    Aoun Labels Geagea an 'Executioner'


    Free Patriotic Movement leader Gen. Michel Aoun on Saturday slammed
    Lebanese Forces chief Samir Geagea labeling him an "executioner" who
    put all his victims in a single electoral list.

    Geagea is an "executioner who was able to gather all his victims in a
    single electoral list," Aoun told a Change and Reform bloc rally at
    the Forum de Beyrouth.

    He vowed to liberate the Lebanese from repression if his party wins
    the June 7 elections.

    "We are now in a stage of liberation from a hereditary repression that
    lasted for years," he told the crowd.

    "Our Christian belief urges us to forgive those who harmed us, but we
    should only forgive those who repent," he added.

    MP Ibrahim Kanaan also said during the rally: "Your victory in Metn
    district means end of family monopoly, the fall of financial feudalism
    and fall of authority and power."

    "You will tell your children in the future that you are the ones who
    produced the Third Republic on June 7, 2009," he said.

    MP Hagop Pakradounian, in his turn, said: "We want a Lebanon strong
    with its army and a Lebanon represented by all factions."

    "We are not ashamed of our alliances and from our past," he added.

    For those who doubt the enthusiasm of the Armenians, Pakradounian
    said: "The resolve of the Armenian citizen did not weaken. We are in
    the heart of the battle."
