This is an invitation to discuss the Lebanese problem as it manifests itself today. We are going through a very severe crisis that has crippled the State. The Lebanese Republic is in the process of collapsing. Two factors are responsible for this crisis: Foreign intervention in our internal affairs, and severe ideological division within the Lebanese society.
We need to emancipate ourselves from our reliance on foreign intervention in an attempt to free ourselves from the impasses in which we have trapped ourselves. We must find an adequate way of dealing with our unbridgeable differences. Instead of trying to do the impossible, it will be wise to accept the fact that there are ideological questions that divide us, and that there is now force on earth that can resolve problems of this nature. The only realistic solution is to learn to live with our differences.
French, English and Arabic can be used in this discussion group. I will post in the “Files” section a few texts. You can download them for your convenience. They can be useful in giving us something specific to discuss.
Thank you for your interest. My name is Joseph Codsi.
