WASHINGTON - U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Tuesday urged Lebanon’s political leaders to help form a new government responsive to the needs of its people after Saad al-Hariri resigned as prime minister after huge protests against the ruling elite. “The peaceful demonstrations and expressions of national unity over the last 13 days have sent a clear message. The Lebanese people want an efficient and effective government, economic reform, and an end to endemic corruption,” Pompeo said in a statement.

Haha first you should call for your own corrupt government Shameless

Not only Impertinent but also condemnable remarks!

They should try a republic...like what was actually given to Americans...the founders detested democracies and wrote extensively on the subject. They seem to push democracies on everyone...because democracies are easy to corrupt.

By the way I think you do a great job, it’s gotta be tough, hang in there!

We have no credibility. None.

Pompeo better get back to Kansas and crank up his run for the Senate there before he gets any more Trump filth on him. That stuff isn't going to wash off.

Mr Pompeo, their government is not our business.

Why do what you want!

And a puppet, of course.

Sorry wrong number.

The international community:

Mind your business and clean up your W H

Efficient gov ? What the hell is this to mean ?

They could use one in California, too.

Pompey needs to just go away.

Is he displeased with how slowly they are digging up dirt on the Bidens?

Something something remove the plank out of your own eye.

How about here first?

How about one in Washington D C

USA's citizens call for new, efficient government in DC.

I call for that here.

Never like looking at this man. He is untrustworthy.

People in glass houses should not throw politicians.

I’d settle for a new, efficient government in the United States.

In my book he has no credibility to call for a efficient government in any country-he is part of fast and loose crowd in this administration whose foreign policy is virtually nonexistent-just photo ops and meaningless rhetoric-

Start home 1st.

He should call for a new, efficient government in the USA.

secpompeo What a hypocrite.

Traitor

genius ! i bet he thinks putting gas in a car after it runs out is a good idea too

I call for Pompeo’s resignation.

Pompeo is going to jail!

Let’s get one here also...

What the hell is wrong with Pompous? We need a new, efficient government here. Pompous would do well by firing himself.😡👎

Notice a theme developing in the responses?

Who the f**k cares what Pompeo calls for?

Efficient means 90-degree pro-America govt in traditional faction fighting Lebanon?

We call for the same in the United States. TrumpIsAnIdiot LockHimUp

An efficient government like ours?

Our regime changes keep failing... Better try a new country!

He should call for the same thing in his own country

Thy don't noe how to mind their own do they .....

run by his lord & savior, Jared Trump!

Think ya might want to work on the one here!
