The Lebanon I Dream Of...

This documentary intends to open the eyes of the Lebanese youth to the real problems in their society. it gathers 45 carefully selected Lebanese figures who start by showing how beautiful Lebanon is and how terribly ugly we have made it. Then it states every practical issue in their daily life: social, political, economic, ecological and humanitarian. When reaching to solutions, those who were supposed to be a solution turn out to be the real problem: The judicial system, Media and civil society. The only solutions left are education and elections. In the end they all dream of the Lebanon they would like to have and turn with a direct message to the young generation and hand them the responsibility of change.

What I Formally and Seriously suggest:

From each spokesman in this video to lead election lists themselves and you've got my vote and the many of others.This video has 60,000 views from youtube users only! knowing that this community represents a small part of the Lebanese. So imagine the scale of voters

You took the initiative to make this video...

All of you, with no doubt are knowledgeable personals...

This short film has to be promoted ! The number of viewers to-date is too low! It's brilliant and it deserves to be viewed by as many Lebanese as possible! We should find sponsors to cover the cost of producing something like 500,000 CDs to be distributed throughout Lebanon (universities, clubs, resorts...). And we should maybe think of airing the film in front of the parliament on a giant screen ! LOL !

Dream of a free nation. Don't desire for a stronger government that will strip away more of your rights.

@lebanonisforus and an opposition. The problem is that they both are inept and unable to change the situation of the country because it doesn't benefit them. We need them out, and we need new people with new ideas. The youth are our future so it is up to us to change the current situation. I live abroad so it's difficult for me to find answers because i don't live there daily.. I hope that helped man

@lebanonisforus Sorry for the late reply, i've been in Lebanon for two months with no internet access. Well I merely placed my opinion so I have no concrete ideas, however I do believe that we should try remove most politicians that are in power. Fair enough we have our loyalty to a certain group but the future of the country and its people are more important than an individual or a group. There is nothing wrong with the idea of march 14 and march 8 as all governments have an acting government

I dream of Lebanon without Hezbollah

@landofthegolden You clearly didn't watch the video. That whole part about Lebanon taking care of Lebanon's problems and not needing France, the US, Israel, etc. ... that's kind of what non-intervention is all about. Ron Paul advocates against murder and empire. The last thing Lebanon needs is to destroy economic opportunity to enrich the elites. The last thing you need is stronger masters.

[landofthegolden]

@AynRandFanJG I am fully aware of who Ron Paul is and I still maintain my position. Paul's anti-intervention stance is precisely what this documentary is speaking out against. While Paul advocates against institutions like FEMA, Social Security, and NCLB, Lebanon is in desperate need of its gov to step up and provide a basic structure of assistance. Paul's philosophy may be relevant in the US where gov has grown uncontrollable, but here in Lebanon we barely have a gov to begin with.

[AynRandFanJG]

@landofthegolden Who said anything about looking at the US and its politicians as an example? Ron Paul is an anomaly. He is anti-war, pro-peace, anti-intervention. He does not believe the government should be your mommy and daddy. Sounds like you don't know who Ron Paul is. Don't worry, neither does most of the United States.
