....so we apparently have a government, it only took five months.
And the result is (drumroll) : nothing changed.
Same old faces, same old names.
Why did we bother to have elections at all?
Worst of all.....who cares anymore.

P.S. If you are a female Lebanese, don't bother trying. Stick to blowing up your lips and breasts for male entertainment, don't bother your pretty little head about the important stuff, just leave it to our glorious men. Even the Gulf Arab states now have more females in their governments than the supposedly enlightened Lebanese.

Nobel What?
Those of you who read this blog during the US elections already know how much I like Barak Obama, but even I thought: Nobel Peace Prize? Really? For what ?

What I love about Being Lebanese...
Last Christmas I had delicious turkey at a Christmas Dinner thrown by Muslims, and today one of my Christian friends invited me over for Iftar at her house.
It's at times like these I remember why I love being Lebanese.

Happy Happy Happy
The best things about election day:
M14 won (Yay)
No major security incidents.
Blue thumbs.
President Carter (love him).
The way Ziad Baroud's hair kept getting crazier and crazier as the day went on :)
Unbelievably, we truely are a democracy.
Well done Lebanon.

Elections Tomorrow
Dear Lebanese people,
Go elect tomorrow, but please, whatever happens, whomever wins, keep it calm and civilized. Free and democratic elections mean that sometimes, you have to live with a result you don't want.
If M14 wins, Hooray,
If M8 wins, lets see what they can do. If Lebanon suddenly becomes a bastion of uncorrupted well organized, well run government as they claim they can make it, then fine by me.
If they fall flat on their faces, realise that things are easier said then done, and that they can't shift the blame onto anyone else anymore; if they start the inevitable in-fighting because they finally realise (what we have known all along) that idealistically they in fact agree on nothing, and that having Iran run the show maybe isn't all that great, then well, (and this is directed at the Aounis in particular): we told you so.
Whatever happens , we'll get through it as we've gotten through other crap before. Just as long as nobody lifts a gun in another person's face.

Der Spiegel Article
....well I read it, and as much as I hate Hizballah and Hasan the Persian Slave, I still find it hard to believe this. So I'm going to withhold judgement until the tribunal (or what's left of it) comes out with something official one way or the other.
For Lebanon's sake, I really hope that this doesn't turn out to be true, because if it is, the shit is going to hit the fan BIGTIME in our dear little country.
