Whiners And Appeasers

Lebanese frustration Kuwaiti-Style.

Why is the Syrian regime suddenly the victim? What’s wrong with the European and Arab public opinion?

Russia just announced that it is against imposing sanctions against Syria (and of all places, it did so in Israel). Fine, but did it have to make its position public? now we can’t even use the threat of sanctions. Why would the Syrians now cooperate? What would force them to stop shooting our engineers who set out to demarcate our common borders?

People outside of Lebanon are speaking of the presumption of innocence. Everyone is speaking of a politicized report, everyone is reducing this to a silly conspiracy being cooked up in the pentagon by Neoconservatives.

Everyone outside of Lebanon, that is.

We, inside of Lebanon, all know deep inside that it’s the Syrians. We all know how they still scare our politicians and our journalists, we all know how they bomb our neighborhoods, we all know the scale of the contempt they have for our country.

But why do you care?

We can rot in hell as far as Putin and Joshua Landis are concerned..
