Gibran, the secretary general of the Supreme Council of the Southern Movement in Aden, told Arab-language Aljazeera television network that his movement will not attend the reconciliation talks which has been initiated by the Persian Gulf Cooperation Council (PGCC) and wants freedom, independence, separation of Southern Yemen and its autonomy.
These are poems, in
Gibran's words, of "immeasurable beauty"--making art out of pain.

Gibran (played with charm and a sense of innocence by Fanos Xenofs) is a man simmering with frustration; a frustrated painter (his artistic aspirations stymied by his provocative sister), a frustrated writer who complains of being paraded in public like a circus act, and - from the distance of his home in one of Boston's poorest immigrant enclaves - a romantic and frustrated fighter for freedom for Lebanon from the oppressive Ottoman regime.
The Lebanese-born
Gibran is the third most-read poet in history, after Shakespeare and Lao-Tzu, and has been translated in to more than 40 languages.

Gibran, Samir and Pierre and the Lebanese martyrs, to all martyrs for freedom in Syria, and the children of this brave people.
Lebanese Energy Minister
Gibran Bassil and his Iranian counterpart Majid Namjou signed a number of agreements on Friday furthering cooperation in the sectors of energy, water and oil.

Gibran, for
Gibran was born almost black.

Gibran, 23 and Ferkhan, 21, all of Rochdale, Greater Manchester, are charged with conspiracy to commit fraud and money laundering.
