* Is what happening in the Arab world, a revolution or a plot?
You may say that revolutions are running on, so are plots in the same time.
When Arabs felt themselves from one side out of the course of international history and outside international geography too, they felt themselves in a pitiful situation late from what is going around other nations, like rapid progress, global development, unity, acquiring civil and individual and equal rights, also personal and collective freedom and thought that they have to change the situation.
And what is called in the Arabian area a plot, isn’t sometimes but interests related to great and active nations.
We may remark, as observers, that an economic competence between two great countries, exporting arms and different products including technology, may turn inside two growing countries importing the arms and products, to a conflict between two sects or political affiliations, and this happened several times even in one of the most advanced Arabic countries as Lebanon.
So how could we be convinced that a media is capable of catalyzing a confrontation, or a group of countries is able to align an opposition against a regime, if the society is mature and immune? Or if it acquired its full rights, or is capable at a minimum to identify its political and national aims?
Can anyone create an instable situation in Britain for example or France or Japan?
This retarded position where Arabic societies stand, pushed different generations and especially young to seek for change and realize their legal ambitions, outside the armed conflict or chaos.
And if we try to go deeper in the subject, we may say:
The political system prevailing in the Arabic world since the independence of its states; is in its origins a European one, but it hadn’t been used according to European standards and norms.
The role and authority of legal, executive and judicial institutions has been disabled and replaced by the influence of the tribe or family or individuals. While that system as a democratic one, applies on the mechanism of these institutions, so the Arabic regimes wrongly using it, exploded after a few decades, formally and inner their contents.
The uprising depending in its majority on the Sunni sect, across the Arab world, is evidence on the exactitude of my sayings.
Because the Sunni sect did not contribute in any opposition or protest to any system or regime and did not plan any revolution, since it was formed, under the Omayyad dynasty.
It had always been in the powerful position, sharing the authorities, the privileges, and gathering inside towns and cities where business prospers and money abounds, contrary to other sects where most of their adepts found in mountains and plains a better refuge, avoiding them turbulence, oppression and threats.
The Shiite sect felt of deprivation contrary to the Sunni one, when Ali, who was supposed to be the caliph, was refused and assassinated and the sect followed a kind of revolutionary path.
But if you mean by plot from another side, the orchestra move, composed from the west with Turkey and Qatar against El-Assad regime specifically, it is a political fact related to his alliance with Iran and Hezbollah.
* Do you fear a civil war in Syria?
I did not give yet any opinion on Syria contrary to most Lebanese figures, when I considered the Syrian problem an interior one, but after things went beyond acceptable limits and all solutions failed, I may say:
The popular division reflected on the Syrian street today, resemble a lot to what happened in Lebanon in 1975, with a unique major difference, that the state and contrary to the Lebanese one at that time, is controlling all areal and marine ports, and forbidding anyone except the army to import arms and munitions, what is delaying the process of civil war.
No one is capable anymore of denying the existence of political division inside the country and no need for media presence to prove that.
But there isn’t either a possibility of starting a war, as long as the army is controlling the situation, even if it is doing so, by using force.
Still the dialogue is absent and there are two parties on the ground, the first is trying to contain the second and cancel its opposition, while the second is trying to break down the first without asking it for any reforms or concessions, but it is only asking to stop the military handling, to limit the number of victims and reinforce its popular position.
It is no more important in this ambiance the alignment of a majority or minority with both parties, since the issue isn’t in democratic elections, but in the street, where a small minority not surpassing one million from 23, can demonstrate continuously and stop the productivity and the economy from running, until it collapses with the local currency, unless the state collapses if the conflict lasts a long period.
Although the armed gangs and individuals called “plotters”, aren’t but outlaw persons, or hired killers or ordinary people that reacted and fired from their personal guns on the security agents and army soldiers, when they intervened by force in the area where they live.
* Do you expect a new war in the region?
I already expected two wars nearly five years before they started in Iraq and against the resistance in Lebanon; and this in private discussions with some friends, since it wasn’t possible to appear in any media.
Thus I expect a regional coming war, maybe through the Syrian unrest, and it may be the strongest after the Second World War, if it takes place.
The reasons for catalyzing it are many, as the plot we mentioned earlier in our conversation, and the unconvincing attitude of Israel regarding peace with the left among Arabs, without a peace treaty, while Israeli officials are declaring frankly their position against the establishment of a Palestinian state and giving back the Golan Heights, after a long peace play since Madrid conference.
Also there’s the constitutional great divergence between the Iranian Regime and the western one, especially American and the Jewish Biblical view upon the new Iranian fact, seen as a threat to their existence.
Shelling will focus primary on Iranian establishments and facilities, secondary on Syrian targets and finally on the Lebanese resistance and army locations, which means that the heaviest military actions won’t take place in Lebanon this time.
