the president appoints a new prime minister and then approves his cabinet! there is nothing to say that a parliament is illegitimate due to a vacant president! stop the lies and manipulation of the constitution. A new president is not subject to a new cabinet or prime minister! You can have parliamentary elections without a president!
if Aoun and the FPM are hated by all christians and Lebanese, then the new parliamentary elections will make him irrelevant through his loss of all current seats!
I am willing to risk democracy yes... without the vote and voice of the people, there is no democracy or executive power or republic... the politicians are thieves!
this cabinet and prime minister is already a "caretaker" cabinet and PM! It remains so until a new president is elected... it will also remain so during the election of a new parliament as it has in previous elections! During the last Parliamentary election, there remained a "caretaker" Pm and Cabinet! What would change?
Barry, Amal and Nabil Berri is not an ally of the fpm. a third of resignations only induce the fall of cabinet... not the parliament! that is why the parties are reluctant to resign as this would leave a huge constitutional and executive hole! It takes more then 50% of parliament to resign for it to be illegal and even that under the ridiculously flawed constitution, doesn't force new elections!.
Phoenix1... when was the last time Aoun travelled to Iran? How many times has Geagea traveled to Saudi Arabia in the past 6 years? Not once has Aoun travelled to Iran in the past 6 years, but Geagea has travelled to Saudi Arabia 5 times in the past 6 years!
I'm not saying Geagea is receiving money or direction from KSA, but if Aoun visited Iran once, during Dr Geagea's 5 visits to KSA, what would the opponents of the fpm be saying?
i am very please that Aoun's FPM and Geagea'a LF have an agreement! Hope its stays this way after Dr Geagea's visit to KSA.
isis kidnapped 46 turks in september 2014... all of them were released! The turkish policy towards ISIS since then is obvious! Now the chickens are coming home to roost! Turkey is either nato and anti Isis or is pro ISIS and anti Kurdish! Can not be both! Turkey must choose between Assad's syria and kurdish independence, or ISIS and al qaida (al nusra) syria! these are the only 2 options!

How many days has Saad Hariri lived in Lebanon compared to his days in Saudi Arabia over the past 45 years? Saad Hariri hasn't spent more than 2 full years in Lebanon in his whole Life!!!!
why is this country so fuc@#@ up? Mafia families and politicians have this country by the throat! Sukleen is just one example! there is enough room in Quarintina to dump this beirut rubbish! let the sukleen HQ and the offices of the sukleen and the Grand Serial be the new dump enforced by the army!
I really like Sheik Sami Gemayel! He seams unrestricted by typical leb politics... Like he is free to speak the truth without the automatic opposition that the fpm have as a result of Aoun. There is a huge problem in Lebanon with mafia controlled companies holding Lebanon hostage! The current political class are either influenced/controlled by these mafia companies or have lost legitimacy in too much of the population to be taken seriously!
what is sectarian about my comment? The mafia companies do not know sectarian boundaries. Money is sectarian and racially blind unlike you and your trolls that think everything is about sunni/shiite. This company Sukleen, is abusing and taking Lebanon and the local municipalities hostage by refusing to pick up the rubbish! why every time their contract is about to end, is there a rubbish crisis?
