I am really happy that An-Nahar is no more a "good" or "effective" newspaper. I am really glad that it is now a blatantly racist and sectarian (Christian) newspaper. You have to thank Jubran Tuwayni for that. He removed the camouflage that his father had put in place. Here, Pierre `Atallah--who was accused of Israeli links by the previous government--reports about a new fascistic movement, Harakat Lubnanuna, headed by Sami Amin Gemayyel. My favorite part was line toward the end that there are "Shi`ites, Sunnis, and Druzes" supporting the movement. This is like saying that the KKK succeeded in attracting African-American supporters.
