Geagea: Aoun Became Syria's Defense Lawyer
Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea on Saturday said Free Patriotic Movement leader Gen. Michel Aoun has become Syria's defense lawyer, stressing that the LF had "paid dearly for the protection of Lebanon and the Christians."
"Strange that Aoun wants to turn the page on the past with Syria, while not only does he insist on opening pages of the Lebanese Forces' past, but also write what suits him and bypassing all the facts," Geagea said in a radio interview.

"How does Aoun allow himself to say that the Lebanese Forces was the one to bombard Baabda and Yarze October 13 1990?" Geagea asked in reference to Aoun's ousting from Lebanon by Syrian forces.

Geagea said Aoun has resorted to accusations against the LF for election purposes, "particularly since the LF along with its allies in the Phalange party, the (National) Liberal Party and the National Bloc as well as other independent March 14 figures pose the real election threat to him."
