		<description><![CDATA[By Mezzo
To cut short the speech of Lebanon&#8217;s Prime Minister, our Prime Minister, before it ends is not innocent. Daher is a confused person. He does not realize how critical these times are for the Lebanese, for us, Christians and Muslims alike. We are not concerned with his continuous irritation over the legal case raised [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was watching LBC on the day after the large turnout of February 14. A very short appearance of Geagea criticizing Nasrallah&#8217;s
monopolistic control over peace and war, there was no analysis over yesterday&#8217;s participations, and suddenly LBC switched to social
affairs. I zapped around and stopped at Future TV as the moving banner was just indicating [...]]]></description>

- The presidential elections will be used as a pretext to put The Lebanese Republic itself at risk. The conspiracy plan is still taking form so it is not too late for the Lebanese to overcome it, recommended Michel.
- There [...]]]></description>

Hizbullah motivation is for the investigations to  move upwards, in one direction, within the army corp, in order to neutralize whoever gave the shooting orders, [...]]]></description>

Given that many out there do not take the time to read these two essential legal documents, we find it appropriate to provide them to our readers, despite the fact that they are both easily found on the Internet.

To say the least, many are mixing the two together which is creating a lot of confusion.

General Michel Aoun slammed March 14 saying they don&#8217;t have a right to be decision makers. He also said that he represents the majority of the Christians and being shut out of the debate for the presidency is isolating the voice of the majority of the Christians. He also criticized the U.S.&#8217;s recent statement [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[By Mezzo
Do we need to read the constitution in order to know what is the required quorum to elect a president for Lebanon? The answer is no. All we need to do is to figure out the routing that would take Lebanon through the hardest possible path and then we extract the answer. Indeed, every [...]]]></description>

As is becoming increasingly common, breaking the constitution is another way for forging the easy way out of facing our country&#8217;s problems. Lebanese Army Commander Michel Suleiman presented himself, upon the recommendation of former Defense Minister Albert Mansour, as a candidate to head a transitional government should Parliament fail to elect a new president.
