He has more at stake than just the Presidency.
Did Aoun make a deal with the Devil since he was in France?
He was promised the presidency and more if he would comply with syrian strategy. Bashar would nominate him governor of Lebanon, a syrian protectorate.
Did Aoun want to acquire a militia?
He surely acts as if he owns Hezbollah and with this alliance, he beefs up his muscles and continuously threatens M14.
So my guess is that his heinous plot is to access the throne, overthrow traditional politicians, reorganize the institutions, change the constitution and institute the Aoun order. Is Aoun foolish enough to bring in the syrians who exiled him, massacred his officers and soldiers and clearly claim Lebanon as their own?
How can so many people, some of them academics and intellectuals, follow the lead of an irrational man who borders insanity?
I can only speculate, but time holds the secret.
