A Reprimand Well-Deserved | |

[ENGLISH.AAWSAT] It is difficult to find a country other than Leb ...an Iranian colony situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozeen flavors of Christians. It is the home of Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers... whose leaders are subjected to the insults directed at them by the French government, while they continue to open their doors and arms to every official coming from Gay Paree to visit them.

#7 ithas lost any right to continue representing its people after the crimes it had managed to "accomplish" in every field: financial, social and political. They could be talking about America's political class. Consider the mendacity incompetence corruption and rank criminality of .. the Bidens .. Cuomo .. Hillary .. Comey, Brennan, McCabe, Strzok .. Schiff and Pelosi .. the "Squad" .. Newsom, Whitmer, Lightfoot, the Soros DAs Poster #1 above is right. We need to be rescued from our own bastards who are destroying this country .. |

#6 "..The problem is that the Lebanese are dispersed between different religious affiliations and sects ... and they have no time to save their country!" No. The problem is that one of the sects is Hezbollah. |

#5 ...The Leb politicians grew up when there was a saying there - "Truly France is our benevolent mother." Things change. Mike |

#3 A 'snark' denotes humor, irony, or possibly both. Here there is no humor. What Unolulet Flavising has aptly described is the tragic collapse of civilization. |

#1 Way back when, Beruit was referred to as "The Paris of the Mideast". These days they say "Paris is the Beruit of Europe". |
