[LCM Articles] Our young children..

[Hanna Walid]

Thanks for your comments.

I was sharing a video that I came across because it disturbed me a bit.  Since you state that you "vehemently oppose Hizbollah's indoctrination of children", then I guess it must have shocked you too.  Why then are you questioning my intentions?

Walid,




I must question your intentions behind posting this video. Is it supposed to illustrate the common knowledge that Hezbollah are fundamentalists? I'm sure you had another agenda beyond concern for our youth. So, please, speak it so that we can constructively debate it.

Posting this video and its likes does not prove our current government is legitimate or illegitimate. Nor does posting this make the anti-government protests illegitimate or otherwise. Lebanon has a history of extremism that turned humans to monsters, callous murderers.

We must move beyond scoring political points through propaganda videos (I vehemently oppose Hezbollah's indoctrination of children, which also happens in many house-holds), and onto constructive means for reform that do not inflame our animosity. 

I understand and feel your frustration for the events of the past 18 months. However, we must not forget we, the Lebanese people, were robbed by both sides of our one historic opportunity for true change. 

Finger pointing and partisanship are no longer valid options when we ask for change but root for the same people that prevent it.

Regards,

Mohamad
