6ale2 bil Talatah!!!

So, "situation in Lebanon has reached a divorce status" said Nabih Berri from Iran. He added that "I tried to find a remedy to the problem, but alas, we reached a point where divorce was inevitable."

LOL! Very funny! What a metaphor Berri came out with!

So true... the conflicting parties are just like two conflicting partners living under the same roof, until their life together becomes unbearable and they end up going to the last resort which is divorce. However, in the second case one of the two partners will leave the place for the other, but in Lebanon this solution will never work. It's impossible for one party to leave the country for the other, it's either one of them kill the other (and his is our fear), or they just y7o6o 3a3lon bi rason and go back to the dialogue table, and try to come up with a solution to this crisis that we've been suffering from since Al Hariri's assasination.

Now that they have hit a dead end; and the Shiites ministers resigned from the government as a first step, which will be followed by other steps including street protests and God knows what else, the other side of course threatened to go to the streets as well, which is likely to end up with violent confrontations.

Confrontations have already started to take place not only in the streets, but inside houses where a brother supports the red team, while his brother supports the yellow, the green, or maybe the orange one ;) . and the wheel keeps on turning, w Allah yostor ...

This disgusting situation brings to mind Fairouz's song:

يا بني أمي - جبران خليل جبران

في ظلام الليل أناديكم هل تسمعون

مات أهلي و عيونهم محدقة في سواد السماء

في ظلام الليل أناديكم هل تسمعون

مات أهلي و غمرت تلال بلادي الدموع و الدماء

الويل لأمة كثرت فيها طوائفها و قل فيها الدين ... الويل لها

الويل لأمة تلبس مما لا تنسج و تشرب مما لا تعصر ... الويل لها

و الويل لأمة مقسمة و كل ينادي انا أمة ... الويل لها

يا بني أمي الحق الحق أقول لكم

وطني يأبى السلاسل وطني أرض السنابل

وطني الفلاحون وطني الكرامون

وطني البناؤون و الغار و الزيتون

وطني هو الأنسان وطني لبنان

A great expresive poem by Khalil Gibran.
