The one Lebanese politician who has been most candid and most truthful is Usamah Sa`d of Sidon. This secular, leftist, Arab nationalist member of parliament has been quite honest with the Lebanese people about the nature of the conspiracy against Lebanon and its local allies. Hizbullah, typically playing behind too much Lebanese dissimulation, refuses to criticize any political leader or party in Lebanon, and has not even criticized Saudi Arabia or any other Arab government. The brave Usamah Sa`d said the obvious: that there are personalities in Lebanon who are part of this Israeli/Arab conspiracy against Lebanon.
