. I have no problem with a political Hezbollah status, but not a military one. There is not a one similar model in the whole world where two states, two armies, two entities exist in the same country as the situation in Lebanon is. I really would like to understand how the General prevented such an alleged civil war by supporting Hezbollah and abandoning all the platforms that he had been advocating for since 1988?

Dear Elias,
I will repeat a fact in Lebanon, Hizballa represent 90% if not more of the Shiaa in Lebanon, with all my respect to the Shiite personalities you  stated in your e-mail below, I'm sure you are aware what's their representation and please do not quote what LBC/Geagea or Future/Harirr TV who are trying  to show as if the Shiaa are divided and we all know the rest of the story.Having said that and if you believe in democracy, calling Hizballa a terrorist group is as if you are labelling the whole of the Shiite community in Lebanon as terrorist. This is a serious accusation and could have very serious consequences, this is your perfect recipe for a new civil war. Luckily, we have a leader in Lebanon who understood these facts and took preventive actions, I can't imagine what would the situation be like if this last July war happened with a logic similar to the one you're addressing the situation with. At the end of the day, whether we like Hizballa or not, they are Lebanese as much as you and I are, dividing Lebanon is not an option for us.

Dear: Hezbollah is a terrorist group by all means. So when tagging Hezbollah with this title, this does not mean by any way that the Shiite community is included, Based on your interpretation Mufti Sour Al Sheai Ali Amin is a racist as well as Mufti Sayda Al Sheai and the grand Sheai judge Mohd Al Amin, also Ahmad Al Assad and the Son of Sheik Mohd Shaseddine, Hussien Al Hussaini, Hazem Sagea etc. No my dear Hezbollah is not a race, it is not the Lebanese Shiite community. Hezbollah is an Iranian gung trying to destroy the whole country. It is true Lebanon is for the Lebanese of all denominations, but is Hezbollah who is by force is working to change this formula. You can call me what ever you like, but this does not change the fact that Hezbollah is leading both Lebanon and its own community into destruction, ignorance dictatorship, awkwardness, fanaticism, sectarianism and poverty. Could you explain to me what did Lebanon and the Lebanese win in the last war? Could you give me one country in the whole world that have a militant state inside its state like Lebanon? Truth and facts will prevail and the Lebanese will ultimately recognize who is a racist and who is not.

Dear Elias,
Hating a group in Lebanon who happened to be in its majority Shiite, is what made me come up with my conclusion earlier. Your writings don't help in any way reconcile or unite a much divided Lebanon, on the contrary, you have labelled a whole population as terrorist and this is very dangerous.
Your editorial made me think of South Africa and how racist people were and how intolerable to each other to the point of killing each other. I don't by any chance, like to see this happening or repeating itself in Lebanon, unless you want your own Christian Lebanon, than you are free to write whatever pleases you, and I'm free to call you whatever I feel you represent most. I'm with a free Lebanon where people live equally and at peace with  each other, whether they are Christians, Druze or Muslims.

Dear S: With full respect, You are right and wrong at the same time. You are right that I do not support the General in his new political and not patriotic struggle because he has backed off on every platform he was advocating for from A to Z. Meanwhile you are fully wrong that I have shifted to the puppets side, Hariri and the rest of the orchestra. NO NO dear, never, I am still committed to the same convictions that motivated and shaped my work for the last 20 years. This dual stereotyping in loyalty is not my style. It does not mean by any way that if I oppose the General that I am with his opponents. No again I consider his political pattern since he allied himself with Hezbollah and backed on all his promises that he became like rest of the commercial Lebanese politicians. A typical Lebanese politician and not anymore a patriotic leader. He actually disappointed me in every act he has taken. I hope that I am wrong in my judgment. Dear we have to teach ourselves to be tolerant and encourage civilized and constructive opposition not to be afraid of it. Read my today's Arabic editorial thoroughly and if you are really fair and judge on matters with an open and critical mind it will tell you clearly that I am still what I was with the same longing for genuine sovereignty, freedom and independence.

