Lebanon is my heart and soul. It is the greatest country in the middle east. I am proud to have a heritage from that small peace of land. I just wish ISRAEL, SYRIA, and the U.S. would leave the Lebanese alone.

Long live Lebanon.

There is no more hospitable, loving, generous, love for fun and life more than the Lebanese people,its just basically we are royally fucked because we are in between Israel and the rest of tee Arab world, ask any foreign visitor who visited Lebanon how they cried to know how its being destroyed, and how much they love the country and its people. lebanon well be back

Mr Swiss, convince us all on why you assert The Lebanon is a Hizbala dictatorship, last I checked Michel Suleiman is a catholic. We are waiting.

@n5017858 See, I've always had a weakness for Arabs covered in rags with beards. Nazrallah is one hot fag.

@celloswiss The Hizbala dictatorship evidence, Mr Swiss

[celloswiss]

@n5017858 Anybody who believes somebody with the nickname of "celloswiss" is a yankee, needs their brain examined.

[n5017858]

@celloswiss your belief is not solid evidence, try again. Provide the evidence why you know that The Lebanon is under a Hizbala dictatorship. Enlighten us all. Or are you still hunting around for the WMD's?

Ignorant Yank.

[celloswiss]

@n5017858 I absolutely believe that Lebanon is NOT a free country and is controlled by Hezbollah. I think a dictatorship is a completely appropriate term.

It's another example of Arab denial of reality or as Abba Eban used to say: The Arabs never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity.

How apt.

[n5017858]

@celloswiss Are you suggesting that The Lebanon is a dictatorship? lead by the Hizbola? can you please provide proof of this? bear in mind that I have spent time in this country and I strongly suspect you have not. What proof do you have that freedom of speech is forbidden in The Lebanon? Show us all the true extent of your ignorance and demonstrate once and for all that you do in fact have shit for brains.

[celloswiss]

@n5017858 I don't see any public protests in Lebanon like we are witnessing in other countries in the Middle East, including Syria and Israel. To conclude from this that all's well in Lebanon is a bit simplistic. The country is obviously not free and is under occupation of a terrorist organization called Hezbollah. Lebanon was the only Arab League member to publicly swear allegiance to the Assad regime - hardly a sign of free thinking and speech.

Underwhelming.

[n5017858]

@celloswiss Well, how many other places in Middle East North Africa have not had protests, witnessed violence or otherwise been implicated in a goverment crackdown? and has teh Lebanon seen any renewed civil war this year? or anything even close?

[celloswiss]

@n5017858 If anybody here is "brainwashed", it must be you. Why would someone who's nickname is "celloswiss" be American? Duh? And as for Lebanon being "the only peaceful place" - dream on.

Clearly, it is YOU who needs a reality check.
