Hahahaha So Jeb Bush said that if you're a Christian in Lebanon you'll get beheaded! :lol:

I know the guy is only supposed to be a ceremonial figure and I fully expect him to be an idiot, but seriously, who is his middle east adviser?!

The republican debates are great comedy central material, though the democrats with cyborg Clinton and a few non-figures aren't that much better. Pitty Sanders doesn't stand a chance.

On another note, don't want to be impolite but are you really Lebanese? (some people on here 'carry' flags just because they like their appearance) Cause I was wondering about the current situation there under Hezbollah and how the war in Syria and the migrant crisis are felt. Coverage about Lebanon has always been contradictory, though R.Fisk, who lives there too, manages to shed a more 'positive' light.

Trust me, mate. No one chooses to be Lebanese, they're usually just doomed to be!

Tell me, what do you wish to know?

To be fair the migrant crisis is hardly 'felt' by ordinary people. I mean why would it, they're just people like everyone else who even share the same language and pretty similar culture. It did however cause some disgusting racism from mainstream political parties. But even that has mostly died down 3-4 years into the 'crisis'. But it is felt very much as a crisis by the grossly underfunded NGOs and people who are scrambling to provide something that resembles basic human rights to the poorest of those refugees.

Economically the situation was already terrible to begin with. We are just NOW feeling the full effect of the 09 crisis as Lebanon depended enormously on the money brought into the country by Lebanese people living abroad. We have no industrial sector and the agricultural one is in constant deficit. We rely on tourism and Arabian gulf money and both have dried up considering the situation in the region.

Let's just say that Robert Fisk is a.......'unique' man.

Our conversation suddenly became very topical since there just was a deadly bombing in Beirut.Hope everything is ok and that there aren't too many casualties.

That's also what I wanted to ask you about actually, the political situation. Is sectarian violence between Shia and Sunni also a big issue in Lebanon? And what do you think about Hezbollah? Though it is a recognized and participating political party in your country , countries like the USA, France and the Netherlands classified it as a terrorist organisation. How is this viewed in Lebanon? At last, what do you think about their involvement in the Syrian civil war ?

Sadly Clinton has al the money and media behind her while they're doing everything they can to frame Sanders as an old, weak and crazy leftie who has zero credibilty.

They can try all they want. With social media and othwr websites (reddit, tumblr, etc.) They know the truth. I honestly think Bernie will win. Trump is destroying the Republican party and Clinton is a snake. Bernie has the average blue collar worker behind him.

That's more offensive to me than him calling me a wetback. That hurts.

You do it to yourself by listing website like tumblr and reddit.

Reddit has articles from non biased sources. I don't fux with tumblr. Bernie will win. Watch.

Reddit also has a board that was dedicated to interfering with a police investigation that forced the FBI to release information on the Boston Bombings earlier than they wanted.

"I-it was this guy! He has been missing for days! Let's continue this witch hunt! We did it reddit!"

Turns out the guy they fingered as the culprit killed himself several days earlier and all they did was fuck everything up for everyone.

Ahh, fuck reddit. the only good part of it is the porn.
