Shukur, Alloush Heated Debate Erupts into On-Air Fistfight

W300

A heated debate between Baath Party leader Fayez Shukur and Mustaqbal Movement official ex-MP Mustafa Alloush erupted into a verbal clash and a fistfight during a live talk show on MTV on Monday.

As the two were arguing over the Syrian crisis, Shukur repeatedly asked Alloush to refrain from describing Syrian President Bashar al-Assad as a “tyrant”, “criminal” and “liar”.

Alloush, however, insisted that he had the right to speak his mind.

“You are a liar and your master is a liar,” Shukur shouted at the rival Mustaqbal official at that point, which prompted Alloush to hit back with “shut your mouth!” and “eat s***.”

An infuriated Shukur retaliated with a tirade of obscenities and cursed Alloush’s mother.

He then hit Alloush with a pen and a cup of water and carried a chair to assault the rival politician. The show’s host, a shocked Walid Abboud, physically intervened at that point and prevented Shukur from reaching Alloush.

The program then went off air before resuming around 10 minutes later, with the two foes returning to their seats and the episode witnessing no further incidents.

A Dr prescribing shit as a medicine and the other Dr is using profanity to create a psychological change!!!!
The Analysis:
1 - Walid Abboud is the Jerry Springer of Lebanon
2- The followers of Shokr and Allouch should really understand the low level of their sectarian Leaders
3- Dr Allouch planned provocation will gain him the momentum he lost when he negatively commented the freedom in KSA
4-The Lebanese version of freedom has proven its destructive nature
5-The only TV that should have a news section is Tele Liban the rest should be banned from spreading hatred among the Lebanese
6- The Army is the only hope. He should ban doctors from practicing sorcery!!

Why are folks surprised, after all people who dare disagree with the Baathists often end up dead, violence is their preferred tool to silence their critics.

So a follower of the biggest lying machine, that of Hariri Mafia, dares to call others liars! Go figure. It's like Jumblatt calling Geagea criminal and a traitor!

A great example of the Baath Party behavior, like we saw at the pharmacy a few months ago. They can insult others but cannot take it in return, and they resort to violence if they don't get their way.

This behavior is not compatible with democracy and freedom of speech. Under a dictatorship government, or in mafia and militia controlled societies, this type of attitude and behavior is common. Intimidation and violence against one's enemies. They believe that only they are allowed to throw insults, and that they are above being insulted in return.

Once Assad is deposed, then Hezbollah, SSNP, Baath Party, and Amal will be severely weakened, and eventually this type of behavior will no longer be tolerated or relevant.

Great
This is democracy in full Scale....
It happens in Taiwan, in Spain, in Italy and Latin America.....
However the reason is usually domestic Politic and domestic agenda......

In Lebanon.....The excitement is to defend, protect and fight for a foreign leader or foreign policy.....
What a sell out and what is Shame....Not Democracy any more just blind stupidity

Saying that Bachar is a liar is very kind, he's more than a liar he is a criminal.

M.Alloush is courageous facing syrians and beqaa scums.
BTW Alloush was not choosen by his party to be MP so how to describe him as a slave ?

He is totaly right and with such a piece of shit (shukur) defending a man killing his own people in front of him, how could he stay calm ?

This is how Syrian backed politicians always act. Now they are more frustrated knowing they paychecks will soon be gone.

Typical animal behavior from an animal axis.

Aloush is brave to speak his mind and tell it like it is, I hope he does not get assassinated very soon by the thugs.
There is nothing wrong with stating the facts, Shukur is representing who? Syrian Baath party in Lebanon? when this thug asks Aloush who are you to believe or not to believe Bashar, the answer should have been that I am Lebanese unlike you.

Nobody has the right to allow or disallow people to speak their honest opinion about anybody in a democratic country. They don't like democracy, they can simply leave Lebanon.
Well done MTV for not cutting the the live coverage too early!
This shows us all what to expect when the so called majority runs the country.
I hope GMA wakes up before it's too late if he uses 1% of what is left of his brain! He will be on the O-comedy channel tonight anyway defending his thugs.
Bye Bye Syria and Hizb Allah. A dream coming true slowly but better then never!
God bless Lebanon!

The true shame is that while these two go kinetic over the veracity of Bashar al Assad, Hezbollah is quietly taking over their country, little by little, step by step until at the end their pockets will have been picked clean except for the lint.
