This was the former Lebanese president named Bashir, who was in office twenty years ago. This man was a great leader and very loyal to his country. He was also the head of the Falangist Christian party, a man of god. Lebanon is the only Middle eastern country lead by a Christian president. So for Bashir to be the the leader of the Falangist group was a great thing for the country. He was assassinated right after he ordered all of the citizens of Lebanon to return their weapons to the government. This caused some fear towards opposing countries that do not wish peace for Lebanon. So this is charged full of love, adoration and pride from the Lebanese people for their beloved president.
This was interesting and your right, full of love and compassion for his country. It is sad he was assasiinated trying to improve his country, unfortunately, the fear of the people not being able to have weapons obviously sent someone over the edge. I like to hear about things that we don't usually have access to. great blog.
