The feud is ongoing – I love Bech’s post (More detailed than mine)… And thanks Moussa for referring to my blog for the “retaliation” – I did not put it as my own political statement, but simply as a way of saying how fast the anti-propaganda happens in Lebanon.

“Charles Malik : a so-called human right activist who is actually a horrible anti-Muslim demagogue”——>

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Malik

Of course, very often stuff posted on wikipedia is just bullshit, so although it is known that the ’so-called human right activits’ has participated in the framing and the content of the declaration of human rights, can you please elaborate on the part where he is “a horrible anti-Muslim demagogue” instead of distributing judgments without any documentation ? I would be very interested

Yes I noticed it and they are not everywhere along the road to the south. They are very strategically located at the level of Christian areas like Damour. It is just electoral targeting.

Another interesting detail about this LF campaign : those huge posters are also dispatched all along the South “autostrad”, traditionally devoted to Hizbullah’s ones. This monopoly on political advertisement has been for a time challenged by pro-Hariri supporters (you are on your way to Saida, of course), but to my knowledge, it’s the firt attempt by the LF. Good luck, guys…

I was reading a book by a French traveller to Lebanon in the 1800’s and his conclusion was:

Au Liban il n’y a pas de verites, il n’y a que des versions.

The whole official and accepted history of the country (all sects included), is a load of crap. And we like it.
