Editorials By: Deputy Prime Minister Issam Abu Jamra
Biography: Gen. Issam Abou Jamra was born in the town of al-Kfeir, south Lebanon, in 1937. He joined the Lebanese army in 1956 and graduated from its military academy as an artillery officer in 1959. In 1990, he was promoted to Major General (Liwa’). He attended military courses in France and the United States (the last of which was a General Staff course in Kansas in 1980) and was awarded several military decorations. He received a university law degree in 1984. During the course of his military career, Abou Jamra attained high-ranking positions such as the Secretary of the Army Commander in Chief, Commander of the Second Artillery Battalion, Commander of the Second Brigade, Commander of the Seventh Brigade, Inspector General of the Defense Ministry, and member of the Military Council between 1984 and 1990. Abou Jamra served as Deputy Prime Minister in the interim military government headed by Gen. Michel Aoun from 1988-1990 and was in charge of six ministries. After the Syrians invaded east Beirut in October 1990, Abou Jamra and Aoun stayed at the French embassy for ten months, along with Gen. Edgar Maalouf, before leaving for exile in Nice, France. Abou Jamra is an active leader in the Free Patriotic Movement (FPM), the main nationalist opposition group in Lebanon.
