Discussing Syrian refugees and Lebanese government corruption with outspoken, US-educated Ibrahim Muhanna.
Ibrahim Muhanna, chairman of The Muhanna Foundation, in his Beirut office tells The Idiot that:
“The presence of Syrian refugees in Lebanon is a ticking time bomb that we can’t manage. They must be relocated to peaceful parts of Syria.”
“Lebanese government corruption and disfunctionality will only be changed by a crackdown. I would love a military coup d’etat and rule with an iron fist for two years with a timetable back to democracy.”
