Why doesn’t Lebanon return to Syria?

This is the head­line on Saudi news­pa­per Al-Riyadh “Why doesn’t Lebanon return to Syria?” is cel­e­brated and repub­lished by the Syr­ian media. Turki Al-Sadeiri the Saudi writer says:

The prob­lem with Lebanon, is that it is dif­fi­cult the Gov­ern­ment to lead every­one within its bor­ders … in Syria, there is a strong gov­ern­ment able to melt Lebanon’s multi-governments within.

After furi­ous reac­tions from the Lebanese media (14 March group), the Saudi writer tried to explain his posi­tion with another arti­cle “This is what I meant about Lebanon and Syria”.

I wanted to say, that peace can not be achieved in Lebanon only by impos­ing it from an exter­nal power.

Which made things worst than it was, which forced the writer to write an apol­ogy arti­cle, say­ing:

It is not a mis­take to admit my mis­take, I made an error in the expres­sion and that deserves an apol­ogy and correction.
