I have never seen a Lebanese "politician"--if that what we can call mini-Hariri (can you imagine his status if he were say to lose his wealth? How many supporters would he retain?)--as blatantly sectarian as mini-Hariri is since the days of Pierre Gemayyel (the grandfather). Today, he said that "we will not allow Fath Al-Islam to yuda`di` (to weaken, although I am sure that he used that word without knowing its meaning) Ahl As-Sunnah in North Lebanon." So he is saying that this (predominantly Saudi group in membership at least), accused of terrorist bombings in Lebanon, is bad only insofar as it may "weaken" Sunnis in Lebanon?