Hello Mr. Bejjani,
I'm sorry to inform you that I no more wish to hear/read from you. I was visiting Canada this past July and I was very surprised to see your personal writings in the news paper. I first thought they could be mistakes or mere media propaganda but then your LCCC website clearly denoted the change in your patriotic stances. To be honest, I never thought that after all these years whereby you were supporting General Michel Aoun and describing the rest of the politicians as "Syrian Puppets", you have turned back on him and are now supporting the Ex-Syrian Puppets, while accusing our only Patriotic Leader of "3ameleh"...(Shame!!! Shame!!! Shame!!!). I'm not willing to go into lengthy discussion of your recent point of views cause I barely have the time to write you these few lines, but I will suffice with the above mentioned comment and will instead use my time to fight & resist the Hariri-Joumblat-Feb 14 Christians coalition plan to steel our country. In fact, the coming days and the "Great People of Lebanon" will prove you and all those doubting & questioning the popularity of General Michel Aoun that they are absolutely wrong. In all cases, I wish you all the best in your future political career, but at the same time I do not wish to read of your point of views anymore (Please remove me from your mailing list).
 Long Live our Free, Sovereign, & Independent Lebanon
God bless you & Keep you safe.

Subject: Re: [Zaynon-News] New Interview with Grand Shiite Tyr Mufti Ali Amin/LCCC New Postings

Dear Dr. Elias Bejjani,
Thanks so much for you telling messages. Let me sum them up referring to several relatively forgotten points:
1. The current undeclared though not undercurrent race between the Shiite and Sunni jihad campaigns, led by rival and hostile General Manager of each (once they were M. Ez-Zarqawwi [el-marhoom] and H. Nasralla), are financed by Saudi petrodollars, and Iranian ones respectively.
2. In order to crown anew anachronism belonging to the Age of Belief hence replace economic growth, drawing a people back, beyond its conventional standards of living, one is in need of financial support, independent of the public will, such as an income tax. Petrodollars, easy were petrol resources exist, are cheap money to waist.
3. Since Iranian petrodollars arrived in Southern Lebanon they came to replace the infrastructure of farming and shepherding. Poverty stricken suburbs of Beirut were built lavishly, highly. This source of easy money helped Lebanon's economy, increased the amount of disposable income in regions that were traditionally retarded. It could solve economic problems but in return, Lebanon's society succumbed to the Shiite belligerence, that spur the built up of segmental war machinery and concomitantly, a race of reproduction that changes the demography and the future balance of powers.
4. Once Ayatulla Hummaini returned to Iran (1979), he kindled the intra-Muslim race over hegemony and the lead of the Ummah. Rejuvenation of the ancient split posited the Jews (thus far relatively friendly to the Matawle of Southern Lebanon and the Iranian nation), at their traditional scapegoat stance, hence unify all tribal minda around a common cause. Similar to what it was during the days of Muhammad Abdalla.
5. Illogical as it can be for an all-Muslim cause is to combat and win the massive Christian world. Easier hence logical seems to begin with a common denominator that may reunite and hold Shiite and Sunnis together on relating all evil to Israel then conscribe all Muslims to fight against it.
Best regards

Dear M. K, I did not remove any links or pages thing from the LCCC site. Please Check the Arabic Articles section, you will find all links for writers' pages including the General and myself      http://www.10452lccc.com/arabicarticles.htm
In regards to the change in my Lebanese convictions, if you are still reading what I write on weekly basis, I am sure you will notice that I am still following the same political, ethical and national lines that I committed my self to since 1988. It is true that Hezbollah's weapons were not initially General Aoun's responsibility, but they became since the end of his exile years. I can't not relate by any means anymore, relate, comprehend or support the new political platforms that the General is following ...Believe me he is not the same person by any standard...BUT I still respect him and will remain to adore his past. Now even when I criticize him I do it with a very civilized manner and do not even mention his name. Most importantly I did not go anywhere, I did not join any other political group and will never do. WE in the LCCC still as we were and where we were politically, and still fighting peacefully for the same cause, A FREE LEBANON. And a free Lebanon can not rise with militias and cantons. Meanwhile those politicians who advocate for these militias and try to hide behind them for personal gains should not be supported.
Honestly it seems with no doubt that the General and since his return from exile has reincarnated (personified- TAKAMAS) in Jumblat and Jumblat reincarnated in the General political wise. The two men have 100% exchanged roles, stances, approaches and attitudes...

