It is a good sign to see the youth so interested in politics. But it is important that the youth develop a diversity of thought, and that they do not follow leaders. Leaders are obsolete in the information age. Follow philosophies instead.

Think orthogonally. Develop your own ideas, your critical mind. The March 14 group can be right on certain things while the opposition could be right on other things. Don't take parts. Pick a few things from here and there and make your own political party.

The gunman who shot down 5 was apparently from the opposition. He was being harassed by Future Movement supporters, and they came into his shop and caused problems. He's 55 years old, and has a [...]

every Political Party in Lebanon has foreign supporters - that's what kept the civil war going, and what stopped it all at once - Hizballah's is Iran & Syria, Hariri's is Saudi Arabia and the [...]

all armed clashes are between militias (Hizballah, Hariri, Jumblat, Berri) - the Lebanese Army has not intervened with arms.

Thanks for the update. Don't forget to mention that Hizbollah are a militia in all cases. We hope this is not the beginning of the Islamic Republic of Lebanon.
