Sarcasm on the national level

It's funny how those selfsame groups that are armed to the teeth are warning of civil war.
It's funny how those selfsame groups that are sectarian to the core are warning of sectarian strife.
It's funny how those that swear loyalty to foreign powers, and are completely dependant on them are calling the rest of the population traitors.
It's funny how those that bolstered their every statement by saying that they are the majority, and who are now the minority, call the rest of the nation 'a handful of protesters'.....

I beg to differ, Messrs. Nasrallah, Berri, Qanso, Oureiji, Frangieh and Andil. You are inciting chaos by shooting at innocent protesters. You are inciting chaos by carrying weapons to face peaceful, democratic protests. You are carrying non-Lebanese flags, pledging allegiance to non-Lebanese leaders, and shooting at your fellow Lebanese. You are mistaken. And -newsflash!- you are the minority. I pray for you sake. I pray that you come to your senses, and shed your chains. I pray that you throw off your allegiance to foreigners and join the rest of the free, independant, and sovereign Lebanese.

The hundreds and hundreds of thousands of patriotic Lebanese who have taken to the streets these past few weeks, waving only Lebanese flags, shouting only national slogans, deserve more than that.

By the way.. I've just seen photos of today's demonstration

I must admit that I did not expect they would be so many..

But how sad to see lebanese people cheering the president(=dictator) of a country like Syria

And how pathetic to see demonstrators with photos of Hariri and supporting the same people who killed him!!!! what a bunch of muppets!!

Hey! You watch what your say about my friend Kermit. Muppets are much better. Of course it probably does have something to do with who's hand is up one's back...

Good luck. May [the higher power of your choice] bless you and keep you safe.