Dear Mr. Elias Bejjani,
I read your column in the Global Politician. Thank you for your solidarity with the Lebanese Armenians from the bottom of my heart . Lebanon's suffering is ours, and I truly believe that all Lebanese share the feelings of Armenians wherever they are. Lebanon for almost a century has been a home for us, and it will continue to be a homeland away from ancestral fatherland. No Armenian, wherever she/he is, can forget the hospitality of the Lebanese people who in our direst moments opened their doors to us, saved us from the brink of death, and treated us like brothers.Lebanon has a unique place both in hearts and minds of Armenians.
Please find attached a copy of an open letter addressed to the Honourable Stephen Harper, Prime Minister of Canada and Honourable Peter MacKay, the Minister of Foreign Affairs.

Who is the traitor, & who is the Patriot?

Date: Mon, 04 Sep 2006
I fully respect everyone’s opinion, and I feel I should give mine. This is called Democracy. A democracy that some opponents of the March 14th
Movement may not understand. Lebanon was under Syrian occupation when the Lebanese people, of all religions, went down to the streets on March 14th and asked loudly for the TRUTH and the END OF OCCUPATION. The people of Lebanon won despite the fact that the Syrian Army and their Moukhabarat were everywhere in Lebanon.
I wonder if something like this is possible in Damascus. For example what would happen to a dozen of people in Damascus if they go in the street
and ask for freedom… I guess their next step will be either the morgue or Mezzeh jail.
It is so frustrating to see the situation in Lebanon now. First lets take a look to an interesting event in Israel. They formed inquiry boards to shed
light on what happened during the war, to see who did and who did not assume their responsibilities, to review the decisions made by their
government and check if those decisions were right to the country.
In Lebanon, we have an armed militia working as a government inside the Lebanese government. It provoked a war it was not prepared for, without asking anyone’s opinion. They left our kids, women, old people and innocent citizens under the mercy of a blood thirsty enemy.
Horrible massacres occurred. 15 years of building and working are all gone; the country is totally destroyed and devastated. The embargo still going on until now because no one can lift it, certainly not those who started the war !
Despite all this, they declared themselves Winners; they congratulated themselves and made a great deal of empty fuss “Tanneh wa Ranneh” for their glory. Moreover they are now threatening all those who do not agree with them. I forgot a detail : Recently their leader said “Oh I am sorry, if we knew that the enemy was to hit back so badly, we wouldn’t have done it”. Choo hal --What a convincing argument.  Hopefully I will live to see in my beloved country Lebanon a legal system, where people like Hizbollah leaders are  made accountable to the people and to all victims of the war. Such people should be brought to justice and trialed for their actions, even though they think they are above the LAW.
We badly need justice and democracy in Lebanon !By the way I am NOT pro Israeli, neither are S. Geagea, F. Seniora or W. Joumblatt. I am terribly hurt and upset with all the murders committed against our kids and civilians. Still, I might be tagged as a traitor or racist or any of the similar rhetoric Arabic pre set names because of my free and honest opinion. It is okay, I will be glad to carry titles already given to many great Lebanese fellows like, for example, Mr. Bejjani.

