Some politicians can be decent, but here is the problem, we don't have politicians in Lebanon, we have ex-warlords and corrupt political elite :)

المشكلة ان السياسيين هم من سيطالب بعصيان مدني بحسب ما يتوافق مع مصالحهم، بالتالي اغلبية الشعب اللبناني المنوم مغناطيسياً وطائفياً يستحق "الخصيان" المدني :)

Building a civil - secular state is a non-stop priority, we should be working for that goal whether we are fighting or not, a weak and sectarian state can't fight external invasion, whether the invasion is military (Israel) or political (Saudi, Qatar) or a mix of political and military (Iran, syria , US), the question itself is trying to prioritize between a goal and a duty, which does not seem valid

because in Lebanon what goes up, never comes down :) the Lebanese market is controlled by mafias, usually the government (through the client interest protection unit) monitors the prices closely, in our case the mafias and the big dealers are protected by politicians, they became untouchable, you can also choose to ask this question to Mona Abu Hamza, the tv host who protested the high prices while her husband the billionaire owns the gas and fuel empire called cogico

Ali & Khodor were arrested by an army patrol then moved to military base then to the military police detention center, military investigations and imprisonment of civilians is not acceptable as it is illegal, unconstitutional and contradicts basic human rights, civilians should be prosecuted under civil not military law

دائماً ما تطغى الاغلبية على الأقلية، المشكلة مع حزب الله بالتحديد انه حزب يمزج الدين بالسياسة على نطاق شامل ومن هنا مهما كان نوعية آداءه السياسي، اعجبنا ام لم يعجبنا فهو يستغل العامل الديني ويوظفه سياسياً ثم ان للمقولة تتمة ان راجعتها كلها ستجد \ تجدين ان الوصف دقيق جداً

I can never leave Beirut for good, i belong to this country and i believe in the fair causes that we carry as community mobilizers, I need Beirut as much as it needs me, but a confrontation with the regime is not always in my (or our) favor, sometimes i need some smart tactics so the regime and the pressure does not get into me, this is a golden rule of advocacy, this is a plain tactic of strategic withdrawal for some time, quoting Arnold Schwarzenegger from the movie Terminator 2.. "I'll be back" and hopefully stronger :)

we have so much in common, but this common group can't produce anything as long as some activists insist on involving political parties that have political agendas, if you want to change you do not seek power, you change the system by lobbying against it instead of being part of it, change from within is a fail theory, another problem is ego, a third problem is some activists who are bond to imported ideologies, last problem is the lack of strategic planning, they want to object for the sake of objection instead of building campaigns that actually work and influence others
