"Hezbollah blocks new government in Lebanon"

As a school parent, I am waiting for the relentless e-mail that says the school is closed even tomorrow night. It usually rings until after midnight.

Lebanon is shaken by the biggest protests in the country for decades. The anger is directed at corrupt politicians who have enriched themselves for decades.

For the most part, the protests have been peaceful, but the massive scale has paralyzed the country. Roads are blocked and universities are closed. The banks that remained open during the country's civil war have boomed again weekly.

The protesters won a partial victory when Prime Minister Saad al-Hariri resigned the country two weeks ago. They require a technocrat government to clean up the corruption and find solutions to the deep economic crisis the country is in.

The United Nations and the US Secretary of State have called on Lebanon to appoint a government immediately.

But in a TV interview last night, Lebanon's president said a new government will be delayed.

His call to the Lebanese who are not happy with their leaders to leave the country caused great anger:

"If people are not happy with their respectable leaders, let them emigrate," said Michel Aoun.

After the statement, the protests took off again. Roads were blocked off throughout the country, car tires were burned and schools, universities and banks were closed again indefinitely. In the heated position one is taken care of

demonstrator, three-grandfather and local politician Alaa Abou Fakher, of a member of the Lebanese army. The shot was reportedly hit in the head.

He immediately, however.

Today, Abou Fakher's portraits appeared everywhere in Beirut.

The situation has been polarized. According to Lebanese politicians, Shiite Hezbollah is blocking the formation of a new government.

Hezbollah, as the terrorist stamp of the United States, is seen as a state in the state of Lebanon.

In order not to lose power, the Iran-backed party - whose armed branch is fighting on President Bashar al-Assad's side in the Syrian war - does not want to give up the ministers in the outgoing government. That's why the formation of a technocrat government is blocked, Lebanese media reports.

Lebanon's Christian president is in close alliance with Hezbollah, and during the interview, Aoun said he believes a politico-technocratic government is the best solution for Lebanon.

A statement that got thousands of protesters gathered outside the presidential palace on Wednesday, scanning "Depart Aoun".

- We are on the streets and we will not leave until all those who have stolen from us have left, says one of the protesters I meet there.

Both camps are determined not to give up.

The gasoline runs out of gas stations. People hoard food and teach their children home.

It happened quickly when it happened. But now the protests have become the new norm here in Lebanon.
