Tell this to Bush: a Lebanese University public opinion
survey reveals that 48% of all Lebanese people are optimistic about the future of their country, while
52% are pessimistic. Also, as far as the most popular leaders are concerned, we are not surprised to learn that there are no national leaders in Lebanon: that each sect has its own favorite sectarian leader: Sa`d Hariri for Sunnis; Hasan Nasrallah for Shi`ites; Jumblat for Druzes; `Awn for Christians. Jumblat and Hariri are quite unpopular among Christians.