Shlomo all freedom fighters.
ya khayye bel intishar hall thawra badda thouwar.ana badde dall w law ketro 3layna l a3da, mesh momken fell men arde w haida  lel mabda.
For you who haven't heard these songs, this is how the Christian Lebanese resistance was thinking before 1990, the same resistance that went later and moved the earth upside down to be able to continue the struggle for Lebanon from outside Lebanon, we are all proud of you and supporting the cause to death. but one little thing here: we are fighting outside Lebanon not to see more of our people emigrating out of Lebanon, we are fighting so that we one day can go back and live together with the ones who never left the country in peace and harmony in our beloved cedar land. Today and after many years of struggle inside Lebanon in the darkest times of all when the Syrian baath regime was ruling our guys inside were standing toll when all leaders gave up and made business with the Syrians. Today when all leaders are looking on Hezbollah as a possible allied now or in the future our guys are holding on to the line that we outside can hold, we are taking risks for bullets in doing that, they are taking the bullets with the risk. I know most of you can imagine what situation a person can be in when someone holds on to our line whatever happens, you have all done it before and you are all outside Lebanon now because of that. our guys in Lebanon are not asking us to send them troops or guards or guns or or . all we need to do is to sponsor the work now for a little while until they can come on their feet again and see where the situation will lead. I don't need to remind that we have all promised in the past that money will come and the work must be sponsored so that we can get the best result possible, now we have seen the best result possible but there is no money. I urge you all now to arrange different activities to support the work, and you can choose what organizations to support: the Lebanese International committee for implementing the UNSCR 1559.The Aramaic democratic organization, the world council for the cedar revolution, the world Maronite union, the world Lebanese cultural union the part you like to support). we don't have to take from our pockets more than we can afford, but  arrange urgently some event for this cause, the one and only cause. the alternative is that we will liberate Lebanon for our enemies to enjoy...God bless you all and gives you the wisdom.

 Hello
 I am South African by birth, Lebanese by heritage and Canadian by choice. I came across your website when I saw your letter to Mr Harper in the National  Post praising him for his efforts for helping to evacuating Canadians from Lebanon. However, since then, I believe that despite the fact that you have  these press releases on your site, they are not been found in the mainstream media. Therefore the Canadian public are unaware of the views of the  LCCC. It would be most helpful if the views of the LCCC were more widely publicized. This would also help to dispel a lot of the negative reports that are found in the media.
Thanks again

DEUX CONSEQUENCES :
Pour être basique et terre-à-terre, le déploiement de la FINUL entre le Liban et Israël oblige à deux conclusions d'une évidence élémentaire ; sans pourautant que l'une ou l'autre alternative ne se produise obligatoirement :
1- Sa frontière Nord sécurisée par la FINUL, Israël peut s'en prendre à la Syrie en cas de conflit majeur, spontané ou provoqué ; en relation avec le problème iranien ou sans aucune relation.
2- Les Chrétiens du Liban ont toujours bénéficié - que leur vanité démesurée l'admette ou non - d'une certaine protection israélienne contre toute tentative de génocide. Rappelons que l'occupation syrienne qui avait renversé Michel Aoun avait été autorisée par les Américains et constituait une exception. Mais à présent, il y a la FINUL à la frontière et elle constitue une barrière que l'Etat hébreu ne peut plus franchir pour venir au secours des Chrétiens du Liban s'il prenait l'envie au Hezbollah de se livrer à un massacre en vue de provoquer une autre vague d'insécurité et de déchristianiser encore un peu plus le Liban. Comment, un massacre ? Comme "l'invasion" du 1er juin par exemple et les attaques survenues contre Acharafieh à propos des caricatures danoises. Une série d'attaques violentes qui pousseraient les gens à quitter leurs maisons pour se réfugier plus loin ou partir définitivement, et qui auront pour conséquence VOULUE de plonger le pays dans un marasme économique constant afin d'amplifier le mouvement d'exode. Et ce ne sont pas les "premières amandes vertes du mois d'avril", ni tous les e-mails du monde qui empêcheront ces départs. Pendant la guerre entre Israël et le Hezbollah, la presse a utilisé le terme de "moyens démesurés" pour qualifier les attaques israéliennes, eh bien ! il faut aujourd'hui se rendre à l'évidence et réaliser pleinement aussi que les moyens militaires du Hezbollah sont totalement démesurés par rapport à ceux de toutes les autres communautés libanaises réunies. Je rappelle que 200 000 libanais viennent de quitter le pays ce dernier mois, majoritairement des Chrétiens ; comme d'habitude. J'en appelle donc au réveil de l'Esprit de tous afin de parer à la menace qui pèse aujourd'hui sur le Liban et n'est pas nécessairement celle qu'ils croient. Quelque chose de beaucoup plus sourd, de plus profond se trame. On peut l'occulter pendant un certain temps et faire la politique de l'autruche, jouer sur les cordes sensibles de l'indignation contre les attaques de l'aviation
israélienne, jurer soir et matin contre l'impérialisme américain, et même aller jusqu'à embrasser la main de Hassan Nasrallah, cela n'évitera pas aux Chrétiens du Liban de faire l'objet d'une continuation du plan de "nettoyage ethnique".Amorcé en 1975 par l'agression syro-palestino-islamo-progressiste contre le Liban, ce processus - un moment interrompu par le retrait syrien - vient de recevoir une nouvelle dynamique majeure à la suite de la guerre lancée par le Hezbollah le 12 juillet. Il serait étonnant que les choses s'arrêtent à ce stade. Ces gens poursuivent une stratégie hautement plus sophistiquée que les attitudes infantiles de la majeurepartie des Leaders chrétiens. Ceux qui ont assassiné Bachir Gemayel le 14 septembre 1982 savaient ce qu'ils faisaient.

