Bullets in Beirut
2012-05-18 23:13:00 The blog “From Mexico to Beirut” took his parents in a car ride over the streets of Beirut and made this impressions: “One thing that I love about having visitors over is that they remind me of the things I used to find incredible about Beirut, and that I have grown accostumed to over the years. So I was very “amused” at first when my family asked me to stop the car to see buildings filled with bullet holes. I guess it has become so common for me to see them that I barely notice them now. My family wanted to take photos. They wanted to know what the story behind the building and the bullets was.” Read more about Beirut from a Mexican perspective: - Not My Beirut. - Culture Awareness.

And much like we layer up with clothes in Norway to protect ourselves from the cold, the bedouins of the Bekaa Valley layer up to protect themselves from the sun.

Robert Fisk: The French has been among the harshest, created the whole mess
2012-04-01 09:56:00 … it is easy to forget that France, whose condemnation of Assad has been among the harshest, created this whole mess in the first place. For it was those crusty Generals Gouraud and Weygand who created ? between the end of the First World War and the 1930s ? four states in Syria, one for the Alawites, one for the Druze, one for Aleppo and one for the rest. The Alawites, an offshoot of Shia Islam, are the minority religion of the Syrian President. The State of the Alawites had a capital in Lattakia, the very city to which Assad might flee if the Damascus regime collapsed. The old State of the Druze in the Houran is still the home of the Syrian Druze community; Mr Jumblatt is busy trying to advise them to join the revolution, which may be easier said in the Chouf mountains of Lebanon than the Houran hills of Syria. Interestingly, letters attached to the Franco-Syrian treaties “de-creating” the four states into one national Syrian state in 1936 show French concern for...

Cedars to the East: A Study of Modern Lebanon ? Student Pulse
2012-03-05 20:25:00 Solving the political problems faced by Lebanon is no easy task. With deep, internal conflicts that date far back and are still tied to a political system imposed by a colonial power, Lebanon?s democracy is delicate to say the least. Besieged constantly by foreign influences and powers, (France, Syria, Israel, Iran, and Saudi Arabia, just to name a few) Lebanon?s sovereignty has never been fully stable, preventing the country from developing and adopting a political system based around its preferences, not the preferences of others. via Cedars to the East: A Study of Modern Lebanon – Student Pulse.
