gemayel nadim Phalange party MP Nadim Gemayel told Voice of Lebanon on Monday that Free Patriotic Movement leader MP Michel Aoun is using Hezbollah to pressure Prime Minister Saad Hariri into accepting the former’s proposal – which is to grant the FPM 40 percent of the Christian seats in the Beirut municipal council during the May municipal elections.

“This is simply unacceptable,” said Gemayel, adding that the FPM will not be granted more than two seats in the council.

Aoun did not directly inform the Lebanese Forces and the Phalange of his demands in Beirut, said Gemayel, adding that he does not understand how the FPM leader agrees to directly negotiate with the two parties over all municipalities except that of Beirut.

mp nadim gemayel sounds like he is trying to recapture some of the political leadership and charisma that his late father bashir was mastering in his times.

the young gemayel is tring hard to be heard, recognized and taken seriously.

he can make speeches and address audiences better than most christian parliament members.

so far he stood the grounds without being intimidated on a lot of national issues, some of them taboos, like hezballah’s weapons, better than most seasoned higher ranking politicians.

he is talking a serious 100% lebanese talk but unable so far to walk the walk.

if youn mp gemayel wanted to continue on his late father’s footsteps and if he wants to be taken seriously in consideration by all lebanese across the board and by friends and foes alike, he needs to acquire a certain dose of aoun’s aggressivity + hezballah’s weapons and some scud missiles to back him up.

This guy is nothing special and neither was his father. Political dynasties protecting the interests of feudal warlords nothing more.
