haha.. thanks saxophone sam. i don't think the lebanese are too fluent in Lennon just yet. *fingers crossed* maybe one day.

[juneonesix]

thanks you guys. it means a lot that someone is watching and paying attention. your comments have been very helpful the past few days.

the newest video i posted today is a bit of a relief, i actually only made it because of you guys and your support. just wanted to show you that i'm okay, we're okay, thank god. can't speak for the rest of the country though, unfortunately.

well it's quieter now thank God. but they really trashed my neighborhood, I wish I could have gotten the aftermath of it on video but I didn't want to walk around with my camera.

sorry to see you in that position, lebanon is not strange to violance, every time the USA ,saudi arabia and ISRAEL increases there activities in lebanon troubles starts, it looks to me and to the world if i may say, that USA and ISRAEL are the main cause of all evils in this world, by spreading wars and hate amongst people,

I was there, too. In the Hamra, stuck in the Commodore hotel. We had to escape through Syria on Day 2. It was the scariest thing I have ever been through in my entire life.

I feel sad for you, evan though I dont know what it is like. I feel sad for all the ppeople who have to deal with this. I hope you all make it through.

Nice video Noha...watching it, I got chills and memories of those HORRIBLE few nights...

I don't think I had enough self-control to videotape myself. I was freaking out!

I know it isn't Christmas, but as John & Yoko said:

Happy Christmas, the war is over (hopefully).

Noha wouldn't say, but I will:

Bullshit...

Try saying that in the middle of it...

We were there.

Noha, being a Lebanese is not easy. I'm 31 years old. since i was born they tell me we went out of war, LEB is going to be fine. It's a fuckin Jungle. They are Donkey's in a suit,that's why i am in Canada now. Who ever has brains and clean mind. Will leave that country and never look back. Lebanon for me stopped on July 25th,2005. Losing 87 thousand US dollars. :)

yo dude, its a comfort to know that this video was in the past so like i hope that things jus get better or at least calmer from now on. dont really know what else to say. it super sucks (4give my limited vocab, still kinda in shock at seeing u amidst that) that u had to go thru this and go thru it without anyone.
