Syria-Lebanon-Iran
Aoun toes Syrian line
2007-12-11
Those who have closely monitored statements issued by Lebanese MP Michel Aoun, especially over the past few days about Lebanese Christians, and a statement by his parliamentary bloc will realize he is towing the Syrian-Iranian line that could propel him to the presidential palace.

He will neither look back nor refrain, at any cost, from agreeing with Syria — whom until yesterday he considered his enemy. Overnight he has become a friend of Syria and the latter his master and the master of his March Eight Group — on issues of Lebanon. This signals the birth of the Al-Baath Party — the ruling party of Syria.

Aoun and his group, after getting support from the Syria-Iran alliance wants to divide the people of Lebanon. If Aoun reaches the presidential palace he will do exactly what his predecessor did — take instructions from foreign parties. The majority of the Members of Parliament and the people were unable to do anything after the former president blocked their moves in the government and the Speaker of the Parliament dissolved the Parliament.
