Walid Jumblat. Today, the "progressive" and "socialist" Walid Jumblat addressed the Armenian issue in Lebanon. In his weekly "comment"--always clearly dictated by phone and not even edited--in the party's mouthpiece, Al-Anba', he called on Armenians in Lebanon "to take into consideration the right of the Lebanese people to self-determination." So Jumblat now officially excludes the Armenians in Lebanon from the category of the Lebanese people.
