Lebanon's army chief not a presidential candidate
2007-11-02
The Lebanese Army Command announced Wednesday that Lebanon's army chief Gen. Michel Suleiman is not a candidate for the presidential office and urged keeping his name outside political manipulation. A Communique said media organizations carry "political stands that intend to implicate the name of Army Commander Gen. Michel Suleiman as a presidential candidate, thus implying that he is the candidate of this party or that. The Commander of the Army is not a candidate for any post in line with the constitution."
Good man. My respect for him just notched up. "If nominated, I will not run. If elected, I will not serve." He doesn't want to see his country become Pakistain.
