Friedman has gotten wrong when it comes to a analyzing the Lebanonese elections in that the Christians get allocated half of the seats in parliament even though they are less than half of the population. As I have stated before the Lebanonese elections are not really that democratic and the gerrymadering of parliamentary seats which gives the Christains an unfair edge will always led to political chaos in that country.
