ENOUGH!


Tripoli, Saida and the Bekaa valley in fire...
Beirut is next...
Militia, tribes and armed wings, snipers, missiles, bombs... 
The Lebanese army under attack...
Hate speeches and extreme sectarian divisions...
Militarized intervention, armed conflict and declarations of all-out war...
Religious and political leaders calling for retaliation or pointing fingers or just doing 'NOTHING'!
A paralyzed and corrupted State,
and even more lethargic people, living in denial and/or in ghettos...
If this is not war, can anyone tell me what war looks like?
War is a vicious circle, physical and psychological, and Lebanese didn't break it.
Don't you think it's time to wake up and fight back?
We are losing our country, our lives, our children's future!
For those who think that what is happening is temporary, punctual: you are mistaken!
For my university students and Lebanese youth : wake up! Enough schisms! Enough blindness and ignorance!
Enough saying 'MA FI CHI'!!
Is this really a tradition we want to maintain - either violence or the ostrich attitude?
In both cases, we are doomed!!!
