(Ha'aretz) Zvi Bar'el - On Monday, Samir Geagea, leader of the Christian Lebanese Forces party, publicly endorsed his rival, former general Michel Aoun, for the presidency, replacing his loyalty to Saad al-Hariri, head of the anti-Syrian al-Mustaqbal movement (and son of Rafik al-Hariri, the prime minister murdered by Syrian intelligence in 2005), with an alliance with the enemy camp headed by Hizbullah which wants Aoun for president.
