What people are actually saying
ليش لبنان دايما بلد الفرص الضايعة كل عهد عميخلص عمنخسر معه فرصة اعادة بناء اذا صحت المفاوضات الامركية الايرانية كله رح يعمل مصلحته ويتركنا مهجرين ومدمرين اقتصاديا روحوا عوقف اطلاق نار ومفاوضات عبر الرئاسة وسلموا للجيش حضنه اضمن وروحوا عنظام لامركزي موسع مزدهر يقدر يرجع النازحين
كنا باللامركزية، رجعنا للفيدرالية، وصرنا بالتقسيم! ليش هالتطوّر؟ لأننا نرى حجم الانقسام الحقيقي في المجتمع اللبناني واستحالة جمع المكونات اللبنانية بتنوّعاتها وتوجّهاتها تحت سقف بلدٍ واحد. #لبنان
Question: Which vision do you believe is the future for #Lebanon ? 🇱🇧💢 1️⃣ A sovereign Lebanese state & one national army 2️⃣ State neutrality & diplomacy 3️⃣ International protection / UN role 4️⃣ Federalism / decentralization
@Maronidd @ManOCatz We need to preserve the borders of modern day Lebanon but change to decentralization or federalism to maintain power and control over what’s left.
@kavkazdelaet @nikicaga Bahrain isn't stable either. The solution for Lebanon would've probably been Swiss-style decentralization, letting those territories go (this is the 21st century, not being able to grow your own food isn't a true concern anymore).
@hahussain This theory might sound great,yet to implement there are 2 possible ways: 1politically:in parliament I doubt this decentralization/division of Leb get enough vote 2Violence:if talks fail,to apply this only violence remains We can’t do either Lebanese never gave Lebano…
