Jumblat, in his press conference, lectures Lebanese Shi`ites on how they should think. I mean, I know that he reads NYRB and even finds documents on the internet, but that is quite dumb. Does he think that he really can influence Shi`ites in Lebanon? And at the end of his press conference, he hailed one Lebanese Shi`ite for being the "right kind of Shi`ite"--Muna Fayyad who wrote that article in An-Nahar. It is funny when Hariri Inc and its tools really think that they can shape the Shi`ites of Lebanon, and then they can run Lebanon. Jumblat has as much chances of influencing Lebanese Shi`ites as I have in influencing Southern Baptists. I was amused that this House of Saud tool (formerly tool of Syrian mukhabarat) would refer to the Saudi owner of the pro-Jumblat, site, Elaph, as "a suspicious man."
