does the west know?

Does the west know, that the free patriotic movement doesn't promote dum arabic taboos? We have issues with Israel but we don't lead anti-Israeli witch hunts.

These are the proponents of ego. Opposite to them are the proponents of science, archeologists who demonstrated the validity of phoenician ruins, and the Lebanese who echo their findings
