Lebanon the beautiful The painful story continues..

Lebanon is a democratic, multicultural, multi-ethnic, multi-religious, tolerant, recently reconstructed, fragile, and historic small country of four million people in the Middle East. A beautiful country with wonderful beaches, mountains, valleys, cities, and villages.

A liberal multicultural country

A mosaic country of different ethnic and religious groups living in harmony…

A country that paid billions of dollars and spared no effort to reconstruct and re- establish itself as the pearl of the Middle East. A beacon of hope!!

A majestic country that cherished the returns of tourists from all over the world

A country of origin for more than 12 millions people of Lebanese ancestry worldwide

BUT….. When two Israeli murderers were kidnapped..

Israel announced it wanted to defend it self..

Bush said “ Israel must defend it self “.

Lebanon started experiencing hell on July 12 th, 2006

It started with bombing crowded cities, airports, seaports, fuel storage tanks, villages, grain silos, bridges, main roads, communication masts, and light houses.

Many escaped the Israeli shelling… Some made it alive.

Some did not.

27 Children and counting been berried after buildings were demolished over their little body. This baby’s mother died holding him.

29 men and women where among the berried bodies

They ran out of body bags.

Death was still waiting at the end of the tunnel.

Still ……

Lebanon …Never dies.

And will always rise up again.

And Again…

Because the flag will always fly high..

And the tree strong and will never die..

Act to stop the violence, the madness, and the aggression in the Middle East Call, , or visit your elected officials and encourage them to act on stopping the hostilities and brokering peace in the Near East. Until the sunshine day…

Call or the media outlets and encourage them to cover more the human suffering and the possibility of brokering peace. Call the embassies and consulates of countries involved and demand an end for the hostilities Support humanitarian organizations PLEASE…Stop their fear of death… their tears… and give them the least….(hope to live).
