Hanna Atik Biography

Hanna Atik is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on February 7, 1959 in Lebanon. Atik was born in Al Hedd-Akkar, Northern Lebanon on February 7, 1959. He was raised by a non-political Maronite couple. Atik was raised in a modest home with his seven siblings. He pursued his education and cultivated the land alongside his parents, who were farmers from many previous generations.

At the age 17 Hanna Atik joined the SKS Force, Phalangist Party. This was the beginning of his long journey to the Lebanese Christian Cause. His devotion to his fellow soldiers earned him the nickname “Hanoun” early in his career. He was a remarkable soldier, with exceptional courage and determination. He grew with the Phalangist party’s evolution and joined the Lebanese Forces at its inception in 1982 under the leadership of Bachir Gemayel.

In 1985, during one the uprisings within the Lebanese Forces amongst its leaders in what is known as 15 Kenoun (January), Hanna Atik lost his brother, Rezkollah Yussuf Atik, at the age of twenty three (23) to martyrdom. Shortly after, he was unjustly detained for ten (10) days under the new leadership of the Lebanese Forces. However, he agreed to continue serving within the ranks of the Lebanese Forces pending two conditions: That all other detained LF members be released unharmed and that he, personally, will never obey an order to hold a gun against any of his comrades. On the other hand, he vowed to be the first on the defense line in case of any advancement from the enemy.

As believers do, he accepted God’s will and continued the journey, honoring and always remembering the sacrificed blood of his brother and of all the Christian martyrs. Throughout his many years of commitment to the Lebanese Forces, he held various positions including District Chief of the LF Headquarters (ka’ed mantakat l makarr l aam), Head of the 1st and 2nd Task Force (lafeet takteekee lel she3ba 1 and 2), and Commander of the 1st Defense Battalion (ka’ed lewa’ al difa3). Eventually, he became the Vice Chief of Staff (Na’eb ka’ed majles al arkan) and in 1991 he held the 1 out of 12 seats in the LF Leadership Council (3adu Majles Al Kiyada) and was appointed Head of the LF Youth Organization (Ameen l shabeb).

Hanna has been awarded many medallions of honours for his bravery and dedication to the Cause. This includes an Honorary sword, presented by President Bachir Gemayel to him in 1977, when he made him Officer (dabet)), Zahle’s Heroic Medallion 1981, and Saint Elige’s highest honorary award, which is only given to a few leaders in the community.

In his teens, the Lebanese War broke out. Akkar was also witness to numerous vicious attacks in other parts of Lebanon. He was 16 years old when he first experienced the violence of war. After intense confrontations with Palestinian-backed forces, the Lebanese Army pulled out from Bayt Mellat. His grandmother and uncle trusted him with leading the two soldiers along the river, from Al Hedd (about 16 km) to Al Kubayyat. He was grateful and concerned for his safety, so one soldier gave him his gun. He took the gun and traveled down the river to his home at dusk. It was the first time he had ever held a gun in his life as a farmer.