Stop desecrating the dead
A disturbing practice has been vaunted on Arab TV networks , Arab newspapers , arab tabloids and most recently on the internet : Pictures and newsreel footages of dead children whose bodies riddled with shrapnels , bullets and rubble are held up from the feet by bearded fellows telling the world viewers : In your face . The corpses were brandished in front of reporters and re-transmitted in real time by Al Jazeera TV , Hizbolla’s al Manar TV and other Lebanese and Arab networks . The same pictures were shown again and again to the millions of viewers around the world with no respect whatsoever for any ethical standard or the sanctity of the innocent children who perished in the 33 days Israeli/Hizbolla war . Have there ever been a clean war ? Are we to expect a bed of roses after wars , any war ? Hizbolla’s “jihadists” were caught red handed in some villages of south Lebanon lobbying missiles at Israel’s cities from Lebanese civilian areas then running to take cover in tunnels dug underground .The civilian population, families with their children , were caught in the crossfire and innocent lives were lost in the shelling .In other words Hizbolla fighters were cowardly using mothers , children and their fleeing car convoys as human shields . Israel’s tanks , airplanes and firepower may have bombed indiscriminately , war is a dirty business : you kill before you’re killed , and when your enemy is lobbying missiles at your cities from atop a house or from the basement of an apartment block you bomb the hell out that house or basement . In the military lexicon it is as simple as that .There is no doubt that Israel have committed mistakes but the Arab media and Hizbolla’s propaganda machine made sure that those young and innocent lives were slaughtered twice .
The same ignominous pictures are circulating now on the net in the form of pps. and wmv. files . My e-mail box has been flooded on a daily basis with nauseating images courtesy of Hizbolla & co’s propaganda network . By not letting those young souls rest in peace , Hizbolla and other internet naïve pundits want to make sure the world buys this cheap and appalling propaganda . This must stop . The international community should come up with harsh measures preventing the media and internet users from disseminating such disgraceful and despicable material .
The dead deserve not only a sheet to cover them up respectfully but also harsh measures to be enforced against whoever desecrates them after they die. Zarqawi’s throat slitting videos were banned from the internet , why can’t we impose strict measures on the Arab media to exercise some self discipline or at least to warn the viewers that such pictures and /or film footages might be disturbing . As for the internet users , strict monitoring should be applied and
