I'd like to remind you that Sulaiman Franjieh used to be the Minister of Health. Need I say more? In fact, the only time we came close to an appropriate appointment based on skills was under Mr. Najib Mikati.<BR/><BR/>According to Der Generale we should go back to a completely political system. In fact, he wants to be the sole 'Christian lord' (you can refer to last week's speeches).
