Guess sectarianism is the gathering in religous parties & following its leader.... 2 be honest all of us r divided in this manner...
how 2 get rid of it? we have to look on whts causing the prob,,,, it might be our leaders cuz it the only way 2 stay as they r ... or its the fear from talkingthe other on the next side ....
guess wht tayyar & hizublah did was a good and made 2 exterme parites communicate and put the base 4 bulding a country,,,,
but still it's lebanon...religon rules here..

Sactarianism in lebanon is not religious like before, as a strong proof the bonding btw Hizbullah and Tayyar. Lets not talk about religion and who is a sactarian and who is not cuz we are all brothers and sisters, and we are all living together peacefully if we just dont have some of the corrupted politicians. There is only one solution for this, and which starts from the person himself, lets take one part of a religion which states that a person should clarify himself so God will clarify the community. This is the solution, purify our soul by getting rid of racism, sactarianism, looking at differences btw people, who is good and who is better, as an example, i get soo mad when i hear this, during war when ahl ilda7ya ilshorafa went to beirut to stay there, i heard one of the people living in beirut,"alabuwa da7ya hon" and she acted as if she is disgusted. I am sure that she is just a parasite btw the lebanese people, and we shouldnt stereotype. About the future, if they just let GMA and SHN, rule the country it is going to be a paradise, not because im with them, our i love them blindly, but because they are really pure, and whoever carries purity and cares for the good of the nation, is in a place of a prophet, "halla2 seet jdeed la GMA and SH, prophets :P" wo n2ehro ya a3de2 :P" c'mon i was just talking about sactarianism."Lebanese shou badna na3moul". As my political leader's actions, i dont know,atlease he is doing what God tells him to do whether it increases or decreases those levels. And everyone agrees with me the what God wants is right.wla shou?

[General]

Sectarianism: refers (usually pejoratively) to a rigid adherence to a particular sect or party or denomination. It often implies discrimination, denunciation, or violence against those outside the sect. The term is most often used to refer to religious sectarianism, involving conflict between members of different religions or denominations of the same religion. It is also frequently used to refer to political sectarianism, generally on the part of a tight-knit political faction or party.

Who the sectarian now?
The one who asks for democracy or the one seeking his kingdom? the one who's ready to accept the other? or the one who can't accept anyone but him and his friends

1st of all i will search 4 sectarianism roots, who did put that fatal plant in our land. foreign countries beginning with the turkish and frech people.am talking about 300 yrs and more. centuries ago, these countries looked 4 their interests in our land, and choosed their goals, the french mission was " protect and the survive of christians in the east" while the turkish mission was " protecting the islamic nation from foreign attacks" and here goes the story, well i dont blame these countries 4 doing that, it's their interests and they need that, bt wat about the lebanese society which really failed long ago in destroying this disease,thats the past... wat about the great people, wat about ANTOUN S3ADE' , JIBRAN , they died long ago bt their principles live 4 ever, antoun s3ade' was killed by the new sectarianism kings who found that this person can destroy their religious castles. well i can c in some lebanese parties a beatiful view of united lebanon, wat about the syrian social nationalistic party, communists (am just talking about their historical fight against sectarianism and not about the other principles), ssnp's and communists stepped over this disease long time ago, and they r waiting 4 us 2 do so " not me, thx god am an ssnp " , i dont mean that people should belong 2 these parties, bt just 2 sit, listen, and learn from these people. i do beleive that general 3on and his tayyar gonna step over this fatal problem 2, they can in the presence of such leader.... and very soon
