what is this cabinet for? is it for elections or is it for normal affairs?
there is a major difference between the two, and while m8 wants a coalition government(thus normal affairs), m14 want an elections cabinet.
hizbushaitan and fpm are the only ones asking for fair representation in the cabinet according to their legislative size.
I have a question here: do they expect this cabinet to last? why? do they don't want to hold elections? or is it there are some deals they want to pass yet?
hizbushaitan is playing sold in this poker game by participating directly in the Syrian war siding with the regime.
it is obvious that when this regime will fall hizbushaitan will face hell in reprisals for what they are doing.
exactly put :)
as I said in another post:
it seems m8 want to postpone the elections for at least 3 years, otherwise what Salam is saying is right: this cabinet is here to oversee the upcoming elections and manage the economy mainly.
the demands of m8 for fair representation according to their parliamentary size means they expect this cabinet to last for a long period.
For Hezbollah, it is now a matter of survival. They are aware of their declining popularity. A number of Hezbollah fighters have refused to go to Syria and some have actually defected. More Shiites are converting to Sunni Islam in order to pursue a normal life outside Lebanon. Getting a working visa for Gulf countries is becoming impossible if you’re a Lebanese Shiite, so the sectarian identity that Hezbollah highlighted in their rhetoric for the past two decades is now being sacrificed by many young Shiites for the sake of financial security. Life seems to beat all ideologies and identities
The problem is that the longer the fight goes on, the more sectarian it will become. Hezbollah will find itself fighting in a territory that is gradually changing to a Sunni Islamic space. This will not spare Lebanon, as a sectarian war over the Umma will only mean that the Shiites in the whole region will become victims of another divine war, this time a Sunni one.
