	Amin Gemayel
		Unlike his brother Bashir, Amin was never active in the Phalangist militia, and was not directly involved in the Lebanese Civil War.
		Amin was considered a moderate, and at his accession many Muslims hoped that he represented an end to the dominance of the extremists tactics of the Phalange Party.
		The problems Amin had to face were grave: Two foreign armies occupied large parts of the country (hence these areas were out of his jurisdiction), and there was extensive violence everywhere.

	Dossier: Amine Gemayel (February-March 2003)
		The death of the aging Pierre Gemayel, whose presence in the cabinet served to quiet Christian opposition to the government, and the passing of the Maronite patriarch in the fall of 1984 led some in the LF to believe that the time was right to break with Gemayel completely.

		Gemayel says that he has received assassination threats and warnings to leave the country, but insists that he will not be intimidated into leaving or revising his political views.
