Walid Bek Jumblatt has surprised Lebanon and the whole world with his decision to withdraw from the 14th March coalition whom he formed along with other Lebanese forces and parties that stood against Syria and were backed by the U.S and its allies in the region, the same coalition that included past enemies whom he fought and killed their people in the civil war.
But is it a real surprise for the Lebanese and the world !!?? No it is not , this is a typical Walid Bek , the man for all seasons !!! If the rest of the 14th of March coalition believed that he will be loyal for them forever then they are idiots with my all respect.
For sure this sudden withdrawal will weaken the 14th of March which I am sure is currently trying to recalculate its positions in the Lebanese arena.
Starting from the Lebanese Parliament , the 14th of March coalition after the withdrawal is no longer the majority which before the withdrawal had 71 chairs from 128 in the Parliament where as the opposition has 57 chairs , now Jumblatt is out from the 14th of March along with his party members who have 11 chairs in the parliament , the 14th of March now has got 60 chairs and they are no longer the majority; the majority in the Lebanese must have more than half of the chairs !!
And this is just the start ,already the man is slamming his allies in the past couple of years starting with their electoral platform and the fact that he is returning back to the Arab nationalism , Palestine and Socialism not to mention his remorse for the Neo-con U.S back up to the 14th of March
There is no coulds in this matter , it will weaken the 14th of March insh Allah more and more and they know it , I wonder how our official media will cover this great change
By the way I do not think that this was a surprising change ,there were some indicators whether from the man himself or Hezbollah. Of course Jumblatt made it clear that he won’t join the opposition still there is no real political independence in Lebanon , it is either with us or against us.
By the way will Hezbollah forget the charges they accused Walid Bek of from couple of months ago !!??
I wonder how he has escaped assassination up until now. Dude is a snake and a crook to boot.
ReplyDeleteme too , do u know that when Al Hariri was assassinated , those who heard and saw the blast thought it is him
