A Phone call

In his first post on Gebran Tweini’s assassination, Raja noted that “Now Hassan Nasrallah is not the only prominent Lebanese political figure who has sacrificed his son to the "cause" of Lebanon.”

I don’t think it relevant to compare the two men at this time, but I do believe, and firmly so, both very sincere to the cause that Raja coined. This is why I am touch to read of the most recent exchange between the two.

I am not very fond of Ghassan Tueni's, but it's really sad for a man of his age to bury his third and last living child. He lost his wife very youn, in the 60's and all his children are dead.

Tueni is a peacemaker. Nasrallah is not. We'll see how far this goes.

Remember, Nasrallah paid for so many Hariri banners and flower bouquets at Sahet Shuhada, but his politics are diametrically opposed to Shaheed Rafiq's son and righthand-man.
