Intellectuals in support of the current protests in Lebanon.

Mr. Khalil, You shouldn't have sign then. This "naïve gesture" come after many failed attempts to convince Lebanese intellectuals to make a public statement.

I am very willing to stop this petition and offer YOU the opportunity to move your fat ass from your high, comfortable academic position and take the initiative to come up with something not so "naïve".
