Disgusting Politics


It’s amazing what we Lebanese perceive as politics... WE Adore liars, protect them and work for them...
You see, it starts off with a favor, but that favor is never really free, is it...
It wouldn’t be long before you find yourself weak, fragile, and unable to speak your mind, biting your lip for so many...
But in a country that’s based on “wasta” connections... what are we to do?
Lay down and just take it ? ...

A house that isn't yours...


What do we want?
What exactly do you need? Food? Education , Medical? , Do you want to live in a nation where you are safe?
Are you not Tired?
Are you really Relaxed and Happy?
If you are walking down the streets in Beirut or any other city in Lebanon, Can you honestly say that the families that live in these houses around you are happy, Are really Really happy?
You fight for people that don’t know you, while your son looks at you wondering when will be the next meal...
Are You not tired?
Really?
I see new buildings built to house, houses not homes... I see a fake smile in every child, a made up feel of security, A country that’s made for visitors but not its own people...
Imagine living in a house made only to welcome outsiders, where your bed is made of thorns, and your drinking water is acid, you brush your teeth with a saw, and sell your soul every time you get out your room to pleasure those visitors and actually get to join them in the living room, where they flourish and get all the best ...but in the end of the day you go back to your room,
You’ve spent most of your money in the living room, you are alone again.... on your bed of thorns... drinking the same acidic water...
Living in a house that isn't yours...

The Gods


Why is it that our system is dependent on who you know?
We bend down like dogs and ask for help from those who are rich and powerful!, those who are the embodiment of religion, We defend them as we would defend our own parents, and to a certain extent, we would side by them against our parents....
Why? Who are these people? They are the modern age deities... they are simply gods...
We fight in their name, we kill for them, and we defend their pictures! And cling on to their every word!
Face it ... Lebanese Worship those “Leaders” ... From now on... I’ll refer to them as the gods, a much suitable name...
Think about it... and you’ll see exactly what I mean...
Don’t Worship the Gods ... for they will only bring pain and misery...

We Start Now


So, what now?

After all the wars that we went through, after all the crap and all the killing that we took part in weather we liked it or not , weather we had a choice or even knew about it.

We all are to blame, even the ones that are trying to make a difference, every one...

We saw it happen and we did nothing, I too am guilty of this, but what can we do? Seriously!
What can we exactly do to change? The sad reality is that the system is so corrupt at this stage, changing it is almost impossible, Almost a lost cause.

...who are you? A Question that murdered thousands...

It’s about time we answer Lebanese, and nothing more, neither religion nor heritage...

We start now...
