If there is anything that mirrors our society so clearly, would be this fuzzy, old movie.Never has any movie affected me personally as much as this movie. If you’ve got three hours to burn and want to thwart off local news. You’ll understand me perfectly when you rethink Lebanese society while watching this. [...]

The sectarian violence in Iraq and the social anatomy of Lebanon forces people to talk in terms of sects. It is our long buried, new standard of labeling ourselves.When we should be focusing on the main task after the Syrian withdrawal. We all demonstrated on March 8 and on March 14, 2005 for the future [...]

One of my favorite Lebanese blogs have posted a great post on the silenced ones, and I’ll join the blogosphere in spreading our stand.

These days haven’t been kind to the Israeli Prime minister with probes he’s being faced with. Out of all the news roaming on Lebanon scattered throughout the internet, I chose to post todays inquiry on an interview of Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert with Radio France International. The francophone station, of course, broadcasts in Lebanon on 96.2 MHz.“Political [...]

Yesterday, Beyrouth fell to the Opposition, and then given back to the Army to restore the peace.Today, several villages in the district of Aley, including Aaytat and Baysur, fell to the Druze opposition leader, Talal Arslan.Walid Jumblatt, a member of the ruling coalition, and leader of the country’s Druze community, urged Talal Arslan, his political [...]

by Hooman MajdIf there were ever a perfect example of the Bush administration’s utterly bankrupt, and provably impotent, foreign policy, it would have to be the State Department’s reaction to events in Beyrouth over the last few days. The laughably weak U.S.-backed Lebanese government, in what can only be described as a moment of insanity, decided last week [...]

    Well, as predicted, the government backed down on its decision of ruling out the removal of head chief of security at the International Airport, and gave the decision up to the Lebanese National Army to decide on Hezbollahs’ underground communications network, if it benefits the Lebanese people, and whether it truly secures the Lebanese [...]

Today morning, the western hemisphere woke up to the news of West Beyrouth being taken over (we’re all Lebanese anyway), by the opposition.Sayyed Nasrallah’s words still echo in my ear…Our Weapons, are not for internal use… will not be used for internal use… Though, I have to admit, he has been patient; till they finally [...]

May 2, 2008 - Ferry Corsten @ BIEL, BeyrouthWondering about todays’ post?Well… I feel things are starting to repeat themselves, so I suggest re-reading old posts. You Are The Victim.

A Khalass! spot Ad.Here’s a mirror of our society.Each one of us is to blame. 

Please let me be frank and release some fumes through this post. Lebanon topped todays news in most western countries. Once again, the barbaric decadence of Lebanese shown on TV confuses most here in the west, as to whether they were Palestinians or Lebanese, or what have you.The worst part of all this, is that [...]

     Israel, where one of the world most innovative tech industry, comparative to Silicon Valley has launched a new web-based idea. Awkward for a country like Israel to come up with a website that allows users to file complaints against anyone or anything, argue their case, have the community choose sides, and ultimately vote on [...]

Neither do the other fools on this blog. Comments are still disabled.If you haven’t already, listen to Chapter 1 before listening to these lectures.Chapter [...]

The new Riviera Beach Club will start taking bookings for the private Bungalow and VIP deck, for the month of July & August, fifty days, and counting.This will be a great add on to Lebanon’s vibrant nightlife and tourism industry. If only our politicians, will set on a sail to never never land with their [...]
