The Lebanese twist on the don't drink and drive campaign

don't let a little thing like morality get in the way; US foreign policy explained by Kissinger

Noam Chomsky is an honest witness of the US policy in the middle east:

"the us prefers islamic extremists to secular nationalists".

"Kissinger has said "foreign policy is not be confused with missionary work"; Kurds have been first recruited by the US to topple Saddam (in ), then sold out to him, which made them helpless in the face of Iraki repression:

while the world asks "didn't you have a civil war?"...

In Lebanon, it's common from people from multiple religions, among muslims and christians to pray to St Charbel or other religious icons. St Charbel is a deceased, contemporary saint, who has performed medically-recognized miracles, in patients from diverse background.

I look forward to the following miracle one day: a western person comes into his church and leaves saying "Lebanon is pluralistic, enlightened, and no the civil war was not real, it was a foreign manipulation". Now that would be impressive!

and no, the suicide bombers in Lebanon are not a local problem. They couldn't be more foreign, especially since they were trained, armed and financed by Britain and the US, according to the Guardian: http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/jun/03/us-isis-syria-iraq

As well as Saudi Arabia, Turkey and supported by Israel: http://www.globalresearch.ca/twenty-six-things-about-the-islamic-state-isil-that-obama-does-not-want-you-to-know-about/5414735

Preserving and protecting our Lebanese culture

From Lebanese Insider:

Preserving and protecting our Lebanese culture:



Here is a quote

Pope John Paul II called Lebanon a “message” country for it’s example of diversity and pluralism for both the East and the West. Instead of shying away from Lebanon’s message, it should be our duty to embrace it and echo the authentic message of our homeland.
The biased news media will not do it for us.
The American public won’t do it for us.
Surrounding countries won’t do it for us.
We are lucky to live in a country that welcomes a ‘salad bowl’ culture — where many different cultures combine and maintain their individual uniqueness. As Lebanese-Americans we have no duty to ‘Americanize’ or assimilate into one.  The U.S. is not owned by one race, one religion, or one creed.
