Okay I retract my "like" from the book.

It's orientalist BS and its author has actual poor understanding and knowledge in Lebanese politics.

Franjieh was never part of the Gemayil - Chamoun coalition and was always pro Syria.
USA ❤️ Human rights
The Intelligence Directorate, supported by an army force in the Tripoli - Al-Kanais Street, raided a shop selling curtains and paintings and arrested its owner, A.S, where they found a warehouse containing a large quantity of weapons, various ammunition, grenades and explosives.
Traffic control: Reopening of Sayyed Hadi Nasrallah highway - Dahiyeh, and traffic is back to normal.

No Information on why it was closed.
Update: The army closed it while arresting someone from Al Mokdad family.
Why is facebook enforcing a Hanukkah based background for facebook posts for non jews and non Israelis?

I don't remember an "Allahu Akbar" themed background on Eid or a christian based background on Christmas.

Simply unacceptable
On this day a Lebanese hero was assassinated. A hero who truly loved the Lebanese army and who did not stay idle about it's state and decay and who openly stated what it needs in weapons and equipments and did not care about the USA or NATO.

On this day, USA killed a hero.
On 12 December 2007, major general François Al Hajj, who was expected to be the new COS, was assassinated through a VIED in the suburb of Baabda near MOD. Four other people, including his bodyguard, died in the attack.
