Lebanon was the only Christian-majority nation in the Middle East.
It's where I was born.
We prided ourselves on inclusivity. Always welcoming Arab Muslim refugees from all over the Middle East.
We had the best economy despite having no natural oil. The best universities.
They called Beirut the "Paris of the Middle East" and the Mountains of Lebanon was a tourist destination.
My early childhood was idyllic, my father was a prosperous businessman in town and my mother was at home with me, an only child.
Slowly, the Arab Muslims began to become the majority in Lebanon and our rights began to wither away.
Soon, we would find ourselves unable to leave our small Christian town without fear of being stopped and killed by Arabs. In Lebanon your religion is on your government issued ID.
As the war intensified and the radical Islamists made their way south, my home was hit by an errant rocket and my life was forever changed.
We spent the next almost decade in a bomb shelter, scraping together pennies and eating dandelions and roots just to survive.
If it was not for Israel coming in and surrounding our town, I do not know If I would be here today.
Lebanon is now a country 100% controlled and run by Hezbollah. I lost my country of birth.
I thank God every single day I was able to immigrate to America and live out the dream that BILLIONS of people only dream of having.
Now here in America, my adopted country that I have come to love so much, I see the same threats and warning signs happening now that took place in Lebanon when I was a child.
This is my warning to you, America, reverse course now while you still can.
It's not too late to save our freedom and preserve it for the next generation.
When the Christian Europeans pushed the Jews into Palestine, and the Jews pushed the Palestinians into Lebanon, Syria, Egypt and elsewhere, it stands to reason the Christians were displaced too. Like dominoes, there tends to be a knock on effect.
No l'm afraid you missed the point by introducing your Pro-Israel, Pro-Christian "agenda". When l say "introduced" l am referring to your repetative cut 'n paste of a "history" of a Lebanese village that your family left when you were 2 years old. I am however glad your family found safety in Minnesota, USA wher you are able to enjoy Freedom of Speech & Freedom of Religion.
PS Did you see Dmitri Lascarus' Substack video this morning of the southern Lebanese village that has been destroyed?
Brigitte Gabriel is the author and a spokeswoman against the evils of Islam and especially the Palestinians, she is a Christian refugee and authored that peace and has written many books and has spoken since the Arabs made her a refugee from Lebanon a formerly Christian Nation look into her get some objective perspective instead of some regurgitation of Dimitri's Hezbollah bullshit from the formerly great nation of Lebanon. Gad Saad is a Lebanese Jew who is a professor in Canada and speaks of the lamentable nature of Islam and specifically the Palestinians and they're forever grudge against the Jews and Humanity, forever victims forever wicked and all the evidence is in your face this week and your daring to point your bony witchy fingers at Israel
In 1936 (the British Mandate for Palestine lasted from 1920 to 1948) it was the Jews that called enthusiastically adopted the name Palestinian. They named their institutions, like banks and orchestras and newspapers, Palestinian. The Arabs were enraged by this. They complained to the Peel Commission of 1936 that the name Palestine was an offensively Jewish name! Specifically their spokesman said that "Palestine is alien to the Arabs."
Three decades later they became the Ancient Palestinian People. What rubbish!
Trump's executive order banning "anti-Semitic" speech will be shot down by the courts and the First Amendment in the US. Is there any chance anything similar will happen in Canada? Serious question; I really don't know.
Think over 20 US states have anti-BDS laws (boycott, divest, sanction) regarding Israel. DeSantis, the governor of Florida, signed his state’s law while he was in Israel. Americans can do all these things regarding the U.S. but many can’t regarding Israel.
Who cares about such state laws? They can’t stop you from NOT buying something, are unconstitutional, and therefore not deserving of either respect of obedience.

I don't understand how Israel supporters can deny -- or justify -- this stuff:
"Euro-Med Monitor” found that 9 out of every 10 people killed by Israel in Gaza are civilians and the UN found that 70 percent of people killed are “women and children”, “the ages most represented among the dead were five to nine-year-olds” and “80% of victims were killed in residential buildings or similar housing”.
As Frederick Douglass surmised the hypocrisy of slavery made it impossible for the United States to tolerate free speech and an educated oppressed who could read. So it follows that the Marshall Plan would restore a Europe also allergic to free speech; whenever apartheid, the primary export of also Canada and Australia, is at stake. Thanks for listing the time and place of these Palestinian McCartyisms.
What a bunch of garbage. You are upset that you can’t get enough support as the world’s favorite victim so now you cry that you can’t spread more lies. Pathetic.
I didn’t accuse you directly. However, those on the left stood silent or cheered, when their political rivals were silenced, demonetized and banned. Covid would be a reference point to start.

Read your history. What you call Lebanon was part of the Ottoman empire for hundreds of years with the christians prospering relatively in that part of the empire…until the western Europeans took over and all hell broke lose. First in Palestine then the sikes picot carved lebanon specifically to make it majority christian….now we see the results of western civilized management.
You would have been better off under muslim empire
In the 1930s and 40s western powers, including Canada persumably, were silent about the European Jews. Now everyone is very very busy about being seen to be loudly concerned about anisemitism. Better late than never. Of course then it to took courage to speak out for Jews. Now it pays to.
So, you’ll agree that most of the government wasn’t Russian. And the revolution was funded by Western bankers. The Bolsheviks hated the Russians and that’s why they killed so many.
The first law passed after the Bolshevik revolution in Russia was an anti-Semitism law, punishable by death. 2/3 of the Bolshevik Russian government were Jews. To be anti-communist was considered to be anti-Semitic. Look what that government did in Holodomor and elsewhere. The government was cruel.
Anti-semitism laws are not about protecting people; it’s to give the powerful a weapon.
Russian President Vladimir Putin stated that at least 80 percent of the members of the first Soviet government were Jewish. However, historical records indicate that the first Soviet government had only one Jewish member, Leon Trotsky, who was the founder of the Red Army
It's so easy to debunk you Russian stooges or whatever agenda planet file cabinet of bullshit you dwell on
My reading of history was that nobody wanted an influx of European Jews into their (Christian) country and when the western heads of state fell upon the little known Zionist movement, their prayers were answered.
All the anti-semites got together and basically said "Let's give them their own country and solve the Jewish Question once and for all". After the end of WWII someone found an old memo from 1917 by Lord Balfour saying that Britain would not object to the Jews taking the Palestinian territory off their hands, Israel was born and the Jewish Question was solved.
The Arab nations were glad to be rid of the British and French occupiers and expected Palestine would be returned to Arab control, but no one told them the Jews would be arriving en masse.
Now we have Trump thinking he can just give away the Gaza Strip to make room for more Jews and the neighbours will absorb 2 million Palestinian refugees (or else). SMH

You missed the point
Perhaps you are obtuse
Perhaps you are an Islamic deflectionist
Jews have yearned to dwell, be in and return to Israel ever since they were expelled by the Romans.
Reread the article perhaps you might absorb some truth instead of reinforcing your agenda

Completely off topic. I go blind reading white on black.
I find the article interesting and would love to read more .....but my eyes just can't!
I like the white on black, but I've had enough people say this to me that I suppose it's time to change it.
My eyes say Thank You!!
Aw, man!
I liked it!
But we do want everybody to be able to read it.
