I just read Sheikh Al Assir is planning a sit-in in Beirut’s Martyrs Square in support of the Syrian uprising today at 4pm. I never thought I would say that but protests should be banned once and for all in Martyrs Square, at least in these critical times. The guy is living in Saida and there are tons of places to protest there yet he chooses to go down to Beirut and cause the ISF and Lebanese army to deploy, block roads and cause traffic.
People want to go out, enjoy the nice weather and take a walk on the Zaytounay Bay or in DownTown Beirut on a Sunday.
noooo 🙁 I was going to go to Beirut today.
I wonder if such beards itch like crazy. Is that itching and flaking worth being an insane bastard?
“People want to go out, enjoy the nice weather and take a walk on the Zaytounay Bay”, not everyone. I personally enjoy political unrest and listening to fiery speeches.
yeah who gives a rat’s ass about people dying, i want to eat a burger and look at all the pretty boats.
U People!!! the man is taking risk of himself to defend our dignity and our good life in order to get out freely without any fear or the possibility of being attacked from the”arms holders” ….. And all we care abt is going out….!!! This cld b really desperatin!!
He’s a tool, just trying to cause sensationalism. I’m not defending Hezbollah, but I hate extremism of all faiths.
Salafis are not any better than extremist Shiites and I refuse to have a Salafi represent me.
Defending your dignity? More like keeping terrorism alive.
allah ye7me el Sheikh Ahmad…
