The Lebanese can vote for whom they wish. Democracy is about representing your opinion, not doing what Nadine wants.

OK Nadine, maybe you know this. If Israel wants a decisive and lasting result, why doesn't it use its nukes on Syria and Iran?

Why demolish this little country with 3 (or maybe 2) planes in its 'airforce?' What good will it do for Lebanon to be wiped off the face of the earth if they claim that Syria and Iran are the actual culprits?

Why don't they simply, decisively take out Syria and Iran neither of whom have nukes?
